Spider Farmer-Total lack of adequate operating instructions
I am writing this review after having a Spider Farmer grow tent for about three months. First, the tent itself, fan, blower and light (SF2000), are great. The hardware is good, but the operating software and the directions to use it are really criminally lacking in detailed instructions, and you have to blindly try to figure out what works or not. Hours of searching on the internet will give you some relief, but these are not from Spider Farmer, and even these references are not totally complete. When the app goes offline there should be a step by step set of instructions to re-pair the phone app instead of finally figuring out that the little unlabeled plus sign in the upper right corner will get you started. I finally ordered a GGS Controller and trying to get it to work was a total failure. ( I think it is defective ) I had to revert to operating things with my phone and had to re-download the app and re-input all my settings, after I had hoped to be able to set and check on things through the internet while on vacation. The service people will e-mail you back, but the total lack of detailed instructions on set up, what goes where, and how to input settings on each screen is a complete failure for a company selling this type of complicated software driven electronics. I cannot state firmly enough how frustrated I am with trying to get things to work the way they should. For example, I ordered an irrigation system that I finally got to work correctly, and had been working correctly for weeks, and went away for a weekend knowing that things would be watered in my absence. When I returned, almost five gallons of water had been dumped into the tent and if it had not been for the bathtub bottom in the tent it would have been more of a disaster than it was. Beware, unless you are wanting to fiddle with the interface a lot to figure out how things work, or are some kind of computer genius you will be confused like me.
