5 Best Hydroponics Shops in Winnipeg Where Locals with Green Thumbs Go
I saw my friend’s hydroponics garden, and honestly, I was floored. It was lush and thriving—no dirt, no mess, just pure green goodness growing like magic.
The best part is that hydroponics gardening brings faster growth, bigger yields, and way less hassle than traditional gardening.
Right then and there, I knew I had to get in on it. If you’re like me and ready to dive into the world of hydroponics, here are the best shops in Winnipeg to get you started!
How much does hydroponics equipment cost in Winnipeg?
In Winnipeg, you can spend between $50 to $10,000 on a hydroponic system, with most standard setups ranging from $1,000 to $2,500.
Basic systems with minimal features are more affordable, while advanced systems with larger capacities and specialized components cost significantly more. Prices vary depending on the size, materials, and features of the equipment.

My Two Sons is a one-stop shop for hydroponics, plant-growing supplies, and even cannabis-related products. This family-owned business has been around since 2003, and you can tell they know their stuff.
Their product selection is seriously impressive. From plant nutrients and grow lights to pots and grow mediums, they carry everything you’d need to grow pretty much any kind of plant.
And if you need help figuring out what lighting is best or what plant food will yield the tastiest tomatoes, simply ask the staff. They’re knowledgeable and genuinely helpful, offering honest advice (or sometimes even nutrient debates)!
Once your veggies (or whatever you’re growing) are thriving, you can check out their excellent selection of high-quality glassware and vaporizers.
Note that some of their big-ticket items can get a little pricey, so it’s worth shopping around before you commit.
Without a doubt the best hydroponic shop in Winnipeg
“Without a doubt the best hydroponic shop in Winnipeg, massive selection of popular brands and products. The staff is incredibly helpful and gives honest answers to questions about products. Pricing is comparable to other shops and cheaper than Amazon. I still remember my first time popping in to get some general liquid fertilizer and was recommended a very affordable product, never felt pressured or upsold into other products (they actually told me once not to waste my money on a particular product and recommended something 1/3rd the price). I have had nothing but positive experiences and everyone on staff is awesome.”

We also love their great selection of bulbs and lamps—from Eye Hortilux CMH Lamps to Florasun High Pressure Sodium Bulbs.
Add in their grow tents, propagation kits, and climate and odor control systems, and you’ve got a one-stop shop for building a top-tier hydroponic setup.
While their physical shop is small and may not show off everything they offer, their online inventory is much more extensive. Plus, shopping online can score you up to 30% off, which is a nice bonus.
Great spot for all your hydroponic needs

3. Little Greenhouse That Could
Address: Winnipeg
Phone: (204) 899-2647
Business hours:
- Mon – Fri, Sun: 7 AM – 7 PM
The Little Greenhouse That Could is owned by Trina Semenchuk, a Biosystems Engineer in training with a big vision. She wants to make Winnipeg (and Manitoba!) a global leader in vertical farming.
Her shop is known for the Harvest Wall, an indoor vertical grow wall designed to maximize food production. It’s perfect for anyone looking to grow indoors without the hassle, thanks to its unique “Vertigation” system that takes care of watering for you.
If you’re after something high-end, the double-panel Harvest Wall with LED lights is a showstopper, offering options with 72, 90, or 108 ports to suit your needs.
Tech-savvy growers will also appreciate their Harvest Today App, which lets you schedule watering times directly from your device. It’s like having a personal assistant for your garden!
The only downside is the price—these systems are definitely not cheap.
Her indoor growing system has given us delicious greens
“Trina is a first rate communicator and educator who loves to get people growing. Her indoor growing system has given us delicious greens all winter.”
— Robb Massey, Google Review
Trina and her team are so fantastic
“Trina and her team are so fantastic when it comes to helping understand vertical farming, how to get started, and how to succeed. They clearly know what they are talking about, but are also able to explain it in a way that really makes sense. You can also tell how passionate they are about helping more people discover how great vertical farming can be, and how accessible it is once you know what you’re doing. If you’re thinking about getting into vertical farming, this is definitely a business you’re going to want to talk with.”

This spot offers a comprehensive range of essentials, including nutrients, fertilizers, and supplements, as well as water, filtration, pumps, and irrigation equipment. These are often bought with grow lighting to help your plants thrive.
For those focused on indoor gardening, their indoor grow tents provide excellent climate control to help optimize growth. Timers, meters, and controllers are on offer as well.
Now, if you’re shopping on a budget, we recommend checking out their website for online promotions. There are amazing deals where you can snag items for up to half off!
Sadly, we heard about their rude staff, which could make in-store visits less enjoyable.
Explained all kinds of stuff about hydroponics in detail
“As someone setting up their first indoor system these guys went above and beyond for me. I was probably in their shop for 3 hours while they explained all kinds of stuff about hydroponics to me in detail. They took the time to help me design a system and then put together a parts list for me. I can honestly say that these guys saved me a ton of headaches compared to if I had tried to put together my own system myself and just ordered everything online. There is definitely something to be said for the support you get when you deal with someone locally. Thanks for all your help and I look forward to continuing to deal with you in the future!”

To sweeten the deal, free shipping on orders over $125 is available. They even host seasonal online sales with discounts as high as 50%!
Sadly, we heard that not all of their staff might be super knowledgeable about gardening, so you might need to talk to the owner or manager.
