Guovsahas 363 Posted February 18 Report Share Posted February 18 Are there any other electronics builders on this forum? I build a bit but recently I started looking at creating a fertigation system and a controller which controls all parameters in the grow room 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Godess_T 232 Posted February 21 Report Share Posted February 21 Hi Bro my opinion is to learn how to grow with your hands first, before automating something. Franco taught me how to grow and I think he would have shared my opinion ... Peace Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Peace Hi, I've been growing outdoors for a bit over a decade, I am a biodynamic gardener and I've worked at biodynamic farms, I also build electronics it started with midi instruments and I code C#, python and swift but I've been looking at fertigation systems and I've been tinkering with arduino boards and raspberry pi's for 5 years so I started looking into challenging new project, Sure I would prefer a farm like some of my friends have who grow a couple of plants in a greenhouse on their property but the problem is that I can't afford buying a property for a couple of million euros so I'm a guerilla grower and it's always a fun challenge, land is expensive here where I live in Scandinavia. I've been trying to convince my wife to move to Canada instead but she doesn't want to leave her friends, etc which I respect so I got to do my best with what I've got. I've only grown indoors once with a grow tent I won in a competition but my new project is that I'm converting a fridge with a small freezer into a grow box with two chambers, on for veg and one for flower because it doesn't stand out like a grow tent. Cool, I was fortunate to meet Franco and have a smoke during the 2012 cannabis cup in Amsterdam but didn't learn to grow from him, I learned biodynamic agriculture from going to farms and working, also I became a biodynamic gardener. My wish would be to own a farm and go fully biodynamic but I'm not a rich man so I did the best I could with what I learned working at farms to grow guerilla. Like I wrote, I'm building a fridge and I was wondering if there are any others who build electronics and code as a hobby. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm hoping to build a system which takes care of itself and notifies me when certain parameters are wrong so I can fix it 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
