This is what I suggest to people all the time. Even a pump alone mixes things up enough to keep it fresher.
Blumats and megacrop ok together?

@BigSmo brother u have the cleanest and most efficient personal grow room ive ever seen. If anyone was looking to get away from tents and set up a nice automated room I would highly recommend they look in to the CobShop Lights and Grow Room engineering and components department. Lots of great help just looking at your pics.
Not everyone has the space for a big grow but this can easily be done in just about any size grow. With 2 full time contracts going right now I’m basically working 2 40 hour weeks and the grow lights on top of that. I am so grateful I did all this work to the grow when I did. It really stinks not to make it to my room for days at a time but it’s managing itself. Sensor push keeps me informed on the temps and humidity and nest cams inside and outside the building keeps me up to date on the plants and any unexpected visitors. Not to mention the citizen cob powered security lights outside.
The best part is you can enjoy the grow more than being a slave to it. If you can’t make it in or if you take a weekend off it’s ok and the best part is you get to enjoy the labor almost instantly.

So true let the equipment do the work for u like it's intended, one question though, is the Sensor push like the pulse lab gadget, I'm looking for something like that but with more options. Something that can also link my equipment to it so can control on/off switch via wifi away from home or turn pumps on/off or maybe give them a treat of feed with a push of a button from miles away.
I’m not 100% sure on the pulse. It may be the same company. As for the rest of the equipment I don’t know the names but do know it’s out there. My original plan was to do this about 3 years ago when I first built the room. I only made it as far as research though. With a float valve on your res and nutrient injection the plants do not need much attention at all. Room controllers handle humidity, co2 and cooling. So it is 100% possible to be hands off after you drop the seed. Expensive but hands off. After this all you would need is a good trimming machine. The space I designed for the guy in Montana is expecting to do 12,500 in product every 25 days. Not as automated as above but very close.

Thank u , ya im about to start a travel position for my job and will be gone 3-4 days a couple times a month at most, but would like to be able to monitor and control as much as possible, and in my photo tents I would like to test out a way to control lighting and feeding via wifi. Almost forgot a long while back I asked about ur curing cabinet and u gave me some awesome insight on it, well I'm finally going to finish mine up this afternoon that's similar structure wise yours, but I just got my PC fans in today, so will install them, my cabinet is 4'w, 6'tall, and 22" deep inside, and 6" off the floor with a full screen bottom and 10 screen shelfs, I'm putting 4 4" PC fans across the top to pull air through it, going to make a range hood from some old ducting I have then direct it to and old chimney sweep where I have a home depot 6" squirrel cage fan to help pull it up better. In the past I used an old wooden shed I restore on the farm, I put a 3" layer of cardboard inside the whole shed, and set up fans, I can do 30 elbows in it easy in about 2weeks tops usually 11 days it's ready for jar, but anyway in good to add the cardboard to inside of my cabinet also. Just swap it out every couple runs and it should e good. Thanks again for your help. Once the Amish get my equipment building finished I can get back to finishing up my big room can't wait to cut the rope for it in October.
