Building Cincinnati’s Most Trusted Hydroponics Store

Hey, I’m Jacob Kerekes and I’ve been a passionate cannabis grower since 1998.
For many of those years, I thought about opening a commercial grow facility. But I quickly learned that owning a commercial operation means you’re stuck in the office, not in the grow room.
Then it hit me.
During the California gold rush, everyone chased gold. Most failed.
But the people who really hung in there—the ones still in business today—were the hardware stores selling pickaxes and shovels.
I wanted to be the “pickaxe and shovel” guy for the growing world.
I Wanted to Build
a Grow Shop Where
So I became an authorized vendor for every quality brand I trust, found a space in West Chester with a proper loading dock, and fought through the permit process.
The Superior Difference: For Growers, By Growers
We’re not trying to be the biggest. We’re trying to be the best.
After two decades of growing, I know what products actually deliver results and which ones are expensive hype. That’s why we only carry what we’d use ourselves—and why we became the only local BuildASoil and Preferred Athena AG dealer in Ohio.
We’ve built exclusive relationships with breeders other stores can’t replicate.
We price-match Amazon because we’d rather have you as a customer for life than maximize one sale.
And we’re here for you beyond the transaction—grow visits, after-hours calls, troubleshooting from seed to harvest.
This isn’t just retail. It’s community.
Customers drive from Northern Kentucky, Dayton, Columbus, even 2+ hours away because they save money on shipping and take products home the same day instead of waiting. They come back because we actually help them succeed, not just sell them gear.
