Cannamon: Cannabis Monitoring using ESP8266

[PulsarBlue]

Hey there!

This project was already in motion and has been used by me for a couple of weeks now. With my first post [0], I saw an interest [1] in the project and decided to write a guide [2], share configuration files so that you can build one for yourself. If you are a little into software and electronics, you can build a nice monitoring system with inexpensive parts, create beautiful charts, setup alarms so that when your humidifier runs out of water, you get a push notification.

The project is developed on GitHub: https://github.com/pulsargreen/cannamon. You can check out the documentation. There are still some improvements but most of the content is done. Please feel free to try it out, ask questions, share your ideas, report bugs and problems. I'm happy to help you guys.

Take care,
PB

Man, I taught myself to code at 13 years old in '94. Wernt even books on it, muchless web sites. Did it for 25 years passionately. In the past I'd be all over this project with you.

But now I have PTSD from fascist nazi taking over all big tech and ain't touched a keyboard since flu of '20. Doubt I ever will until they all gone. They literally stole billions from me that I put out with good hearted open sourcesness.

You know IBM invented databases for Hitler to track jews for holocaust? Big tech has deep dark roots.

Don't let them brainwash you into giving your hard intellectual work out for free too. They will steal it all and incorporate it into their big machine.

I started as a hacker. You can use tech without it ever going online. That's why they want it all online, even lightbulbs.

I'm not a freak, I just know. Like a hidden database on every device saving *every* micro process action, and uploading to nazis the second it ever goes online.

@PulsarBlue Hey man! I would like to say thanks, I've inspired by you to start automate things here....
Now next step would be to buy SHT31-D to use inside the tent, I found newer versions like SHT40 but yea, i gonna follow your steps, and of course, add a Relay to turn on/off humidifier, etc. At this time im using a public MQTT + Graphana Cloud with MQTT plugin, just to see the things working and get more familliar with everything. Now i'm struggling to understand how can I external my parameters and persist them in device...

So man, thank you for insipiration and to answer my newbie questions!!

I’m super happy that you managed to get the sensor working with all MQTT components and I see that you even added an LCD screen It looks super cool!

What do you mean by persisting external parameters on the device? If you can tell what you are trying to achieve, I believe we can find a solution.
