Stumbled into a completely new paradigm that supposedly increases yields. Looks rather simple as well. Can’t wait to test it out

Ran the tent for the better part of the day and noticed humidity gets sky high even with plants. Humid control will be a bigger battle than I thought

Feeding system is last big hurdle before we can begin the fun part. Software automation systems

PH is now calibrated but noticed voltage drops when using other systems causing bad readings. Will need a new power supply

Fired up the grow tent for the first time. After a few hiccups everything ran perfectly. All systems go

Didn’t get to turn it on today but got some final clips and adapters made. Might even be able to get the feeding system up and running too!

This man is locked in a cage for committing no crimes and yet he is able to find moments of peace and belonging. We each need to count our blessings every morning we wake up in our own beds. Godspeed Keonne

After a long couple months I am going to finally be able to kick on the first working prototype of my fully automated hydroponics system

It’s about time to assemble everything for the working prototype. I may launch without auto feeding for now

An exhaust fan mount failed so had to tweak the design. In the meantime I’m making my own Ethernet cables

Fabricating mounts for the temperature sensor and the exhaust fan. Grabbed a new type of filament that works so much better with bending/clips

Needed a smoke extractor when soldering but they’re like $50. So instead I made one out of a computer fan and carbon filter for like $5 lol

Talked with an industrial engineer today who gave my so much help I am forever grateful. It’s good to say I don’t understand anything

Real tough break tonight. Ethernet connector borks the signals from the TDS and water level sensors. Water temp works for some reason though (weird). Will have to figure out if it’s the Ethernet board tomorrow image

V3 of the water control box was a success. Will wire it up tomorrow and we should be good on that front

Learned my lesson from the last two prints. Better to make quick text components to see. Here we’re testing if the mounting holes will be properly spaced for the PCBs image
