Told ya
Well fk, gotta start dinner, I'll have to catch pices of the rest.i used to belong to one of those drinking clubs (the fraternal order of the eagles (FOE)) and they would have nascar watches and every time there was a cation it was 25 cent shots... a night at bristol was a good night!!!!! hahaha
Love the 3rd pic.lights are about to come on so i snapped a few pics.. also turned up the spectrum to 80% power.. this marks the fourteenth night of flowering...

I was an Eagle! Big fun back in my drinking days...and a Moose
Edit: I'm a NHRA fan tho
Looking good bud!
As you noted in my thread we’re on the same timeline. Unfortunately we aren’t as lush as yours.
Got about a week of stretch left I think. We’ve had two warm days in a row so I’m hoping the magic starts now.![]()
Looking very nice!! Why can't I take pics like thatlol Everytime I see this thread, my brain plays that song by the b-52's, damn you! lol
ahhh yeah the ol FOE baby!!! i'm a drag racing fan, not as much as i once was but still watch em!! that 4 wide is awesome!!
you're right man i'm just now seeing some slowing the past couple days, it's about time for me to take them all out and rearrange them all for the final time and set the net on. i was looking last night and i might have to remove my shelf brackets to get the net on perfect, something i need to look at. i also need to keep reminding me myself to check my rear vent, i was messing with it and might have accidentally moved it and i need to make sure there are no light leaks coming from the other cabinet. the only way i can check is empty it and go inside and close the doors.
gonna mix up some more tea this weekend again.. i just hope they're ready for some water. these are all very slow drinkers except the tall sour tangie she is drinking four to five times the amount and every few days. the others go like week before needing water. this is another reason i want to take them all out and get hands on each one fell the weight. i'll keep that tangie up front just to make it easy to water..
Thanks SkinnyP!! i think the black walls make the photos better than what they are. i just use an old nikon point and shoot.
thats the threads theme song right there!!!! ahhhh yeah!!!
4 wide! It was on last weekend
I was an Eagle most of the 80's, had some great times with those brothers!






Wall to wall flowers!!!! Looking great!

25 days in
Nice
I suspect, and hope those fuckers mass up for ya.
Swell them bitches.
Have you thought about crop steering methods at all, lol? Nows the time to try a little Generative crop steering techniques, nothing too crazy, its mainly water volume and e.c variables at certain times, besides the environment, I think. Lol.

WC% sensors?me too man!! hopin they get swole!!!!! last time i SOG'd i ended up with a pound, hoping to beat that number this time.
not too much i haven't.. i mean i guess i do a little in some sorts.. my nute changes, my light spectrums, a little dryer in the rh.
sometimes it tough for me to manage dry backs.. they all use a different amount and i can't get in there to lift them at this point so i kind of just go with the average.. when most of them need water they all get it.
i want to start messing with these sensors and see how reliable they are...

automation is the way xDsometimes it tough for me to manage dry backs.. they all use a different amount and i can't get in there to lift them at this point so i kind of just go with the average.. when most of them need water they all get it.
WC% sensors?
or some kind of media sensor based off the stake like look?

Well...I recently learned about "leaf sensors", they measure the turgor pressure supposedly, and can "accurately"(?) tell when a plant needs watering again, I bet you could go down that rabbit hole and design that too, looked fairly simple, nearly 3D printed device that clips on to the leafs, I can post a link if you want, more evolved than me atmyep, a soil moisture sensor. i believe it's a on or off signal. but it also has an analog so maybe it can report a variable resistance.. i haven't messed with it at all but i plan to soon.
i also want to pick up this model to compare the two..
![]()
that one also as a digital and analog.
it would be cool just to start with a monitor till i trusted it.. maybe a multi color led for each plant, green is get ready to water in a couple days - yellow is if ya wanna make tea now's the time - and red is for dude what are doing water your freakin plants!! haha
if/when i trusted it i would connect auto watering to each plant.
get ec soil sensors and do nute dosing with it too.. with all that you wouldn't even need a human to grow.
Sorry, I don't exactly understand the digital and analog difference in this scenario.yep, a soil moisture sensor. i believe it's a on or off signal. but it also has an analog so maybe it can report a variable resistance.. i haven't messed with it at all but i plan to soon.

Ok glad I'm not the only that has not heard about leaf sensors...haha...I just learned this last night....regardless how ever accurate it may be...oh that sounds cool as hell... yeah man, show me!!!
so the digital would either be an off or on option, like all or nothing. where as analog could give a variable output from say 1 to 10 and anywhere in between.
the "megas" can read up to 16 analog inputs. that just happens to be the same number of plants i grow!!!!

looks like plastic and some wire and a pcb board? Copper wires? I don't know that stuff as well/terminologyOk glad I'm not the only that has not heard about leaf sensors...haha...I just learned this last night....regardless how ever accurate it may be...

Leaf sensors can tell farmers when crops need to be watered | Penn State University
Plant-based sensors that measure the thickness and electrical capacitance of leaves show great promise for telling farmers when to activate their irrigation systems, preventing both water waste and parched plants, according to researchers in Penn State's College of Agricultural Sciences.www.psu.edu

so these sensors actually measure the thickness of the leaf to determine moisture... brilliant!!!!!!!!!!
looks like plastic and some wire and a pcb board? Copper wires? I don't know that stuff as well/terminology
But here's some of the info
Figure you and moe know or could figure out more about this and coding the software, And 3d printing the hardware.
And wanted yalls opinion, maybe this could be another cheap tool/sensor easily manufactured us.
Yea that price is insane I figured you could make this so much cheaper and then tell me how lol =)wow $130 per sensor.. 16 sensors = $2080 for my setup.. the rest is all doable and can be DIY.
.
yeah i googled your "leaf sensor" and it one of the first results!!! haha

i did see a calibration page somewhere, i think on the first link, the aeroponics page linkmaybe buy just one and backward engineer it...
it might just be a measuring laser that shines through the leaf.
it might need to be calibrated for each individual plant.. measure the leaf when the plant is happy, then measure when dry. then tell the computer to look for those numbers from the sensor and react however you tell it.
not hard to connect or program really. just depends on the accuracy of the measurement.

That doesn't sound too difficult to calibrate per batch either, one could dry out the plant and take measurements with the right device in a consistently controlled environment.not hard to connect or program really. just depends on the accuracy of the measurement.
Unfortunately it doesn’t sound like you could use one and run multiple leads to plants. Unless the board has multiple contact points. Out of my zone of knowledge.maybe buy just one and backward engineer it...
