The cannabis seedlings are doing well. This spring has been pretty even keeled as far as the temperature goes so the bitcoin miner had been able to keep things well above freezing in the cold frame. The Bitcoin miner is a single s19 hashboard, running on 110v power in a slapped together homemade enclosure. It's using ~700-800w of power. A fantastic little space heater!
There are 5 different seedlings growing, all crossed from the pineapple pomegranate male I used to pollinate the garden last season. Redbud haze, white widow, gold leaf, and two unusual redbud haze phenotypes. Planning on transplanting into the rabbit colony cannabis garden early May.
The seeds I'm growing are for sale too. 24 pack for $30, free shipping. Let me know if you want some.

quotingGrowing cannabis in a cold frame heated with a homemade 110v bitcoin miner
nevent1q…8t8h
Seeds are germinated and planted in the cold frame. Growing 5 different varieties this season.
I aim to keep the cold frame around 70f, by adjusting the opening throughout the day and keeping the custom 110v Bitcoin miner running at night. Last year I used an S9 to heat the cold frame which worked really well. The new miner is a significant upgrade.
I had to slap the enclosure together for this miner quickly so it's not pretty but it works. This is a single s19 hashboard running on 110v power utilizing a pivotal pleb tech Loki power supply spoofer installed on the control board. The spoofer tricks the control board into running on 110v power instead of 220v allowing the miner to run plugged into a standard wall outlet. I'm using vnish firmware to manually tune the miner achieving better than stock efficiency. An added bonus of using the Loki to run on 110v is that I am able to run this miner on the solar power system at my yurt during the day when it's not needed for heating the cold frame.
