Please report back on how it does. I'm interested in completely automating feeding also and this would be a good budget way of doing it.

I will for sure. It's normally $210 so I felt compelled to buy it. It's the controller and pump and hopefully the sensor. It does say sensor directly so fingers crossed. I'll get it Thursday

For a second there I was like "Damn Milwaukee's coming out with EVERYTHING"

 

[Habosabin]

I meant to say doesn't mention sensor. I need to proof read better.

It was offered used, like new in a check box on the main product. Says looks new open box. So I'll return it doesn't live up to expectations on opening. I just hope I don't have to shell out $50 for the sensor.

If this works this will eliminate daily ph checks and adjustments for a week to 10 days. I have a 10 gallon res for one plant

Makes leaving town a little less stressful.

Like Milwaukee the tool maker?

Haha yeah. I looked it up expecting a red 18v ph controller

Is someone delving into dosing? I'm in......

 

[Rootsruler]

Are these peristaltic pumps supposed to work with the pH meter? I'm guessing since they're the same brand they are part of a system?

 

[steamroller]

I used and loved Milwaukee instruments in my aquariums.
Good stuff just like inkbird~!
Phsyched to see what you do.

LOL admittedly I thought the same thing

A sensor is supposed to connect to the controller. But I didn't actually see it included.

Depending on how those pumps dose you may need to dilute the pH down to gain finer control.

The res looks way better today than it did yesterday. Not sure what was going on. If it happens on next change I'll add more hydroguard again.

I feed every two days. It seem to be in it's best mood 24hr after feeding. This isn't a strain that shows trichomes at 2 weeks. But it has a lot of solid bud sites along the branch. This strain is very vigorous and I'm hoping the buds grow as happy as she is now.

 

[Habosabin]

Im running 180 watts right now for the curious. 70cm x 70cm. I thinks that's 5.1sf.
DLI looks to be around 40 to 45 via Photone on my iPad.

 

[Habosabin]

Here is the info on the strain from the breeder. Says the plant is strong and vigorous and loves light. Flowering is 63 days on the long end let's hope she's close by then.

Here is the moisture lvl of the media over a 7 day period. The spikes are my waterings every 48 hrs. I use a $30 ecowitt moisture meter with wifi base to see on my phone. I think the wifi portion is $45 or 50. Yup. Habosabin budget high tech shed grow by the river.

 

[Habosabin]

On another note kali pge is raising electric rates 10 to 13%. I pay about $650(equivalent) in electricity per month already. My solar contributes $250 and I pay additional $400 per month!! I have to be in some sort of simulation testing my sanity.

Here is the picture of the mother and another clone that was started in a tent then brought outside. They look so different. The full outside one has long leafy buds. The smaller clone is expressing citrus undertones.View attachment 22968View attachment 22969View attachment 22970View attachment 22971View attachment 22972

Nice little slice of paradise you got their.

Nice pattern.

30$ for a moisture meter?

Haven't looked into em yet but that's doable.

That or manually weighing and measuring and jotting it down and comparing.

Thanks.

This really helps me understand what's going on in the media. It's interesting to see the second day drop so fast.

If you don't get the wifi part it comes with a lcd wireless receiver.

Agree.

Sensors are important when playing "god"

This helped me with my rockwool immensely. Hempy so far is way more forgiving and the plant seems to thrive in it.

You can see it in the bucket. It's green and I have tape over the red led. It uses 1 aa and I haven't had to change it yet. This is second grow with it.

Holy fuck

My lst bill was 300 but should be around 200 if shit wasn't fucked I think

Think my AC isn't performing as efficiently for example and it's running longer even when lights are off during the day and it's only 90 outside....

Might need a checkup and tune. Rates here are triple between 4pm and 9pm. And now they are going to raise it 13%.

Damn, sorry

I couldn't afford any more bill raises rn
