Trailblazer420 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 If all goes well, this will mean something over the next few 'days' hopefully. Arduino coders, input is welcomed and appreciated. Sent from my EVA-L09 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trailblazer420 Posted March 20, 2019 Author Share Posted March 20, 2019 Alrighty, proof of concept at 50%, I've got the eskom on/off portion sorted. Both relays clicking so I don't believe the LED side will have any issues. Sent from my EVA-L09 using Tapatalk 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trailblazer420 Posted March 20, 2019 Author Share Posted March 20, 2019 Proof of concept successful on basic config, will post full diagram and coding later on... Sent from my EVA-L09 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McB Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Awesome. Will dig up my box of arduino crap and see if I haven't bricked it yetSent from my ANE-LX2 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trailblazer420 Posted March 25, 2019 Author Share Posted March 25, 2019 New tent is assembled and arduino connected. It wasn't staying on, high and low swapped around. Never thought I'd need to fetch my pc to troubleshoot my lighting :) Sent from my EVA-L09 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trailblazer420 Posted March 26, 2019 Author Share Posted March 26, 2019 Next step is to have an idea what's going on with the Temps and humidity... Decided ti place the LCD inside the tent for the interim, so I'm not connecting the back light. Once my new arduino boards arrive, I'll work on automated watering.

SuMi Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Hey , Sorry I am new on here . I travel alot because of my job . I have already created something like this but with alot more in it . I can control lighting schedules , soil moisture , PH of a feed . I can also set the system to switch a plant into flower so it follows a 12/12 light schedule. Will soon need to add in abit more that I have thought about . Waiting for the time . The system can also be monitored and controlled remotely via a web application I have set up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trailblazer420 Posted November 20, 2019 Author Share Posted November 20, 2019 Yeah, quite a lot changed since my original post, but 'play time' is a little limited. I've included auto watering. I need to set aside time to finalize code so I can save time hehe. I'm still adjusting ph manually in my resivoir.

Ill_Evan Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 This is awesome. Something like this is what would push me towards wanting to learn coding in general. Very awesome stuff @Trailblazer420 and @SuMi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trailblazer420 Posted November 20, 2019 Author Share Posted November 20, 2019 There are quite a lot of YouTube videos that teach you to do coding specifically for arduino... Sent from my CLT-L29 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're willing, you're more than welcome to share some of that code and save me a few weeks :) Sent from my CLT-L29 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
