Great exhaust fan! Like all of ACI's products, superior quality and solid build quality. This is essential to maintain proper environmental conditions and is a vital component in my grows.

Really good grow light! Never had to run this light on max and has wall-to-wall coverage for a 4x4 grow tent. Since this is a bar-style light, the coverage is also quite even and seems to run cooler than the board lights. Have a few LEDs that flicker from time-to-time, but have used this light for many cycles without issue.

All of ACI's products are top quality and sturdy in build! This tent is no exception. This tent also is specifically designed for their grow controllers and makes cable management very easy! A perfect veg tent for my current grow setup which keeps the grow going in-between flower runs.

Lotus Cal/Mag is a great Calcium and Magnesium additive! Since I mainly use distilled water or RO water, this a great way to add the minerals back to the sterile water. Also, between liquid and powder additives, I personally prefer powder so this has completely replaced my prior liquid alternative (CaliMagic).

Still curing, but already stoked for this smoke! Grew these genetics before, but these are clones and can already notice subtle differences from the seed version. Terpenes are different between the two with the #1 pheno having a more berry-jam profile while getting a more floral-fuel profile from #2. Growth morphology is the same as the last time with lanky nodal spacing and uneven branching. If using a scrog, this is not a big issue. Both phenos grown had very similar bud structure with deep purpling during senescence. Yield was okay but these were hand watered so could have been better if watering was maintained better. Have both as mothers and depending on how the final cure smokes, will keep or cycle out. Again, still learning to grow so pretty sure I could I done better, but growth was definitely an improvement from the last time. Overall, incredible genetics and recommended for terpenes, but growth is lanky and should be considered.

At the time of writing this, everything is still curing, but from what I smoked of the uncured buds, can't wait for the final cured product! Terpenes between the two phenos grown were quite different. The #1 pheno had a very sweet lemon pine-sol profile with the #2 pheno giving off a more earthy-kushy profile. As far as growth morphology, both phenos I grew had some differences. One seemed to lean more towards the GG#4 parent with the other more towards the Golden Goat. Both nodal spacing and branching was nice and even between the two. Buds looked about the same, but one pheno turned purple while one stayed pretty green. Overall both were simple to grow in organic soil (auto-watering also made everything easier). Yield was great and had one of my largest harvests! Between all 4 cultivars grown this cycle, both Gorilla Goat phenos definitely yielded the most! Currently have mothers of both phenos and depending on the final smoke, will be keeping these genetics alive for future grow cycles. Now I'm still learning to grow so ultimately not sure if I grew these to their full potential. Regardless, from the two phenos I grew, both were easy and I highly recommend these genetics!

The Controller 69 is an industry standard and an absolutely essential component to my grow! This literally controls all of my grow equipment and maintains my grow environments. Although wish there were more ports.

This is an incredible grow light! Even though I prefer bar-style lights, this board-style light is great! Since I use this as a veg light, I never have to set it on max and still get vigorous growth!

Absolutely great microbial products! Recharge is an incredible multipurpose microbial inoculant that contains both humic acids and natural sugars which literally recharges your soil and keeps plants thriving! I personally like to diversify and use Recharge in-between my usual microbial feedings. Also shout out to the DGC and for all that they do!

This tent has solid build quality and is an essential part of my grow. I like how it keeps the grow environment separate from the lung room which is important for proper environmental controlling. A great seed-to-harvest tent and a perfect perpetual flower/dry tent.

Have to say that I might be a bit bias, but BuildASoil has the best organic grow products! From the Quillaja to the WDG3000, each product is always top quality and serves a specific purpose, yet can be used in combination for a very versatile organic feeding regiment. Also, BuildASoil's online YouTube grow videos and website are absolutely essential resources for any grower learning to grow no-till organics! Still not an expert grower yet, but BuildASoil will help me LOYAL TO THE SOIL!

Since I'm no expert, I understand growth can always be better which obviously effects the end product and flavor. With that said, buds are dense and are just coated with trichomes! The aroma has an earthy-fuel profile with hints of berries on some of the phenos. Unfortunately, I still don't get any garlic-GMO flavors, but I think this is due to my inexperience as a grower. This is the second time growing these genetics and I can taste the difference between seed and clone cycles. But this could also be due to the difference in growth health as well. Regardless, I've enjoyed growing these genetics and will continue to keep mother plants alive for future grow cycles.

Great White is an incredible mycorrhizae product! Always get healthy roots after inoculation and really helps with transplants.

I consider these more as BuildASoil products, but these are great mycorrhizae and microbial inoculants! Each product has specific microbes which help to mobilize nutrients during the various phases of growth (Veg/Bloom).

Great grow light! Over the years a few LEDs have started to dim and flicker and blink every once-in-a-while, but she still works and produces more than enough light for a 4x4 grow tent. Also have yet to use this at full strength. Compared to my veg light in the 3x3 tent (AC Infinity S33 IonBoard), the spectrum is more on the warmer side, but she's a solid light and plan to continue to use the FC-6500 for many more grow cycles!

Excellent powder Cal-Mag product which as now replaced my liquid one (Cali-Magic). The powder is a bit more grainy than most powdered products and has a weird 'kinetic sand' texture, but is a lot easier to mix in smaller batches than using a liquid concentrate. Since I use RO water, this is an essential product for my grows.
