Growing cannabis in a cold frame heated with a homemade 110v bitcoin miner

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.

Easy to do, that 110v compromise definitely doing something to the miner
