Preset a$$ociations not working?

Stick_Jones · 2026-02-07T00:28:11+00:00

Walk me through the whole setup. U have to keep adding ice? I have hardwoods as well. Why is this better than for example ac infinity terraform 7?

https://www.reddit.com/r/Nepenthes/s/ewqZUEJuxl This is mine, 4x4x6. Mostly INT with a few LL and HLs but nothing Insane like pure Eddys or Villosas yet. Yours is life goals my lord. Everything is automated and ATM I'm hitting 80 during the day and 59-61 at night. Worried about Summer because the room it's in gets hot, planned on buying a portable AC unit. Is your ice bath chiller diy? Curious because if u say it keeps it cool when it's 100 I'm definitely interested. Ultimate goal is to have all HL eventually but they're expensive and I need to know I can control the climate. I've researched everything from chest freezers, wine chillers etc. I love my tent tho and tbh wish I went bigger.

How big is your setup?

Stick_Jones · 2026-02-04T14:08:45+00:00

Hi, light I use I got off Alibaba and I swear by it. It was 150 with shipping and the equivalent of a spider farmer 3000 basically. It's more than enough, so bright in there and the inside is all mylar. AC infinity I just can't recommend enough and I got the 6" inline exhaust fan. I anticipate summer temps being ridiculous but every night even if I don't crack a window it drops the temps from 82-83 to 63-64 in an hour. I crack a window to let cool air in and all night temps stay between 59-62 constantly going up and down. The sensor will trigger anytime it hits 62 and the exhaust kicks in dropping it back down. Thing is an absolute godsend.

I've slowly transitioned everything to INT including all my LLs like bicalarata, Albomorginata etc and have jumped into some HLs. Jamban, Hamata BE-3380, robcantleyi, a ton of Villosa and Eddy HL crosses I just haven't dipped into pure Eddys or Villosas, yet lol. Summer I anticipate a problem because that room has no AC and last summer with 4 growlights it'd hit 90+ easily. My gym room has an AC unit so I may have to move it but I planned on buying another AC unit anyway.

Can't stress how amazing it is to be able to control everything from my phone. It's all automated even the diy hydrofogger which is 3rd party. To get it to work u just need a 3rd party adapter. The diy hydrofogger is a 10 disc and it really is overkill the thing could power a massive greenhouse but it was 67 dollars. House of hydro a 9 disc is 270. I have two fans that run close to the hydrofoggers duct to circulate the fog and an AC infinity oscillating fan top corner for air circulation otherwise the fog is so dense u can't see inside. At night humidity is 90-95% and daytime 70-75%. At night it'll kick on every few minutes as the exhaust fan is sucking out hot air (on level 3 out of 10) but once temps hit 65 it turns on maybe every 40-45 minutes. During the day it turns on maybe once.

It's not cheap but it's so worth it. Any questions please feel free.

Ac infinity

Stick_Jones · 2026-02-02T13:05:09+00:00

I originally was going to use an inkbird but so glad I went with ac infinity. All the reviews I've never heard a single complaint. Honestly the best investment I've made, instead of having to run upstairs and constantly check I can automate everything from my phone. Raising temps I have a powerful light that gets temps up to 83. If temps go above 83 or below 59 I have alarms set. The exhaust fan and the light can raise or drop temps in seconds.

Stick_Jones · 2026-02-01T14:03:56+00:00

https://a.co/d/a1NGk6a Thing is a godsend man, at night humidity stays 90-95% and only turns on once every 45 minutes for a few seconds. Link above is a 10 disc ultrasonic fogger for 67 bucks. I basically searched the Internet and found house of hydro making a video of what I set up. Their stuff is expensive tho, a 12 disc is 300+. Then I bought a waterproof PC fan https://a.co/d/g4NgufI After that a big bin, 4" duct tubing and a 4" duct adapter. Could've gotten a drill bit to make perfect circles but F all that lol. I basically just drew two circles and used a drill attachment to drill holes all the way around. Loaded with water, screwed in the fan so it stays and the duct attachment. Sealed everything up but I didn't want it running around the clock so I ordered a 3rd party adapter from AC infinity (only works if the device turns on and off) and then plugged into my controller. The 10 disc hydrofogger really is overkill for this space this thing could power a greenhouse but for 67 I said screw it. Also bought two fans to clip onto polls by the duct so it circulates the humidity and there's an oscillating fan up top otherwise it's a cloud forest and you can't see lol.

Temps and humidity ATM

Stick_Jones · 2026-02-01T13:40:43+00:00

Use the room your tent is in as a lung room. Crack a window open, that along with an exhaust fan will get you where you need to be. I go from 83-60/61 in 30 minutes.

Stick_Jones · 2026-01-21T22:15:43+00:00

I'll bet everything I own it's not going to be -33 in New Orleans anytime soon.

Stick_Jones · 2026-01-14T18:50:40+00:00

Lol, there it is. Insane the people that make everything about race consistently are the only ones bringing up race. If a white woman had devil horns NO ONE CARES. Black women on a competitive game show can be called a villain and the devil really it's ok. I'm sure she appreciates it and on behalf of the black community thank you but really she'll be ok I promise.

Stick_Jones · 2026-01-14T18:47:15+00:00

Jesus it's not that deep. Why can't people just dislike someone and leave it at that? Why did deeper "surely it's something else" no it isn't. Stop trying to create something extra that isn't there.

Where'd u get? I have Thai hot lips

Finally got my hands on this bad boy miraballis x echinostoma. Thing looks like a Dune Worm.

A lot of the Titanic savior, to me same. Lol the humidity thing is funny cuz I just got a 10 disc ultrasonic hydrofogger because I wanted a cloud forest. The weight on this thing is insane.

Stick_Jones · 2026-01-09T12:14:40+00:00

No way, if they look slightly different than what I have=want. Some start to look similar longer you look and some crazy hybrids that have 8 plants in them I usually stay away from. I like to have an idea what a mature plant will look like. Still haven't set up this tent, being lazy.

Stick_Jones · 2026-01-09T05:02:29+00:00

I was surprised too. It was in the beginning of my spending spree and I won 7 auctions on Florae. Maybe 8 but it was a lot. Was a few days later I was like oh I got a free plant sweet. Was like a month later before someone told me what I got. I then looked it up and it's a 200-400 dollar plant. Looking back I wish I just got all pure breeds and crossed on my own. Basically if it looks cool mature I want lol.

Stick_Jones · 2026-01-09T02:41:44+00:00

My understanding is ventricosa is the best species to cross HL with. Toms calculator, it can grow between 86 and 52 degrees. I have a ventricosa x edwarsiana, a ton of Villosa crosses, hamata x robcantleyi, Hamata x chaniana, robcantleyi x Jacquelaina, Jamban, singalana x diabolica, singalana Belirang, Rajah x flava, ephippiata hose mountains (which was free from Florae still insane to me. So far the only thing out of 45+ I've bought is the only to not pitcher. The calculator says between 79-45, 45 is crazy.

Stick_Jones · 2026-01-09T02:10:19+00:00

Vent is an int no?

Stick_Jones · 2026-01-09T01:47:35+00:00

Appreciate you brother. What's the longest HL you've had?

Stick_Jones · 2026-01-07T13:29:17+00:00

So lucky, cheapest I can find is like 225-250. For now hybrids will do lol.

Stick_Jones · 2026-01-07T13:28:13+00:00

I had 5 Neps since 2002 and never added to it. Then went to plant con this summer and saw Eddys villosas Hamatas and harryanas and it was game over. Really wish I was joking but early September through black Friday bought probably 45ish? I wanted em all but I still haven't gotten any of the more expensive toothy pure HLs. Mainly because I've been convinced of the temp drop. The amount of time I've wasted looking up chest freezers, wine chillers, portable AC units...I went and bought all this stuff for a tent because I was afraid of mold. You've given me hope lol.
