Similarly, plenty of residents of the permanent, transient, and collegiate varieties dabble in green thumbery for personal or profitable reasons. And without the slightest judgment thereof from this Yelper, any horticultural effort that will result in any level of success requires both the correct supplies to get the job done, and the knowledge to apply things with the right frequency, timing, order, and amounts. All that as prologue to my stop in at Big Daddy. Fully a tourist on my trip, I ducked in to see what this store was all about. While it was essentially stocked with the usual garden center stuff, there were whole aisles dedicated to nutrients, soil and substrate amendments, containers... if you need it, it seemed to be here. I can't say I interacted with staff here... come to think of it, I don't recall being approached by or pursuing help from anyone while I was there. Per other reviews, this isn't the only game in town, and what do I know as a "just passing thru" guy contemplating next season's back yard tomatoes? But all in all, if you have a rudimentary understanding of things like 12-12 and 16-8 lighting, you know guano from guava, and can explain how NPK values change outcomes, you should be able to find what you need here without getting your socks wet.

Helpful, kind and warm is how I'd describe the people working there...can't say enough about this wonderful place. Thank You for being in Ukiah!

Three Sisters sells with all kinds of colorful trinkets, most of which have a healing spiritual energy to them. They also carry jewelry, cards, candles/incense from what I recall, and useful supplies for those in a healing profession. Among everything I saw, my favorites were the colorful sea turtles, healing stones, and office 'signage'. A great place to buy a gift for someone or to treat yourself. We are truly lucky to have this locally owned shop in Ukiah. I highly recommend and will be back again soon myself!

I was told by a nice salesman that they need to move back stock around so they can get it in the floor to restock and cut it! I should call back in a few hours to see if that was done. I've called back between 4-8:30 7 times I was put on hold , transferred and then was disconnected. What does it take for reasonable service? This is ridiculous for a $600+ purchase to be treated this way! I guess only game in the area you can treat customers as poorly as you want to! What a shame

I used Apple tap to pay with a debit card that was compromised later that day. the bank canceled that card (what timing?!) so... when I went to return the item, I was turned away because I could not use the tap method. they could not find the purchase and told me that I should just "sell it on eBay" or Google our corporate phone number if that doesn't work. This was my absolute worst experience with Home Depot's customer service department EVER! I was (not) helped by a young woman named Lily. I don't know how a company would hire somebody with that terrible of customer service skills to be their on site manager. but once I raised enough chaos with other cashiers, I found another manager that was totally willing to help me? and they resolved my situation with store credit. (Amazing!) I was absolutely blown away that somebody would tell me to "sell it on eBay" as my only other option since they couldn't 'prove' that I actually purchased this item in the store. Somehow, my bank records were not enough. I knew exactly what register I bought it on, and we went to that register and looked up the history, found it, and resolved it very quickly!! ... albeit no thanks to Lily. Hanna, the other supervisor on duty for cashiers was AMAZING!!!!! So helpful, nice, and had empathy that totally refreshed my faith. What is up with the younger generation??! No social skill, empathy, or general pleasantness. Like you are being paid to help customers specifically... do the job don't patronize me. Thank you Hanna!!!! Hanna deserves 5 stars but I want this to be noticed! Hence giving one star above the lowest possible option

I did leave without buying the grow tent i wanted that they said they had in stock, because when they went to look, they couldn't find them. just like the lights, i'm assuming they were there somewhere. or there computer systems needs updating. things moved slow... (laid back a bit) but i liked it, I enjoyed the laid back atmosphere. one guy would try to help me, and he took off to go get answers, but would often not return, but it didnt bother me. they were busy, and i found him helping other people. Then i asked for help again, the person i asked, tried to help, but i could tell he really didnt know specifics enough to help me, but an unexpected employee "Matt" came in for a few minutes for whatever reason, and this guy asked Matt if he had time to help me. he was honest and said no, he was in a hurry and "it was his day off" He approached me im sure hoping he could answer my questions quickly and get going. He spent about 15 minutes with me. answered all my questions and really hit it out of the ball park. pros, epic staff great prices huge selection Cons for me they are about 50 miles away. I couldn't recommend a hydro store more. They have earned my repeat business, Highly recommended.
