I have a snap and grow greenhouse with one auto opener. I want a second one. However, this one, though advertised to fit snap and grow doesn't seem to have the same fittings for the special fitting "screws" of snap and grow, where you just twist it 90 degrees to secure it. Am I missing something here? Snap and grow offers what appears to be an identical unit but with the proper fittings for several dollars more. Please advise.

We converted standard hex head bolts to match the special twist in bolts by grinding two sides of a conventional bolt head and getting them to fit into the slot or channel. Won't you still need the framing to make a roof panel into a hinged vent panel? Good luck.

I agree... ours did not fit. My husband took his Dremel and made a small opening in the channel to allow the Snap and Grow special bolt to slide into the channel. The top side fit because the end of the channel was open... so you could slide it in. Not so with the bottom... hence the Dremel option.

I think there are two different groups of people looking at this product. If you are looking at doing Line 24 leather snaps it works great for the female but will not work on the male snap. It is too bad. If the manufacturer reads this make the top just a little smaller so it will fit in the male cap as well. Then you will be opening up the market for this to people who are doing leather working as well. I don't know if I will send mine back or not as it does an excellent job on the female side but probably would not have purchased it if I knew it did not do the male side. Not sure why some people here answered that it would work. I think there are two different groups of people looking at this product.

U can use jus there 3 part grow micro bloom base and get good results the rest is for a few steps above but they probly have a few that don't do much but I've been using there 3 part base w b-52, big bud, bud candy, and overdive. U can stick to the base 3 and add 1 at a time to c if there's a noticeable difference I got mine at the same time and have had really good results (spend the $ a good ppm meter tho makes life way easier blue lad works great)

My unit was traded in for a 10 liter. The 'Ameri-vent' brand piping (double lined) started as 4" from the unit and increased to 5" with an adapter because I already had a 5" furnace pipe to tee into. I got a 90 degree elbow fitting near the unit and tied in with a 5" tee. Then through the roof. You may be able to 90 it through the wall then up but your local codes are important to follow. The exhaust on these is very hot so the roof/wall should have a sleeve made for this pipe to go through. Use special tape to wrap the fittings even though you should use screws to hold them.

I really don't get the people claiming their greenhouse was blown down. I live in Florida and we recently had some pretty crazy weather. We have not yet bolted or tied down our greenhouse and so had gotten a little worried when the winds got crazy, but that greenhouse didn't budge an inch. I was skeptical when we first bought the greenhouse about a year ago but w are really happy with it. Its much more durable than i had originally thought it would be.

the link they put up for the econo-lock carboy bungs set of 2 I already bought those, they work great for my 3 gallon carboy. I also already have 2 jugs same type from organic apple juice. same kind of jugs, but the bungs are barely too big too fit. I need smaller ones for my jugs, so might you or anyone reading this, if they are looking for bungs and airlocks for 1 gallon jugs similar to the one shown. might have to find a rubber plug at a hardware store and drill it out yourself. or use a balloon and take a needle to it first and put a tiny hole to let excess pressure out

My heater is hooked up to propane but the installer should have checked for leaks at the time it was hooked up. Surely they used the correct connector piece for ng. This model can use either one but has to be connected up properly with the correct connector piece. I would call them back. If you did not have a professional hook it up, you need to get one there ASAP to be sure you are safe. I have purchased 3 of the ProCom Vent-Free heaters over the years for different locations in the house and never had a problem but they were installed by professionals because safety is always #1 for my family and myself. My advise is to contact your professional installer to be sure you are safe. My heater is hooked up to propane but the installer should have checked for leaks at the time it was hooked up.

Your question is a little confusing. The reflector should already be mounted to the fixture, but this stuff does come from China so it wouldn't surprise me if it wasn't. I did not receive any extra screws with the setup, just the timer, bulbs, and pulleys. If you are looking to screw your pulleys directly to your hood I would not recommend it. There are little V hangers that you can get that slide in and out of the two holes that are on each side on your hood. I don't think they came with the setup but you can buy them online or at your local grow store,(if you have one :) Let me know if you have any more questions and keep on growin!

I responded earlier..but, while I have had previous success with this Timer (purchased at Home Depot who no longer carries them) and highly recommended them in my reply, I recently bought 8 from Amazon. I installed 6 with totally confidence.However, after thinking about it, I checked and found two not working!!! No wonder I was concerned when my veggie garden looked so poorly. Anyway, on one of the timers it was obvious that there was water inside the mechanism. When I went to replace it, there were some "lines" in he program area, but it was impossible to program. Should I sent them back?

I looked again at a spare brand new one that was in my garage - with that lock properly installed I don't see you circumventing it without breaking something. That latch doesn't move if in the locked position. I wish there was a way to post a picture - basically there's a tapered section of the lock assemble that slides into the gray housing - then the latch lifts and swings over the catch on the door; when the lock mechanism is pushed down that door is solidly secured. Then locking it makes it so it can't lift or open. Like I said, if that's done right, the housing won't open without you breaking some plastic either on the door or the lock itself.

Answer is from my review......The directions were clear....line up the top and simply "snap" on...right! Being > 70, my arm strength is not what it once was, and no way was I going to be able to "snap" that top on. Took what looks like a short croquet mallet from my husband's workbench (head is about 2" round, and made from something other than metal....have no clue what its real purpose is), lined up the top correctly, covered it with a towel to avoid marks, and "tapped" it....to no avail. So, I whacked it above each appropriate spot...and I do mean whacked. Cover and trash can survived without a mark....and cover works perfectly.

I don't know what 'system' the Victorio sprouting tray uses. I have used the Handy Pantry 3 Tray Stackable Sprout Garden by Handy Pantry for months and only used the Sprout House Certified seeds, various packages. I have had 98% of the seeds sprout, regardless of type of seed, consistently and never had less than 98%. The Stackable Sprout Garden trays I use enable me to soak the seeds according to the times that are suggested, and then to flip the trays over and put the soaked seeds into the self draining side that I rinse two or three times a day. The seeds are always covered with the dark green plastic of the tray above it (the top tray #4 simply acts as a lid) keeps the seeds/sprouts in the dark except when rinsing but allows good air circulation. The seeds are always at room temperature, 68 - 72 degrees from the time of soaking to harvesting the sprouts. The sprouts always grow in the expected time and I have even allowed them to grow extra tall to good results. I'm very favorably biased with how these trays were perfectly engineered to do all this in a very small space, with no water spillage and get 98% sprouting. Hopefully something I have described will shed a clue on why you are not getting full sprouting. Good luck.

It sounds like you have a unique situation and it's difficult for me to give you a 100% thumbs up/down answer. Our joints are new & unique. They can be operated with 1 hand (you click to release the joint, rotate to the desired setting and click to lock it in place). If the person use the stand in a common location, little adjustment is usually required after the product has been set up correctly. Call/email if there's anything else we can do for you. thanks.

I am using my first one now. It is much easier to lift than the glass carboys. One problem is the mouth of the bottle is much wider than the glass ones. You will have to go to the hardware store and by a rubber stopper and drill a hole in it. You then need a second air trap so you don't have to move it from one stopper to another.

In looking at the manual that came with mine, I do not see the cover listed as "parts" that one can purchase. I would recommend either checking on their website: www.jewettcameron.com, or contacting them directly at: 800-955-2879. I contacted them, by phone, when I first received my greenhouse. They were extremely helpful and solved my problem immediately!

The only thing I've bought for mine is batteries for the unit that tells you when the water is low and nutrients. I bought a sample bottle of golden tree off amazon. It has everything needed by the plant for growth and flowering in one bottle. All you do is add the given amount to a gallon of water and add every 2nd time you refill the garden. Just dump any extra water out of the holding tank first. That's all I've bought for my unit. And I gotta be honest I love the golden tree nutrients n my zero soil system. It allows a single plant per container or more depending on the type of plant and size. There's a divided cover in case you have multiple herbs you're growing to keep them separated. It's small and can fit anywhere. Mine is in a window.
