Hey growdiaries! The plant's doing fabulously. Looks like it's finally done with its stretching spree, and all that good energy is channeling into beefing up the buds. ๐ฟ๐ธ
Here's the latest update:
Stable Growth: My green amigo seems to have hit a sweet spot - less stretch, more bud boost. It's like it's found its zen in the bloom phase.
Moisture Sensor Calibration: Nailed the moisture sensor issue! I tweaked it with a temp correction, 'cause the temps were messing with the readings.
Now, the graphs are looking way more legit. ๐๐ก๏ธ
Nutrition on Point: Still rolling with the bloom stage feeding schedule.
It's all about that balanced diet for peak flower power. ๐ฅฆ๐ช
Ready for the next level? 'Cause here's what we're aiming for in the upcoming week. ๐ฏ
Data Collection Fine-Tuning:
Gonna revamp the data gathering process for soil moisture. It's all about accuracy, right? So, I'm updating the 'dry' and 'watered' soil baseline values to get the real deal on the moisture front.
By refreshing those raw values, we'll have a solid ground (pun intended) for our moisture readings. No more guesswork, just pure, precise data. ๐ฑ๐ง
Gearing up for a week of tweaks and triumphs. Let's get our hands dirty (in the cleanest way possible) and make sure our plant's living its best life! ๐ ๏ธ๐ป
That's the word from the green world, GD. Let's keep this bloom boom going! ๐๐ผ
Was ist das fรผr ein System um deine Daten so im Blick zu haben ? Bin auch am suchen um alles noch einen Ticken besser zu kontrollieren kรถnnen .
Ansonsten happy Grow ๐๐ฑ
@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
