Monitoring your grow environment...

Hi there RabidReject, yeah man, congrats on the cool set up, i've got much the same but with commercial-grade controllers that have all these lasers and shit lmfao. Do they work? kinda. Basically what happens is the sensors can get foggy due to the humidity and the in soil sensors get a similar issue which can lead to weirrd readings. so you want to wipe them down as often as possible... That's just how it is, even with the 0 dollar controllers it's the same story. Hope this helps ! 🚀

I honestly don't monitor outside of a couple of cheap temp / RH gauges. With an organic soil and water only grow I don't have to fight as hard with things. I used to fight like hell with temp and RH and then I moved the tents to my basement. Temps stay pretty steady and don't fluctuate as much there. So, I started with cameras and fancy stuff, but simplified the grow to water only and timers for lights so that if I am unexpectedly gone for 48 hrs, I know the worst that is gonna happen is they might be a bit thirsty.
