Turnkey stealth grow system mad science thoughts

I have access to some ( and a tame welder ) but I dont have CNC etc. If I did I'd just make trick bits for old suzukis hahaha.

meh, I had to sell my laithes and most my stuff when I moved - dads garage/container was getting out of control.

Wih I could have afforded that, looked into it for the kids but its a fucking expensive game.

Hey Guys,

GMO pointed to me to this thread and I would definitely be interested in helping you guys out with this.

I have a little experience playing with Arduino/Raspberry Pi and I am getting better at it every day ;o)

My skill set would be mostly with the software side but pretty much willing to help out with anything you need?

Medium. coco recirc/ hydro is going to give the cleanest feed back data for the sensors so we should focus on hydro imo

Agreed, that is what I went for as it the easiest to 'Automate' - think AeroGarden without the pods

are we looking to raise the plant to the lights or lower the lights to the plant?

I would say automate/dim the lights is probably the best you could do with in budget

this might be easier to handle mentally if we make it a section with subsections for the components and different variables IE;

cupboard
auto feeder (sensors and doser)
environment (fans/heater and sensors)
feed back (control/display unit)

I can already check off the last 3 to a BETA stage at least

Let me know what you guys think and if this is still an active idea ;o)

Tbh I got bored and forgot about it, but it would be nice to see it going again :)

[Minty]

You still got all the shit? What stopped you progressing mate?

[Nanook]

I think I do somewhere, tbh I got a bike and lost interest

[Minty]

Shame, you were on the right tracks. Fair enough though dude (on your bike ;o)

[Nanook]

Hahaha I'll see if I still have it, it's possibly under the bed but the wife's snoring atm

Any progress?
