Greetings, folks.
Please be aware of the terms of service and forum etiquette.
My current situation spurred the need for this discussion - which all are welcome to read and participate in. We want to stay as positive as possible with this discussion but also provide a serious critique about concerns or issues you may come up with. I want to avoid posting links to seller websites as it's unneccessary and we aren't here to sell something. Open, honest discussion only. If you own or use one - post pics to back up your position on why it's a critique or why it's positive.
Looking to start a discussion about automatic grow boxes. I've spent many months reading reviews and articles. Imo, the reviews aren't reliable because most of them just sound fake - be it overly gushing with positivity or unfairly bashing the product. The articles are hard to determine if they are written by an actual person who used it or if it's just a company paying for a solidly positive review. Do some researching and you'll see what I mean.
I've looked at cloudponics [apparently bankrupt?], leaf, grobo, bc northern lights grow box and spinnerxp. All appear great in theory and all amazingly expensive [imo]. Do you know of any other companies?
Issues I've read about that seem legit relates to light leaks and smell problems that occurred because of poor manufacturing or damage that occurred during shipping.
Does anyone have experience with an automated growbox that can detail their experience? How automated was it? What odor control mechanisms were effective and what did you do to assist in odor control? Yes, I'm aware there will always be smell.
If you can avoid openly endorsing a company or openly bashing a product please feel free to participate.
About me: moderate experience with moderate results. Love outdoor but can't do it anymore. Indoor might be an option but it has to be reliable and actually automated.
Once a discussion happens maybe we'll have a vote to determine which I'll buy [if any] and I'll post a grow journal with it.
Love yall, I dont expect much conversation about the topic because these units are so expensive and I doubt there are many folks who have purchased one, let alone multiple from different manufacturers.
So please chime in with your thoughts, concerns, and critique.
