I'm not really a cat person but they are kinda cute sometimes.

I'll take my leave lol.

Smoking a bowl always softens me up, haha.

My cat (and his pibull boyfriend) would strongly disagree.

The blue cutting guide can also act as a washer but I think the tires and 25 mm studs works perfect. It levels itself out.

Got some seeds wet again. Got itchy not having something going. RDWC.

I’m hoping in 2 weeks this fog system will be back online. As long as the electronics don’t kick my ass when I get everything wired back up. Actually, that always happens. And now I’m adding wireless on the sensors, but it works on the bench. We’ll see.

Everything just got smaller more powerful wireless and cheaper. Thank you gods of supply chains

It’s rubber I poured on there. Sold as flex seal at Home Depot but pretty pricy there.

Makes gettin a good seal a lot easier and prevents light leaks.

Pretty quick read that makes me wonder about ozone?

The link mentions O2 levels of 4 as bad, 8 as OK normal, and up to 30 possible and beneficial. I'm working up in the 30s.

Ozone might be something interesting to play with in a sterile system, you would not need H2O2 then. But the regulation of that ozone would be very important, and safeties put in place. It would require a lot of hardware and know how and would still present significant risk even to humans if done indoors and something goes wrong.

I'm not sure I could be convinced to try it honestly. Not when O2 is safe and super-effective with similar hardware requirements.

Yup, like I said OK Normal. It's what you get and is sustainable via normal bubbling. Its a number that comes from Henry's Law and the 20.9% O2 in the atmosphere at sea level. Takes work to get it any higher than that.


OK Mosh, Aqua, anybody with a flair for engineering, looking for ideas.

This is how I previously penetrated the res for cables and hoses and such. I print the white 2 part bung, then made molds and poured silicone to make rubber stoppers that fit in the bung tight and hold the cord with a good seal.









I'd really like to improve on this concept and accommodate more wires (adding 2 pumps and 4 probes) and make it more flexible in terms of adding or removing components.

All ideas welcome, sometimes it is just best to talk it out. Even off the wall shit can lead to a good solution. Whatcha got stoners?

Ozone in water can be destructed on-demand with UV in a closed system. It isnt necessary to have ozonated water running through your entire system, could be a loop on a seperate skid like a chiller. Food for thought. I had a 10yr relationship with water and ozone so if you have any questions I might be able to help. It can be safely managed.

I’ll let aqua answer that. The OG and oxygen use is all him.
