I meant to hit reply. But yeah, soil. Going to be running LED.So what grow setup are you going to run? Soil?
Yeah, some failure is expected. It’s a great teacher, and I’m going to aim for a bunch of redundancy. However, I’m interested in learning to collect and react to data as much (or more) as I am interested in using it to grow.My best advice for you having done this kinda thing is plan for failure. Software or something will come up mid grow and try to take a hunk out of your ass when you do a DIY from scratch.
Will you running this in parallel with standard control devices?
I punched a hole for my Inkbird cables to go through into the room 4x4 I use now. The readouts are mounted outside so I can see without entering. I taped over the hole for light leaks. I think it’s a good idea to see from outside too. Good luck making a spaceI did not read the entire thread.
I am building a 4x4 with sensors built in to it. On the outside of the door will be a cheap tablet WIFI'ed to my main system.
2 cameras, environmental sensors. I can check it without opening the door and possibly contaminating the plants.
Yeah. I learned on the HC08. Brutal. Arduino, less brutal but still hard. Low level is hard for me.I was very much into computers and stuff 30 years ago. LOL It's changed, but its still the same.
I always look for the simplest method to accomplish my goal. Programming a new system is not a simple task.
If I can utilize existing hardware and software, then so much the better. ASM8088 and 8086 is not my idea of a relaxing day.
That sucks that it messed up your grow. What was the outcome? Did they re-veg? Or just way low yield? It’s an awful feeling to make a dumb mistake and watch the aftermath. Especially when you know it was only you.My failure was wireless comms failing to control the lights properly, so I had a shitty grow where plants in flower would get 24 hour light from time to time and I didn't realize it. That sucked and was my fault.
