Autumn is well and truly here. With it comes the colder, wetter weather that can for some growers be both a blessing and a curse. Mould is something to be especially alert to, as a combination of factors in the outdoor environment make mould spores much more prevalent and thus more likely to find their way into your grow room.
There's nothing to fear though; after all, we growers are the masters of our own domain, and providing we optimise and maintain our own environment, mould won't have a chance to take hold.
It's with this in mind that we're going to use this blog as an opportunity to focus on a range of new climate control products for October 2024.
AC Infinity Thermoforge T3 Heater
The latest addition to the AC Infinity family is the Thermoforge T3 Heater. Uniquely designed to be able to heat spaces from outside, it features an internal fan and 140cm of ducting, allowing the grower to provide precise placement of heat to wherever it's needed. Compatible with the UIS range of controllers (Controller 69, 69 Pro and 69 Pro+), it's capable of maintaining a set temperature by automatically turning on and off as required.
AC Infinity Cloudlift Fans
AC Infinity circulation fans are amongst the highest quality fans on the market, with the Cloudray range being a flagship example of what can be done when build quality and functionality are both emphasised during development. The Cloudlift is no different; exceptionally quiet yet powerful, while also compatible with the full range of UIS controllers (including the Controller 67) it'll be a considerable upgrade to your existing circulation fan. Available as in either 12" or 14".

Bonus New Products
Below are some of the latest non-climate-related products that we couldn't miss telling you about.
Cali Touch PGR
Known as 'Cali's best kept secret', Cali Touch contains natural PGRs (not the harmful synthetic ones) to help you get the best growth and yield from your plants. Super concentrated at only 2ml per 100L of water, Cali Touch goes a long way!
Cali Touch stimulates a hormonal response in plants, leading to increased chlorophyll production, enhanced photosynthesis, and improved nutrient uptake. It activates both biological and physiological processes, driving optimal plant development during the crucial flowering phase.
Nokotech Simplex MAXI-FIT 240w
The newest member of the Nokotech family, the Simplex MAXI-FIT is a 4-bar LED grow light designed for small hobby growers and boasts an outstanding performance and efficiency. This LED grow light measures only 50×50 cm, making it an ideal fit for small spaces. Featuring top-quality Osram and San’an LEDs, it's powered and controlled by a high-end 240W LED driver.
Weighing only 1.7 kg (including 240W LED driver), the Simplex MAXI-FIT offers a balanced full-spectrum output with high PPE (2.8 µmol/J) and PPF (668 µmol/s), giving it the potential to be a favourite among small growers. The light supports daisy-chaining and can be controlled by any 0-10V controller.
Nokotech Undercover 150
One of the very latest growing innovations to hit the market this year is the Undercanopy light (check out our Undercanopy blog for more detailed information).
Capable of safely, efficiently and effectively illuminating the underside of your canopy, the Nokotech Undercover LED grow light is a high-quality, great value-for-money solution, bulking out and encouraging the ripening of lower growth.
Coming as a twin pack, you'll get 2 x 150w grow lights that will cover 1.2m x 1.2m grow spaces. We don't like to use the term 'game changer' too frequently, but more many growers the Nokotech Undercover 150 is just that - potentially saving hours of undercanopy stripping while improving quality and increasing yields by up to 30% at the same time!
IWS Trident Upgrade Packs
With many growers now choosing to move over to the new IWS Trident design thanks to it's superior technology, we've been getting lots of requests from existing IWS Flood & Drain users who want to upgrade without unnecessarily purchasing all the components (due to the fact that many components are shared).
It's with this in mind that we've created our IWS Trident Flood & Drain Upgrade Packs, available in both 16L and 25L pot sizes.
