Red's Thread ~ All things Cannabis

I suppose if I wanted a couple grams per plant and did bonsai. No friggin way 15 plants will fit in there until flower. Even with just 1 the roots would get all caught up in the fan and other hardware.

I’m sure you would find a way to make it work tho.

For me I’ll stick to the 4x8 fog tent with the 4 55 gallon totes to flower in via fog. Leave the cloner to be a cloner/seedling starter.

That’s a proper fog flower setup
OCD triggered.

i got youre DWC and FOG tents mixed up, thinking you only had the fog cloner and RDWC for flower.

and guess i forgot about the actual fog tent for flower, cause of the RDWC vid above.

so now i meant, when the next fog flower run?

the plants coming from the fog cloner and going into the RDWC confused me for a second there, my bad, thought it was a fog run you were going to do not a RDWC.
Yeah I got this set up so I can move these netpots anywhere I want.

I have 3 4 x 8 tents plus the 2x4 fog cloner and the aero cloner spots.

I’m struggling with the o2 stuff a bit. I need to get that sorted before I go back into fog flower. The do probe quits working after a few days due to buildup. I need to engineer a dunking system so I can pull the probe out of the nute water when I am not reading.

I’ll get there just takes time.

Or I could do an atmospheric fog grow I suppose. I just really want to do o2 that’s why I built this system.
 
"
Automated Dunking:
  • Servo/Actuator: Use a servo motor or linear actuator controlled by a timer or Arduino to raise/lower the probe.
  • Timer/Arduino: Set intervals for readings and dunking."
seems like something you could do easily?
 
Manual Dunking:
  • Simple: Use a sliding holder on a vertical rail to lift the probe when not in use.
  • Materials: PVC pipe, plastic holder.
3D print a rail, run a litttle motor and gear? hot glue to side?

Looks like now.

I made some progress over the last couple of weeks. I found out what was causing some of my issues with instrumentation. My latest find was that the ultrasonics kicking off was putting noise on the sensors and making them go wacky.

Setting up to go back online with fog and O2, but doing it a bit old school with dunkable probes rather than continual monitoring.

Putting water back in now, getting a baseline over the next couple of days, if all goes well I'll be planting seeds for the fog tent this weekend and taking the plunge. Intend to go seedling thru flower all in this tent, except for the germination.

Let the games begin.

RDWC trucking along nicely. Forgot to take pics, got a new puppy saturday and she has been the star in my camera this weekend lol. Who's got time for weed when you got a puppy? ;hop

Thats kinda cool though

Sweet, can't wait.

Do was super weird.

Same sensors worked ok in RDWC but do still gets a white buildup presumably nutes on the sensor tip within a week. Gets slowly less responsive over time and then just goes nuts only when the ultrasonic kicks on

Still learning but making progress

some electromagnetic interference from the ultrasonics freq?
 
Mixed feelings on this one. Putting a whole grow in the hands of a robot is too far for me at least now. Gonna use this at first to control VPD via the humidifier only. If it works well I’ll add co2. Both of those if they go haywire will not kill the whole grow.

If it works well I’ll start adding things to it. We will see.

I'll keep my eye on it and see what happens on prime day.
Agree there's just some things I'm not sure about AI being in control but I'm interested in the info it may provide mainly in the soil moisture probe and charting uptake rates according to temp and RH for dialing in a near perfect watering routine.
IDK if it could learn my room though as wild as it swings. It might have to ride the short bus to that school. 🙃

Hydro probes not shipping yet.

Supposed to be a way to dose nutes and ph thru peristaltic pumps. That would be interesting.

I got high hopes but low expectations
 
That's funny made me laugh out loud...
Did you get one of these? Wondering if I'm special or did AI think I needed it?

That "Intro to Growing Hemp" was packaged in a humidifier I bought yesterday. They must be throwing it in with different products. I haven't pulled it out of that sleeve, yet. It feels like more than a pamphlet, tho 🤷‍♂️
