Acinfinity 6” fans (2)
Acinfinity EVO8 light
Acinfinity 6” exhaust/intake fan
Acinfinity T3 humidifier.
Acinfinity 69 Pro + controller.
3’x3’ Sustainableliving.com Grassroots fabric bed.

Blumat water system. Single “carrot” in the center with the drip tape system. Homemade 15 gallon reservoir. Water is just tap water ran thru a cheap inline filter to remove chlorine.

Had some issues with the seedlings. Bad soil I believe. Lost one and had to repop.

I also tried using magnetized water for everything for these plants. I did this for the first month or two of their life.

On 26Feb25 I topped the two plants on the right and the front one on the left. Didn’t top the back left because it was just slower growing and didn’t look right for it.

Had some issues with growth but corrected itself. Lots of watering issues trying to dial in the Blumat.

Made a screen with some 1.5” pvc and some paracord.

Having an issue with fungus gnats. As I wasn’t preemptive with beneficial nematodes. Lesson learned. I’m slowly getting rid of them now.

Made a second screen. Just because. Or maybe I’m hoping the buds will be so heavy and dripping they’ll need the support.

I wanted to redirect the inlet air from hitting the side of my bed, to blowing across the soil surface. Used foam board and made this box to go from 6” duct, to 4 smaller circles to disburse the air.
You can kind of see it there.

They got so bushy I needed both circulating fans on top to move the air. Since I had an extra online fan laying around I cut and taped a trash bag to make a tube. Cut holes to direct airflow up. Works pretty good.

I flipped to Flower on 24Mar25. This was about 7 weeks of veg time. Probably too much but another lesson learned.

I think that the single trellis net would have more than enough but than again im not the one growing the strain and dont know how she acts

This is a different way of getting some air under the canopy why not just an oscillating fan?

How do you enjoy the earth box that you are currently using is there anything you dont like about the box? I was thinking about getting 2 for my 4x6 grow tent but than I was thinking about just building a 4x4 Ebb and flow flood table in the 4x6 tent so we shall see how everything goes
