This depends on the type of strain along with if you started via seed or clone. The average estimates to 15 weeks per cycle.

What are the environmental controls of the system?
Temperature, humidity, constant air flow, air intake filtration, tank aeration and soil moisture control.
How do you control proximity heat?
To control proximity heat we locked in the LEDs airspace with the diffuser and we positioned our air inlets/chamber fan to pull the remaining radiant heat out of the top of the chamber. We call it “Smart Spacial Design”. It’s included in the patent language.
Will it make my house smell like weed?
No, the CryptoGrow Pod uses Activated Carbon Filters to minimize cannabis aroma.
Manufacturing
Are the units manufactured yet?
All research & development is done along with working prototypes, however the public units are not manufactured yet. We will use a portion of mint proceeds to manufacture the units with Benchmark Electronics, a global contract manufacturer. This is being overseen by Craig Hoffart, our COO.
Have you tested the machines?
Yes, we have tested our prototypes. Our last test grow was streamed online via a live time-lapse with a raspberry pi (small cpu with wifi capability) to take images every few minutes for the entirety of the grow. The website was always live.
Have other people tested the units?
No, our units have been tested in-house primarily by Jesse & our team of engineers.
How long is the warranty?
We will warranty the systems for at least one year. There is a chance this is a longer manufacturer warranty through Benchmark Electronics, however we won’t know the exact terms until further in our manufacturing process.
What happens if the system breaks?
If the system breaks because of a defective part we will exchange it for you. As with the warranty, these details won't be available until further along in the manufacturing process.
