In this video I show you in real-time as I alter my farms hardware and configuration to start plotting and harvesting C7 plots.

With the up and coming havening in April/May of next year, it is important to prepare for the reduction in earnings. A rewards boost from this level of compression should ease the pain slightly.

So join me as I 'dip' my toe in the water, find out the water is actually quite warm, and then dive in head first. It's C7 all the way for my NAS units and Disk shelves now.

Thank you for watching the video and for your ongoing support. It means a lot to me that people are enjoying what I build and show.

Please consider giving a thumbs-up, subscribing and hitting the bell notification icon, so you are made aware of my new video content. I love to read your comments and at the moment can read and respond to most of them.

Also, keep an eye on the 'Community' tab. I often post items here giving updates, news and photos that don't warrant the creation of a full video.

Additional Information
--------------------
Note that I am using the latest CHIA client V2.1.1 on both my plotter and harvester. I cannot guarantee that using an earlier version will work or look the same.

Hardware
----------------
NVidia RTX 3060ti 8GB (Bladebit GPU Plotting)
NVidia G-Force GT1030 2GB (GPU Harvesting)
----------------

Bladebit CUDA command line activation
------------------------------------------------------------------
Change the farmer key, contract key and temp1 and temp2 drive references for your own. Noe that the 'n' item currently specifies the creation of a single plot. Adjust this as required. Also not the use of '--disk-128' which allows me to GPU plot on my 128GB system. Put in a '.ps1' file on your desktop.

C:\Users\[User]\AppData\Local\Programs\Chia\resources\app.asar.unpacked\daemon\.\chia plotters bladebit cudaplot -d temp1 -2 temp2 --disk-128 -f farmerkey -c contractkey -n 1 --compress 7
------------------------------------------------------------------

ROBOCOPY for Windows
-----------------------------------------
Yes this is a very simple version of what the plow.py Python script does but If you are not creating plots quicker than the time it takes o copy them from your SSD buffer to the hard drive then this may work for you like it did for me. Save into a '.ps1' file on your desktop.
