Tried to put together a good reply but got nothing for ya ozy, ill just sit back smile nod an say yea i understand. :bigjoint:
Although it makes sense an once ya have everything sorted an some basic understandin of how everything works it would be allot easier to control the inviroment.
It’s fairly straight forward really M8. For temp: AC & heater. For Relative humidity: dehumidifier & humidifier. For air exchange: intake and exhaust fans. For co2: an injection system (bottled or burner). Lights: your light/s.
All that gets hooked into a programmable controller that has some smarts in it and has a sensor that monitors the conditions. Program what conditions & cycles you want (day & night) and off it goes and does it’s thing.
That’s it in its simplistic form.

I do daily. She basically just lied to me
Poor bastard! :sad:
I went halves in a grow op with a family member (never doing that again) a few years ago, invested about $10,000 into gear all for the other guy to get over it after about 8weeks. We were taking turns looking after them, rotating weekly, until I went around after having my week off to find what was potentially about 5 pounds worth all past the point of no return!
He just couldn’t be bothered any more.
Only had about 4 weeks till harvest.
Nearly knocked him out!

(might have told this story b4
a few years back i got laid up in hospital for 3 weeks, mid flowering, told her to just mix 30 mls of A and B,

got back 3 weeks later to half dead zombie looking things, and I said show me how you mixed it

she proceeded to pour out 30mls of B, then another 30 mls of B, so 60mls of B

i then asked her what the A bottle was for and she just shrugged it off :sad:

Yep, feel for you and @DustyDuke.
Had an ex girlfriend years ago in outdoor days, I went away for 3 weeks. Told her if it doesn’t rain for during a week, flick this switch on, keep it on for an hour and turn it off. Came back to empty house tanks, burnt out pump and a drenched plot. She wondered why there was no water for the house.

Fairly straight forward then. Do you run one controller that everything hooks into or is it done over a cpl units. Sorry for the useless questions :cool:
