      I'm not sure why he appears to use two smart switches. I built mine with a 120v 2 pole contactor relay inside a 6" plastic junction box. It's activated by one smart switch. I'm using a Feit smart switch, but I may buy a Kasa or other brand, Feit smart switches are unreliable.

It's been a bit of a struggle figuring out how to get started, I thought maybe Farmers markets would be a good stepping stone, so I've been very curious on other people's process that are already in the game. I appreciate your willingness to share your knowledge! Mushlove!

    Thanks for the honest review, I'm currently running 2x 23qt prestos and really looking for something more efficient on a larger scale. I'm UK so will have to probably order from China so like u said with lead times it'll be long. Love the timer function I'm always waiting for them to finish before I can relax as heard so many people forgetting or accidentally letting them run dry. Love the fact that it's just plug and play! I was expecting it to be 3 phase and have to all be installed by an electrician.

    Surprised you don't use paper bags they keep the mushrooms fresher or cardboard boxes. I understand that the plastic containers are reusable but they actually do the opposite. I was just wondering your opinion on this.

    3 tons of AC in one insulated grow area? Where is this grow op? Where is this heat coming from? Amazing operation I'm just curious where this heat load is coming from because I'm considering a commercial grow? Is it a CO2 issue? edit: I was just thinking, you oversized so you wouldn't be dehumidifying? What temperature are you maintaining? Are yields better at the lower end of the grow range? There may be a better more efficient way to achieve the conditions. I hope you read this. Let me know.

    @stormagorist6129 9 месяцев назад

    Thanks for another great video. How much extra production does this allow? You said you expect output to be 12-1500 lbs a week, which is amazing, but what were you doing before? Just trying to think about my own growth and what to expect. I'm currently at about 120 sq ft for my grow room, which I could use much more efficiently. I think that will suit me for a while yet, but I'm trying to keep my eyes on the future.. Thanks again.

    • @longbeachmushrooms
      @longbeachmushrooms 9 месяцев назад

      Before we were doing 550-800 lbs a week in about 400sf of grow space when we were using tents. The number fluctuated depending on what strains we were growing.

    It's great to see how well your business is progressing, I do find it inspirational. The new grow rooms are really fantastic, the sliding doors I haven't seen before but I think they will make life a lot easier, you wont miss the zippers!!! I've just bought a clean room from a Rolls Royce auction for the princely sum of £50 (around $70), it's made from glass fibre panels and measures 30' x 13' x 9', it will be insulated and clad on the outside with board, I'll probably split it into 3 grow rooms and ditch the tents, I think they are awful.
