This is really cool KGB! I’ve been reading up on Earth Boxes now and the concept looks very similar to the GroBucket…..except that you layer in nutrients and lime in your medium. I’m subscribed…..can’t wait to see how this turns out.

Thanks MariJan. It’s a small tent (2x4) and an accumulation of many parts and accessories over the years. I also like to experiment and fiddle around with it constantly (too often to be real).

Last night I upgraded the AC Infinity controller to their model that allows me to control 8 pieces of equipment. That allowed me to add a humidifier, heater and side LED lamps to the controller. Overall, it maintained a stable growing environment and a much warmer evening for my garden than my...

Thank you Oscarzuma! I was wondering about the differences between their mixes. I’ll check my local Home Depot and Lowe’s to see what they each carry.

Thanks!!! That’s definitely going to be my next medium. Not only is it easier than hydrating and buffering coco coir, but it should be readily available at my hardware store. Appreciate the guidance!!

Hey Greenmobster, Funny you brought that up….I’m still smoking that one this week since I found two half-filled jars in my stash. Thats a really nice smoke and that was one of my best grows. I’ve been reading a few posts and I see you run Pro mix and Jacks? Is there a specific type of Pro mix...

Exciting day today….. I’ll be tearing apart the tent to re-run the wires to my Controller. I plan to add a replacement heater, hook up my humidifier, and move the AC Infinity Controller to a better location. I discovered a new type of heater that is built specifically for safe use in grow...

Thank you! It feels good to be back in the tent. Plus I’ll have more indoor time in winter to dedicate to growing and journaling the grow.

Hello MP forum! It’s been a year since I’ve grown and I haven’t been around much. I see some familiar names still posting, so I decided to come back and post my grow here. My last grow turned into a disaster. I used Infrared and Ultraviolet lighting too much which resulted in seeded feminized...

Beautiful grow Old Fogey!! These definitely survived and thrived while you were on vacation. Now that you’ve seen the final results, I’m curious to hear your opinion on quadlining. Was it worth the extra veg time?

Peppers…….and hopefully plenty of them this year since I’m the only one in the house who likes peppers. I don’t have a yard…..just a deck, so this is the extent of my first attempt at summer gardening. Two Japanese shishito peppers, sweet jalapeño, sweet heat, lunchbox, Fresno, Aji Rico...

Hi OldFogey, your plants look great! I’m intrigued by your experience with Jacks as I can’t make sense of their website. Is it this two part system that I attached? I tried switching from Flora series to MegaCrop this year and my big issue is that the dry powder doesn’t mix well with water...

Yes, I agree OldFogey. Much longer veg, but it sure pays dividends in the end with a full even canopy. I look forward to watching your results given how well you trained them early on. On the BluMat carrots, I tried two different BluMat systems many years ago. Both times, I believe I failed...

I’m not sure how combining top feeding with bottom feeding would work. I have primarily used bottom feeding through the reservoir so that the roots targeted growth towards the bottom third of the planter. The top layers of coco are very dry using the self watering bases. In cases where I did...

Interesting…..I’ve had a lot of success with their self-watering reservoirs. I used coco and perlite instead of soil, but it worked great for me. That’s my favorite grow method (sub irrigated planter with coco). Good luck with your fans…..you should hear soon.

Same experience here as KGBSkunky. They took a few more than one business day. I responded to their email after 2-3 business days and asked if they needed any more information and requested to chat soon. Then I heard back the following day. I’m still impressed with this company…they’re...

I submitted a request to replace one AC Infinity fan on Saturday. I sent them four order numbers (two from Amazon, two from ACI) and explained that I didn’t know which order was used to purchase the one loud fan. As KGBSkunky also experienced, AC Infinity in turn decided to replace all fans...

Hey OldFogey, I’m on the hunt for a watering system as well for an upcoming vacation. Sounds like you might be trying BluMats? If not, is there another watering system you like? The moisture sensing aspect sounds interesting.

I have multiple 69 controllers (pro and Bluetooth) and their smallest humidifier…all very good quality in my experience.

These Cloudray fans have been really dependable fans for me. I treated fans as disposable before purchasing these. One fan has become overly loud while oscillating. I contacted AC Infinity and they said it would be replaced. Thanks for the heads up. Here’s the link for anyone else with fan...
