As bitcoin rigs become unprofitable to operate, some new ways are to be found to supplement miners' income. One such way is to use the heat produced by the rigs to grow an agricultural substance. There are two kinds of plants which immediately come to mind - cucumbers and marihuana. Both products should be quite popular with middle-age hippie girls.
What do you think is preferable?

Heat doesn't grow plants, homie, light does.
Providing heat is rarely the issue with indoor cultivation; exhausting it nearly always is.

^ this You could switch your mining rigs off, use the same electricity to power some decent HPS lights and grow yourself some scrog-grown powerplant, sell the product, and you will earn far more than you could by mining bitcoins  [*check your local laws before attempting. lol] |

Growing the in the winter is hard, the mining rigs do some good jerky though. I wonder if I bury a broken 6950 in some soil, keep it warm and well watered I will grow a working one.

If it could be done legally I think I would have myself a new career, even with the significantly reduced profit margin. This being said some people have been raided by the police because they thought their electricity consumption was due to a "grow op" rather than their mining rigs. Kind of a sad state of affairs the world is where you can get searched and raided just for using more electricity (even when you are paying for it). |

All over Europe? at least under 100 um, and wider sieves do not actually 'bubble' But again depends if it is from plain old bigbud or some haze variety |

I guess electricity will be a drawback, but I am sure they could use a bit of California methodology. |

I hear that the FEDS will be raiding some places in Cali soon.
Meh. That has been the case since SB420 passed in '96. It's nothing new. |

Damn, I wish they would make ganga legal in the UK. Mind you, I think I would be too wasted to do anything, not that I do much now  |
