Have you guys noticed an increase in bugs on your plants or inside the house?

UV into a carbon filter recirculating, minimal air turnover, running a piezoelectric HVAC heating/cooling system.
Wouldn't work on a big system - but works for my little world
I have about 40 house plants, plus the stuff in the tent. No issues with bugs, but all my plants are cleaned (dead leaves taken off) on a weekly basis.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

I think half the reason I enjoy doing it so much, is just getting to see the setups people are doing. So much cool shit out there nowadays.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Not much off the shelf right now like mine.
Having lots of fun managing VPD without massive turnover of outside air... May end up having to add a bit of CO2 to keep things in the ballpark.
As far as bugs, decade ago when I was trying to keep the ex within budget, struggled with fungus gnats and fruit flies.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
So far sterile environment, I do have ionizer/ozone generator in the cabinet, and sensor that'll detect o3 concentration. In theory I should be able to flood the chamber and kill bugs... Haven't tested that functionality yet, science says it'll work.
Shit, I had no idea Beyonders were getting into this. I started to dabble earlier this year, and it's been quite the learning experience but I'm hoping for some decent results. Growing Carolina Reaper and Bhut Jolokia peppers.

Irrigation arrangement I cooked up on the weekend. I kept fucking up the watering while trying to do it by hand...
Biggest plants are starting to show buds!

So my sibling cross with just a few bud sites pollenated - apparently spread everywhere
So seed run, luckily I was just looking at this particular grow mostly for extract. Gotta sit down and cruise forums and learn a bit on making my own vape juice...
so this thread was supposed to be NOT the devils lettuce brah.

Snapped this pic yesterday. She’s 5 weeks into flower but this is a long finisher and might take to 11 or 12 weeks. Purple fade is starting:
Anything green is welcome! Even if it has a hint of purple

Could you expand more on how your irrigation system is working with that bucket and the sprinkler parts.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Sure.
The pump is this: https://www.homedepot.ca/product/rid...aws/1000668683 (the hose barb is actually screwed into an NPT thread on the top of the pump)
The manifold is this: https://www.homedepot.ca/product/orb...-cd/1000404812
And then just a short length of plastic pipe in the middle to bring the manifold up to a good height. From there, each line goes off to a dripper placed beside each plant, and the manifold has individual flow adjustments so you can make sure each plant gets the right amount of water. I'm still fine tuning it (and peppers don't need a ton of water anyway), but right now I have it running for like 2 minutes every other day. So far that seems to be pretty close to the ideal amount.

Back left is "savoury" herb. I have my doubts that a botanist would call it that, but hey, what the fuck do I know? The big one is Basil, it's a beast. We've already trimmed it hard.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

yeah, Basil basically becomes a weed in the aerogarden. Trim it down all you want, it just comes back, and quickly too.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

I do like italian food, so I'll be going nuts with the basil in my cooking.

+1 Aerogarden basil is ridiculous.
Another crazy one is Dill. I was bringing it to work for people in ziploc bags and leaving it on their desks. This was the before-legal days. Hilarity.
Another easy fast grower is green onions. Buy some from store, cut all the root bases off and throw them in water. Couple days and you will see new life, plus so much more taste then store bought.
