End of Week 3: I'm still grappling with the air humidity levels.
Debating whether to invest in a new humidifier or to hold off for another week.
With the flowering phase approaching, lower humidity becomes crucial.
Despite this, the plant's appearance remains robust and healthy.
I've been following the Terra Aquatica nutrient schedule for soil cultivation meticulously.
Considering initiating Low Stress Training (LST) to enhance growth and yield.
Will need to monitor closely and adjust as necessary.
Merry Christmas and Happy growing everyone! <3
Was ist das für ein System um deine Daten so im Blick zu haben ? Bin auch am suchen um alles noch einen Ticken besser zu kontrollieren können .
Ansonsten happy Grow 🍀🌱
@Kazzy420, hi there! I did it by myself using Raspberry Pi and some other stuff from amazon.
here is a full set:
- Raspberry Pi 4 to collect metrics and control environment (63 usd)
- capacitive soil moisture sensor (8 usd for 4 pieces)
- air temperature sensor (12 usd for two pieces)
- air humidity sensor (model: dht22)
- USB powered water pump for drip watering (like 10 usd)
- USB camera to get instant photo of the plant (that was a gift)
- telegram bot to receive environment alerts and to get instant information about the plant including: temperature, humidity, soil moisture level, current day and week and a status of the plant
the next week I will set up scheduled watering (not just by tapping message to telegram bot)
and also I bought Raspberry compatible TDS sensor, but haven't set it up yet :)
I wrote exporter in Python to export metrics to the database and store them for 1 year. I use Prometheus as a database for metrics.
For visualization I use Grafana
telegram bot was written using Python
all the software run on Raspberry
