Have you ever wondered how industry leaders navigate the often unpredictable and ever-changing landscape of the nursery and hydroponics industry?

In episode 8 of the GroShow Podcast, host Riley Jones chats with Sparetime Supply President/CEO Andrew Hosford and Regional Sales Manager Travis Mitzel. During the show, we cover everything from the origin of the "Sparetime" name and the celebration of their 40th anniversary to the challenges facing many nurseries and large-scale distributors nowadays and the importance of staying ahead of the curve.

Later, we discussed the growing popularity of the Improved Gro-Slabs with pre-cut holes, the added benefit of Grodan’s green knowledge and the release of Pargro, an easy-to-use stone wool growing media ideal for boutique or craft growers looking to transition from coco or soil.

And last but not least, we touched on Sparetime Supply’s upcoming Summer Expo, which takes place on August 10-11, 2023, at Recreation Grove in Willits, CA. For more information and to register for the event, visit www.sparetimesupply.com/summer-expo.
