Im just wondering about BC northrenlights grow box, just the Roommate because that's all I need to please myself.

Questions from users-
Overall is it worth the price.
are they power hogs.
are the loud?
and does carbon filter work?

also if anyone has grow journals id like to see!

Thanks.

I've got the Producer but I'll answer your questions;

Yes, it is worth the price. Yes, you can do it cheaper. I have minimal handyman skills and very limited time. This box was a great solution. My first harvest was 525 grams. I was paying $12/gram at my dispensary, now I'm paying them nothing.

I don't believe they are power hogs but I'm not really sure.

I wouldn't want to sleep in the same room as it but they aren't loud. Mine is in a boiler room and I can barely hear it.

Yes, carbon filters work.

I have two journals up from my experience with the Producer. One is still underway now. I'll put up links if you want.

I also have a producer and I love it, the price seems a bit steep but it is worth it to not have to set it up yourself. Personally for my situation I would have bought the roommate without hydro would be the way to go. The room I have my producer has no windows and it is to hot to keep my res cool enough. I cant supplement air conditioning either. The producer is a bigger growing space than I need. I am sure u could pull 6-20oz every 2 months with it growing in soil/soilless or hydro

the reason I edited this post is I would recommend buying the dryer with the roommate at the same time. I ordered my producer without one and ended up getting one later, keeps the smell down to minimum, unless u r legal or enjoy the smell

Definitely possible with the amount of nutrients they start you with, the filter lasts along time and you have to purchase replacements from them for future
if u start from seed it takes a while and your yield will be as high as your skill level

My first time using the machine I pulled over 18 ounces from 4 plants. My dispensary charges $10-$12 per gram with no price break if you buy an ounce. I like the place quite a bit but it isn't cheap. The machine is saving my money.

Roomate is pretty loud, door is kind of annoying and hard to keep temperatures down.. Lets see how it turns out though after using it.. maybe some harvest will make me think differently.
