    So you are the ones stealing all the FSU's :D. I ran those exclusively in my Hastings last winter and there almost wasn't an HD around here that didn't have them most of the season. This year I haven't seen any.

    Our local HD usually is loaded with GS's. This season it looks to be all FSU. They either have something decent or total crap. :loco: :crazy:

    What brand is yours carrying??

    Our HD's are carrying Stove Chows and ThermaGlows. At least one HD is carrying 5 different brands, or at least was a couple of weeks ago (don't remember what, but probably GS was in there)

    Fear not. You will get some FSUs soon too. They come in "waves" of different brands around here. They will 10 truckloads of a certain brand, then the next 10 is the next brand, and so forth and so on. You should see the ocean of pellets at the store with 1100+ tons. There is an area for each brand they have gotten since they started building their inventory. Maine's Choice, Therma-Glo, Nation's Choice, Big Heat, Green Supreme, North Americans, Stove Chows, and FSUs now. Haven't seen any Heat'rs show up yet this year, bet they will be coming soon. Still hoping some Blazers and my favorite (PTL Softies) will show up at some local stores later in October / November.

    If you want the very best, you have to be willing to pay more for them!

    If it's the same mill that bagged the ones I burned last December, it's next to a plastics recycling plant which they are using for feed-stock. :loco: :crazy:

    Worst pellet I burnt last season! The new dirt in the bag winners. Saving up some dog poo for them. Might make a better end product??

    I don't think so, Bio Plus still owns several industrial pellet mills. Probably got them filling them??

    Was at TSC yesterday and they had GS (too many to count) and about 9 tons of Georgia Peach Products hardwood (UPC: 0949221705624).
    For yuks I called another TSC and they said they have GS and Associated Harvest Co. (UPC: 0098607543211). Both placed are priced at $264.50

    This weekend HD had the back lot filled with NWP and GS.

    I could purchase a couple of bunnies, bag the end-product,call it "P.....ton Plus", and sell a premium version of pellet.

    That would make sense, given the contents of the mess I burned here.

    I don't think so either, ThermaGlo is actually on my list of pellets to try.. Also keeping an eye out for your product up here.

    Fred I never heard of Georgia Peach Products or Associated Harvest Co. What are these, do you know? Ever seen or heard of them before?

    Also what is the meaning of NWP?

    I saw some softwoods at two local TSC stores about a month ago and they were in the most generic looking bags and wrap I've ever seen. No UPC to be found visible on the bags. I did minimal research based on a terse label on the outside of the pallet and came to the conclusion they came from a fairly local lumber store in MA. Wonder if that is similar to what you are seeing?
