Grow Mediums JR's Poco Loco in the Coco.....

Hey JR, just stopping by :) I've been a busy Waxi, and I've been shirking my subbed threads! *The gallows pole for me*
Hope all is well on the 3rd coast, Brother!
some love

Hey Waxi!! You havent missed a thing brother. Been feeling lazy and putting off my grow, (now that i think about it if i woulda planted two weeks ago, i would be halfway through my veg cycle!!) lol oh well.

Hope everything's good on your end!! :Sharing One:

YeP this is foreal.
Have like the same issue with the ph.. but seems to get stable right before res change LOL.
Short version.
Had a working unit (ph down). Broke the unit, getting better parts..
Microcontroller (arduino)
Ph probe.
Dosing pump.
When ph reach to x ph value. it will dose ph down so res gets to y value. simple really.
Let the ph rise back up.. and then down again.....
Menu/settings/calibration e.t.c.
Working on another project atm. but this will be done.
This thread will keep you in the loop

Just failed trying to read the thread lol... all of that stuff went waaay over my head.. pretty frickin cool projects you guys have going on tho seriously!!! Youre a tech warrior brother!!!
 
Nobody said i whould be easy to make..
Some of the work have already been done, By others (Open source).
Im always up, for a challenge...
:smoke:
 
Cant wait to do it bro, gonna start reading up on it. What are you using to actually dispense the solution..? Like a bottle with a valve that opens and only releases a certain amount? or like a pump in a seperate res with ph down and pumps it out into the actual plants res tank.. if that makes sense lol just trying to picture it in my head and the actual size of it.

Im using a peristaltic dosing pump. 12v 500ma . flowrange 0 - 100ML a min
Dosing from a bottle with detsilled water ph´d down to about 4 ish..
It pumps directly into the res.

These are some of the parts used
