Major Update: Bitcoin Mining Heat-Capture Season 2025 HeatHarvest Greenhouse / Proof-of-Growth: Purple Sweet Potatoes & Crawfish, Vlog 2: Claws & Roots , Move-In, Tune-Up, and Flip to Spring. This Vlog features several big upgrades: Insulated, layered floor: Rubberized PVC, coconut coir, and cement "layered", insulated concrete slab so our precious Bitcoin heat isn’t wicked into the earth. Detailed post on the layered insulated concrete will be added to this thread soon. Crawfish move-in: Two breeding tanks plus the orange stock tub now hold backup breeders and bulk crawfish stock. We also built and assembled a custom vertical hydroponics growing system that ties directly into the stock tub. Biological synergy: Crawfish produce ammonia that microbes convert to nitrite and then nitrate for the plants. As plants take up these nutrients, they scrub the water, creating a cleaner, healthier environment for the crawfish and steady feed for the plants. Temporary automated heating: A modified S19j Pro running a two-hashboard, 120 V modded configuration is keeping the HeatHarvest greenhouse warm, even after a recent drop to 20 F. A simple thermostat brings the #Bitcoin miner online with target of 80 F; so far, temperatures have held between 60–77 F. With winter setting in, the rig hasn’t turned off, so we’re steadily mining Bitcoin and producing HEAT. Purple sweet potatoes moved in: Twelve 10-gallon grow bags filled with organic soil and our cloned purple sweet potatoes grown from seed potatoes over the spring/summer are now in place, for roughly 960 pounds of total grow soil medium in the greenhouse. Flip to “spring”: We switched the greenhouse to 24-hour light, sun by day, and an auto-switch runs the grow lights from dusk till dawn. This extended photoperiod, drives aggressive vegetative growth and pushes the HeatHarvest greenhouse into “spring.” Status: So far, so good. It took two days to dial in all systems. The real challenge was balancing the closed, circular system between the crawfish stock tank and the vertical hydroponics system. We officially switched to spring conditions three days ago, and we’re already seeing spinach seedlings showing strong growth. What’s next for Vlog 3 Command Console: Time to give the console some attention and make the HeatHarvest greenhouse as smart and automated as possible. This will house the automation “brain” and our more permanent heating system. We’re waiting on a unique piece of Bitcoin-mining hardware for the final heating setup, it’s going to be very special. Stay tuned. More spinach starts: Germinate and raise seedlings to 4 inches in a 50/50 coco coir + perlite blend. This keeps roots in a loose medium for easy transfer into the vertical hydroponics system, fed by nutrient-rich water from the crawfish stock tank. Healthy crawfish: Keep parameters dialed so breeding ramps up and egg production begins. Build the smart M.O.E.M. (Mining Operation Environmental Monitor), HeatHarvest Monitor (open source): Custom PCB + hardware + firmware (released free and open source on the HeatHarvest GitHub). It will monitor temperature, humidity, O₂, and CO₂, and send email/notification alerts on anomalies (e.g., sudden temperature drops). It will also log long-term data for this season and future HeatHarvest runs. Also feature a web app that allows us to monitor the HeatHarvest greenhouse 24/7 remotely. Sponsorship stickers: We also need to add our permanent sponsorship stickers. The greenhouse humidity destroyed several sticker rounds, so we’ve ordered permanent vinyl replacements for the sponsor banner. Current plants in the HeatHarvest greenhouse: Purple sweet potatoes, spinach, mint, avocados, and Japanese honeysuckle with more to come as space allows. Countless micro-projects are underway before Vlog 3. Stay tuned, I’ll keep this thread updated until the next Vlog is live. Would like to welcome our latest Sponsor Ungovernable Misfits.

The pumpkins seen here were germinated and started early inside the HeatHarvest greenhouse, giving them a strong head start well before outdoor conditions were suitable for growth.

Stack your corn with Bitcoin heat! Got a little cold front coming in, not willing to chance it. This S19 is more than capable of bumping the temps back into the perfect range and making sure the corn doesn’t go into cold shock. Corn isn’t typically grown this way unless you’re chasing a very specific outcome. In this case, maintaining the genetics of an heirloom sweet corn variety that is, hands down, the most buttery, sweet-tasting corn I’ve ever had. I’ve never found another variety that comes close. So every year, I grow a small batch in very controlled conditions to preserve the genetics and keep it going. Bitcoin heat can be one of the greatest resources for sustainable agriculture when used with intention. In this case, it’s helping protect something rare, useful, and worth carrying forward.

I'm not sure everyone has fully grasped the profound implications of @X 's latest monetary upgrade announcements. For most of us, our X accounts have been largely social, infused with a bit of personal or business identity and value but that's evolving rapidly. With the recent announcements around integrated payments, trading, smart cashtags, and digital wallets, your X account could soon be directly linked to your financial future, potentially even building long-term, generational wealth. It might become a hub where real-world value is created, stored, and transacted seamlessly. If that's the trajectory, it's crucial to elevate your account security now. That's why I'm developing a dedicated security device tailored specifically for X accounts. Stay tuned.

Amid record-breaking snow and ice, Bitcoin mining heat is sprouting chamomile like it’s spring! Outside below-zero, inside the HeatHarvest greenhouse a toasty 80 F!
