Wow great video on this new tech by Vivosun! I actually have this system with a 6” fan. The whole system works great. Its so much easier to grow and control the grow space with the Grow Hub controller, it pretty much does everything for u. One of the things I love is it has a simulated sun rise and sun set, so the light intensity will ramp up in the beginning and dim down at the end of the light cycle or recipe u choose. The AeroLight’s fan, some non-owners think may blow hot air on your plants, but the design of the light pulls the heat away from the center and the light pushes nice cool air right thru the canopy, keeping humidity off the foliage. And the having the different light spectrums for: seedling, veg, and flower is awesome! Not just dimming or increasing intensity for different stages, it actually has Far Red and UV that is selected for the different stage of growing. Bravo on the video! If I didn’t have this setup already, I would be really interested now!
@@surronzak8154 nice @914buds I got the same.......I just got the fan can u control the clip-fan and aerolight fan separately ????and as far as auto water. . does their water system plug In and also control it though the grub???ive yet to see anyone with auto water setup from vivo .
Bruh thanks for making this vid. I'm a chili pepper growing trying to have hot sauce side hustle. I need to grow my own peppers and gonna get this tent kit. You explained everything well. Also I see the PNW hat represent!
I just plopped my fan down on the top vent with a filter on top and it works perfect and gives me negative pressure and I don’t have to deal with hanging it in my tiny tent
My 3x3x6 has a seedling in it at this time. My first grow, and I over weighted it by misting with large drops. fell over at base of plant. It will survive, but I don't expect much from it. I have five seeds germinating at this time. The reason for my comment: I owned a small moving company for 14 years, closed it down 12/04. Oh wow 20 years! My friend, you mention the difficulty of moving large tents. If I may: We used a method of folding a clean, (no debris to scratch floor) moving pad in 1/2, we used a method for getting the pad under whatever we wanted to drag, and it works beautifully. Works great if you want to move, for example, across a large room. Larger the tent, more pads, and pullers! If it were me, and I was dragging across an unfinished basement floor, I would put a plastic tarp between pads, and floor. I would not use a tarp w/o also using the pads. Hope this helps someone out. Hey, we moved pianos this way! Oh yeah, sweep that finished floor before the drag. Peace to all 🙂 OK here's the method for placing pad. Fold pad in half, or leave unfolded if needed. Roll pad so that about app; 2 feet are visible when tent is lowered. Lift one end of tent, get as much of that pad under the tent, to the other side, as possible. Try to not bunch up. Now go to other side of tent, lift, and pull pad through. Back to other side of tent and pull. Works great for all sorts of moving.
Wish you can ad VPD trigger points instead of just humidity/temperature. You guys also need an accessory outlet plug compatible with the controller to turn on and off accessory’s like humidifier/heater/dehumidifie. Also the app needs work its glitchy every time i go and edit a recipe it sets the lights to seedling spectrum and turns off sunrise/sunset. I have to turn it back on while im in there editing it. And its overall glitchy. And no grow diary in the app as pictured on the website
Good content man, super informative, great summary. I have had an aerolight for around 4 months and used it all summer to start seeds. It's pretty easy when you don't have to check on the tent all the time. I even moved it to the family home and am able to control it from my place.
The 2x2? Check the specs on yours to make sure you’re getting the height you want! I’m pretty sure they come in two different heights, the one I have in this video is pretty short. One plant tent for sure! But still an awesome compact tent if that’s what you’re looking for!
@@WhitepepperFarmshomestead Because of having a tiny house (in the traditional sense), that’s exactly the size I need. I’m getting it for my bedroom, which is the only other space I have to grow indoors
Then it would work great for sure! I’m a huge fan of Vivosun tents, I’ve been using them since I very first started growing indoors. I think they provide a good balance between quality and price. Definitely worth it for what you pay!
@@Musiclandsuite I've heard nothing but good about them, but I don't have any personal experience! I actually already have an email I sent out to them I think on... Friday but I haven't heard anything back yet. I'm going to try to get ahold of one to check it out!
@@Musiclandsuite That is a very good question.. but a tough one. If I was just getting into growing planta all over again, I think one of the best pieces of advice I could have gotten would be... Plant twice the seeds that you actually need plants for. Too much fertilizer can be a bad thing, take it easy with the fertilizer. Most plants like water but don't LOVE water, dont let the soil stay soaking wet. Water the plants and let the soil get dry until you stick your finger in two knuckles deep and it comes out dry, then water again. Plan on plants dying, it happens a lot and although you may lose less plants later on, you'll always lose SOME plants. Use vertical space as much as possible. Okay, there was a quick brainstorm haha! Mostly these are things I myself struggled with in the beginning!
It actually depends a lot on which kit you get. On the website they have a surprising amount of different kits. So you could get a tent, light, grow hub controller, and fan in a kit, or a bigger tent, two lights, a grow hub controller, and the larger fan. You could also get a kit with everything and not a tent. I hope this helps 😂! If you need help I could definitely point you in the right direction if you let me know what all you’re looking for!
Got a Vivosun Pro grow tent kit myslef. My summary of it all is it was no surprise to later learn Vivosun's was given an F rating by the BBB Better Business Bureau! 🤔
hey boss question for ya , could i use this entire system MINUS the tent? i'm planning on growing outdoors in a green house but using the light to make up for the loss of light when sunset hits... is that a thing or ?
You’d want to look at the specs and see how many lights you can hook to it but I’ve seen people do that! It would be a pretty easy setup. How many lights do you want to run?
@@WhitepepperFarmshomestead appreciate the quick response bro! & honestly just one or two as the green house is only 6x8 .. another question .. i might just get the tent to simply dry though when drying do i need to leave a fan on 24/7?
So I'm waiting for the 4x2 setup with that aerolight you said it for a 2x2 space do I need another light if I plan on growing two plants in the 4x2? Or do I need two lights just for one plant since it's a 4x2. Sorry I'm a rookie this is first indoor setup.
@WhitepepperFarms even if I just got one plant going? Probably just gonna do one for now till I get the hang of it. So I should be good with the one light for now correct?
Mr. Grow tent person. This would be a perfect setup for veggie seedlings to start them in winter. Is there a configuration where I could stack levels and lights to prep a few hundred or thousand seedlings? I checked the website and couldn’t find a way to adapt for that.
This light is definitely geared more toward growing plants to maturity. BUT i have the 8x4 tent they offer and if you put shelves inside that tent you could fit that many. If you’re just doing starts I would get fluorescent lights that you can mount on each shelf that allows you to put them closer to the plants without burning them. If you still wanted the ventilation system you could still get the vent fan and the grow hub controller to control it! But for sure this light you wouldn’t be able to really mount them close enough to the plants to make it worth it.
Which one is easier too use ? Vivosun one or the ac infinity controller 69 . I have both in my Amazon cart at the moment but idk which one to pick. I see that the Vivosun app is much easier. Is the ac one confusing or the same ? Also I got the 3x3x63 Vivosun one in my cart would one light work or would I need 2 light , I plan on just growing one plant at a time at the moment I’m a beginner so I’m learning as I go lol..
Great review man! I have a question though. Do you know if the Vivosun controller would be compatible with a Spder Farm light, or does ot only work with a Vivosun light? Much appreciative if you can help me out man!
It will work with any spider farmer. On vivosuns site under the controller there's a compatible list for lights and fans. It's run any light on rj11, any inline fan possible but only ac infinity oscillating fans besides theres
Hello and I am new to all of this, and I enjoy the videos you are making. My question is what about bugs. are they attracted to the tent and do you have problems in your house with them? Thanks
Bugs are always a problem no matter where you grow. Best way to combat them is preventative measures. Diatomaceous Earth will be your best friend! Indoor and outdoor!
I couldn't help but notice that even in your video, the internal temp/humidity sensor is not registering on the controller despite being plugged in. This seems to be a running issue with the Vivosun GrowHub products. It's tough to rely on the controller for automated operation when the internal sensor keeps failing or losing sync with the controller.
I literally just got a Vivosun package, with a VS200 light, The package I got did not include the controller. Was unaware of controller, im a newbie. So these lights can't be power cycled without the controller?
Yes. They have these old things called electrical timers. You plug it into the wall. Ask someone at home depot. 😂 Edit: plug it into an electrical outlet. Not the wall
I want to use the AeroLights but they're two expensive for my price range but I still want to use the smart zesh inline fan and the growhub controller but with like a mars hydro light and maybe 2 6 inch fans so i guess what i want to know is whether it is possible to use the growhub controller without any AeroLights I'm gonna be growing in a 4 foot wide by 2 foot long by 5 foot tall tent I want to use a 300 watt light if I don't have to use the AeroLight for the controller hub to work also is it worth it to just use the smart inline fan without the lights or should I get a non fancy inline fan would that possibly make it hard to lowet the temp in ther i will probably only ever be growing 2 plants per grow In this
Yeah, you could definitely get the fan set up with the controller, and you would have to look at the Vivosun website to see for sure what lights will work with the controller, but they do say you can use other lights with it! To me it would still be worth it!
@@WhitepepperFarmshomestead maybe I'm stupid but it seems like the only other lights that are compatible with the growhub are the vivosun vs lights like the vs3000 and it looks like they would have to be plugged into the port where the aerozesh plugs in so I'm confused how would you still use the airzesh with a different compatible light
There are multiple ports on the growhub controller to plug things in at. So the fan as well as the light both plug into the controller, but the port is the same style port! I know for sure some of the other Vivosun lights work but I could of swore I saw other brands could work as well.
IMO AC Infinity has some serious competition. I just bought the Aerozesh T6 setup minus the light since I already have some different ones. But I will be getting the lights later down the road.
I’ve had destructive luck with my 4x4 complete kit At this point everything I’ve put in it has died rapidly Not sure what exactly is going wrong It’s going horribly wrong though
Will this controller allow me to turn on one blower only during the day then a second blower only at night? Does the app have conditional logic for this? Multiple blower independent control? I am growing orchids which need about 15°F swing between day and night so I would use one blower to exhaust any heat. That’s too high out the window and which would cause the room air to be sucked in at which sits at about 70° during the day During the night, I want to have a blower air in from outside which is typically about 10 to 15° cooler than the daytime high and this gives the plants a rest so they can cool down. Yeah? I’m assuming that there is no blower on the market that has a controller which can reverse the voltage polarity to the fan so that I can reverse the airflow … if not, I think I would have to put two blowers in series and alternate between them to change the airflow direction. Would my exhaust impeller blades freely spin if I had the intake blower activated? I would never run them at the same time.
I can't get this grow hub thing to turn on at all the light comes on but I don't think they sent me the proper ethernet cable instead it's a phone cable I tried using a ethernet cable from home just makes the light cut off
@WhitepepperFarms do u know if any ethernet cable will make the grow hub turn on from the Aerolight and what does the specs say on the original RJ45 cable that came with it usually there's a Cat number and awg number on most data cables
@@diysolaradventures7894 did you figure this out cause I think it’s because the light doesn’t work with the hub my guess cause I just picked up my first setup and the thing flickers when I go mess with the light settings and it’s plugged in with the cords it came with so. I am trying to use the vs4000. End of day if I have to go down there at noon turn it on and turn it off at night around 11 it’s not end of world lol
I'm still trying to get my grow Hub controller to work no one has been able to help me I have a question I have the light that comes with the GrubHub but they didn't send the cable is the GrubHub supposed to work with the light only if you don't have the fans that goes to it because it came as a kid with the GrubHub and light without a cable
I'm growing in a shed outside so the hub controller is completely useless do they even think of this . From now on I'm buying from a different company and send this unuser friendly expensive light back vivosun booo!😮
You should mention the problem with the inside probe. I even noticed it in your video. It has problems with digital interference., and you kind of have to spend some time finding a good spot where the probe won’t go out every few minutes to an hour. I figured it out shortly after I got the unit, but vivosun refuses to acknowledge it and speak to me. Their CS is mid, which kind of draws me away from them slightly. They always take the stance that you’re the problem and not their products. At least that’s how they’ve made me feel.
It doesnt win any if the tests done by migro. Mars hydro and spider farmer are placing higher. Funny how it's the sponsored videos promoting the brand 😅 I wonder why 😊
The app sucks still trying to set up grow start and stop times ridiculous they don't tell what requirements you need to control it. I'm getting ready to send it back and buy from another company. Iiars!
Philip relax it’s me Philip lol. The times are one the website or you can you tube them and find them. I’m not a tech guy at all but i smoked a blunt watched a couple videos and got mine dialed in.
Buying Vivosun is an entry level mistake and a lesson in "buy once cry once". Don't be a fool, it's literally rebranded ipower junk. It not like Ac infinity that was once junk but kept invested in engendering slightly better gear overtime.
Inline fan is weak. Tent fans are built to the lowest quality and do you dare let them touch or rub against anything. They will lose 0 and start clicking. Then stop all together. .
I am on a budget i went with Vivosun and all of my electronic equipment from Vivosun are failing. Incorrect reading incorrect functioning. I got what i paid for. Lesson learned.
Chinese cheap inefficient LEDs are flooding the Market. If you have CFLs , use them a while longer,competition is so strong,esp after Germany legalising ( for EU people), you can get good,cheap LEDs if you know where to look and the prices will keep dropping and Quality up, but chinese sellers are flat out lying about many of their " plant LEDs". They sell one which you can flap open in 4 Wings,cool idea but gets really HOT and can blind you but only 8% useable light for plants 🤬
These lights are absolute trash. I gave one a spin and tested it with a par meter. The output is only about 500 par in a 1 x 1 foot space directly under the light at 12’ which is terrible. Overpriced Chinese crap with fancy packaging.

I've been eyeing this set up for a bit and tis video is def very helpful! Thanks!
Good video, I was on the fence about picking one up, But saw Migro do a review and now this one came across my feed so I see it as a sign :) lol.
It’s definitely a sign 😂! That Migro one is what made me want it in the first place!
Got it. Love it. Worth it. Love the VPD readout too. You can set everything to trigger at high/low temp and humidity to stay in range.

What a great video! You did a very good job summarizing everything about the system. Really great work.
Hey thank you! I appreciate that!!

Where can I find a video on how to set up the entire tent including the fan,ventilation system, lights, etc
Once you have the equipment, youll figure it out easily. Just set up your tent first and the 💡 will come
How do u have the controller sitting on the tent what's holding it up there ?
The controller comes with a magnet and metal plate. You can mount it anywhere on your tent with it!
@Whitepepper Farms oh yeah ? Sweet that's bad ass !
Right?!
I don't have a vivosun light yet, but I have the controller. It definitely makes keeping an environment stable very easy!
Was that a 6 or 4 inch setup in this video? Thanks!
So is the fan controlled only if it's plugged into the controller? Or through wifi as an alternative?
How does the air filter work, what do you hook it up to for power
Where would you place your other fans ?
I love the options out there now.

how did your set up turn out?
Is the filter necessary inside can I only have the fan inside?
Yes you can do it either way.
Depends on temp, right? You can make it as hot as you want. But the plant wont like it.
Thanks - So helpful understanding the hub a little more.
Ps. Are the fans on the light easy to clean?
Does it produce heat ?
If I want to use it in a unheated sunroom do I need heater?
It will help.

There are multiple ports on the growhub controller to plug things in at. So the fan as well as the light both plug into the controller, but the port is the same style port! I know for sure some of the other Vivosun lights work but I could of swore I saw other brands could work as well.
IMO AC Infinity has some serious competition. I just bought the Aerozesh T6 setup minus the light since I already have some different ones. But I will be getting the lights later down the road.
Where does the grow hub monitor get its power from do it take batteries or plug into the wall ?
If I remember right it plugs in, I’ll look when I get home!
amazing quality video.. new sub!
Hey thanks!
Do you know if you can use different types of lights with this control hub?
Type of cord is called RJ11 in case anyone wants to know
Haveing trouble seating it up please help 🙏
I’ve had destructive luck with my 4x4 complete kit
At this point everything I’ve put in it has died rapidly
Not sure what exactly is going wrong
It’s going horribly wrong though
Will this controller allow me to turn on one blower only during the day then a second blower only at night? Does the app have conditional logic for this? Multiple blower independent control? I am growing orchids which need about 15°F swing between day and night so I would use one blower to exhaust any heat. That’s too high out the window and which would cause the room air to be sucked in at which sits at about 70° during the day During the night, I want to have a blower air in from outside which is typically about 10 to 15° cooler than the daytime high and this gives the plants a rest so they can cool down. Yeah?
I’m assuming that there is no blower on the market that has a controller which can reverse the voltage polarity to the fan so that I can reverse the airflow … if not, I think I would have to put two blowers in series and alternate between them to change the airflow direction. Would my exhaust impeller blades freely spin if I had the intake blower activated? I would never run them at the same time.
What vivosun model of contróller Is ?
I'm looking into a 4x4 but the one in my cart only has one light. Guess I have to buy the the one that cost more
The sensor on the fan is for outside/inside and the probe is for the other. I dont think both inside will magically read the outside temp.
I have a 4 x4. Vivosun nice grow tent
How many plants can you fit in int ?
I can't get this grow hub thing to turn on at all the light comes on but I don't think they sent me the proper ethernet cable instead it's a phone cable I tried using a ethernet cable from home just makes the light cut off
Oof, I’m sorry! If you’ve tried it as many ways as possible and it’s still not working, contact them! They should either refund you or replace it!
@WhitepepperFarms I bought this as a open box item on ebay thinking everything was included everything is here but the proper cable to the light
@WhitepepperFarms unfortunately I bought this off of eBay as a open box item and everything was included except the proper RJ-45 cable
@WhitepepperFarms do u know if any ethernet cable will make the grow hub turn on from the Aerolight and what does the specs say on the original RJ45 cable that came with it usually there's a Cat number and awg number on most data cables
@@diysolaradventures7894 did you figure this out cause I think it’s because the light doesn’t work with the hub my guess cause I just picked up my first setup and the thing flickers when I go mess with the light settings and it’s plugged in with the cords it came with so. I am trying to use the vs4000. End of day if I have to go down there at noon turn it on and turn it off at night around 11 it’s not end of world lol
I'm still trying to get my grow Hub controller to work no one has been able to help me I have a question I have the light that comes with the GrubHub but they didn't send the cable is the GrubHub supposed to work with the light only if you don't have the fans that goes to it because it came as a kid with the GrubHub and light without a cable
Why don't you have a filter inside the tent
what if the wifi goes off
Goes off ? Do you mean turns off ?
@@bwaltszwhat’s the difference between “goes off” and “turns off” ????
@@bwaltszlike “the wifi is gonna go out” “the wifi is gonna turn off” it’s the same thing.
You wont control it from your phone
WOMP
I woud love this video in Germanlanguage
Can you use this controller with other brands of lights and fans?
2 or more controllers will Sync and you can controll more than one tent
Sounds really loud louder then both my 2x4s together
What if there is no wifi available, no internet.
I was states away and was still able to control my grow hub. I'm not sure how since they claim it works over wifi, but it did.
I'm growing in a shed outside so the hub controller is completely useless do they even think of this . From now on I'm buying from a different company and send this unuser friendly expensive light back vivosun booo!😮
Sounds like your first mistake was buying this for a grow in a shed outside.
Pointless because there should be air extraction above the light anyway. Extraction that doesn't remove potential lighting like the thing does.
Wait 70 hour life span? So after a year there trash?
You should mention the problem with the inside probe. I even noticed it in your video. It has problems with digital interference., and you kind of have to spend some time finding a good spot where the probe won’t go out every few minutes to an hour. I figured it out shortly after I got the unit, but vivosun refuses to acknowledge it and speak to me. Their CS is mid, which kind of draws me away from them slightly. They always take the stance that you’re the problem and not their products. At least that’s how they’ve made me feel.
It doesnt win any if the tests done by migro. Mars hydro and spider farmer are placing higher.
Funny how it's the sponsored videos promoting the brand 😅 I wonder why 😊
I was admiring how everything was packaged also.
The app sucks still trying to set up grow start and stop times ridiculous they don't tell what requirements you need to control it. I'm getting ready to send it back and buy from another company. Iiars!
Philip relax it’s me Philip lol. The times are one the website or you can you tube them and find them. I’m not a tech guy at all but i smoked a blunt watched a couple videos and got mine dialed in.
Smaller fans generate more noise. I dont care about hearing fans.
Buying Vivosun is an entry level mistake and a lesson in "buy once cry once". Don't be a fool, it's literally rebranded ipower junk. It not like Ac infinity that was once junk but kept invested in engendering slightly better gear overtime.
Inline fan is weak. Tent fans are built to the lowest quality and do you dare let them touch or rub against anything. They will lose 0 and start clicking. Then stop all together. .
I am on a budget i went with Vivosun and all of my electronic equipment from Vivosun are failing. Incorrect reading incorrect functioning. I got what i paid for. Lesson learned.
Lol, really not the best ... does it show and manage VPD ?
It shows it
Slow down talking just a little bit.
You can slow it down in the settings
Chinese cheap inefficient LEDs are flooding the Market. If you have CFLs , use them a while longer,competition is so strong,esp after Germany legalising ( for EU people), you can get good,cheap LEDs if you know where to look and the prices will keep dropping and Quality up, but chinese sellers are flat out lying about many of their " plant LEDs".
They sell one which you can flap open in 4 Wings,cool idea but gets really HOT and can blind you but only 8% useable light for plants 🤬
These lights are absolute trash. I gave one a spin and tested it with a par meter. The output is only about 500 par in a 1 x 1 foot space directly under the light at 12’ which is terrible. Overpriced Chinese crap with fancy packaging.
The absolute worst customer support ever! Beware before you order from this company.
a $5 PC fan that blows hot air on your plants and can't be reverses?
Btuh you are making a hard reach. Vivosun is subpar. Cheaply made garbage. Don't waste your money.. go withcAC infinity
