A Blue Planet Nutrients initial review: Part 1
Okay, first off, I had been in contact with Corey from BPN for a few months for various reasons. So I contacted him about the volume of my reservoirs and the speed that my space uses nutrient solution, and the shelf life of the actual product.
He was open and honest about shelf life in ideal conditions, and problems I could encounter if the base concentrates ever met adverse conditions and made me aware that colors may fade over time, but it in now way affects the nutrients. Really, who does that? No large-scale commercial product supplier I know of, but Corey does... that's the only one I know of.
Regarding my grow reservoirs, I was unsure of the sizes I should purchase, quart, or gallon. My concern was that if I got the quart size 3-part and ran through it in under a year, and needed to reorder this year, I should have just gotten the gallon size, because with shipping it would be about the same price for 2 separate quart shipments as 1 of the gallon shipments. He took into account suggested res change frequency, and the amount that my space uses in a week. I'm also pretty sure that since he knows who I am, that he checked my journals here for res sizes both in the Flower Box (2@4Gal) and for my mother bin (2Gal) and told me that I'd be better off getting the gallon of the Elite 3-part, and only a quart of the Liquid Blue. Again, open and honest. He could have told me that I needed the gallon of Liquid Blue just to upsell, but he didn't. He had my actual needs in mind and made the honest suggestion of proper sizes to buy. If I was talking to some large-scale outsourced rep with any of the other companies, I most probably would have been guided to buy more than I would use in a year before they expired, gone bad, and I would have wasted nutrients, and money.
I also want to point out this from the website:

It's true people... He really does care, and he proved it. He continues to prove it here, every day. He doesn't just sit back and hope for your business, he EARNS IT. The fact that he's here with us, helping IN THIS FORUM, in the individual threads, shows us that. This is what drew me to BPN in the first place. The fact that I knew that if I was having trouble with the nutrients, he's subscribed to my thread, so all I have to do is ask in the thread, and I get the answer. I don't have to sit on the phone, listening to bad music, hoping that the person speaks my language, and that they know something about the nutrients they're hawking. He does it here, for all to see. Again.... Open and honest.
To Corey: I know you're reading this now. My hat's off to you. You have earned a lifelong customer. Even if I have problems, I know we will work them through together, and it will be chronicled here for others to learn from it. I still want to shake your hand someday.
