but for the cloner the roots are not submerged in the water, so the temp is not so much of a limiting factor since the water is sprayed in intervals. Same goes with the veg system.
If the design was a bit better, there would not be 950 pages of why shit is fked up and how to figure things out.
Take your negative vibes elsewhere bro, if you built his setup and it leaks then you did it wrong.
Nice, any chance of a step by step tutorial?I chose the Hammond 1591 flanged box as the case for the project. It is small and the flanges allows you to mount it to a surface. Cost your side of the pond, about $4.50.
Additions were two status LED's, one for power status, and one for output status. Will keep you updated as and when I make progress into a physical prototype.

1. Your water temps in your flower room, if your pump is on ANY timer, will be dependent on your room temp. Not on the system. Look into venting your sealed lights. Exhaust fans on a controller for the room to control temps and humidity.
the cloner and veg system are pretty much the same thing... the only difference is you are adding nutes..
).
It shouldn't matter a bit as the plants don't have a ruler. Be sure and put some rope caulk around the edge of the res if you have any leaks.
I just put in about a 1/4 cup of regular old bleach. If everything has been running clean with no problems you can also just wash it everything really good with soapy water.
1) Water temps - Dependent on room temps. As I've said before you need to keep your room under 78 degrees to keep your water under 68 degrees.
I designed my own timer a few years ago. I went to Radio Shack and bought a timer IC chip, board and parts. It was cool how everything worked. I used a variable resistor to control the capacitor voltage. As the cap's voltage climbed it would eventually reach 5 volts and switch the chip to on. The IC chip output was tied to a relay that switched on and off. Then I used another variable resistor to control the time the chip was on. A timer is really just a simple flip-flop circuit.Yeah I will do the tutorial and parts list thing as soon as I have tested it all, had no time for it today, and tommorrow looks busy too.
Might even do a kit for those who want to build their own but are scared of the circuit board makeing process, or soldering on the little surface mount inverter. (I use reflow solder and a hot air gun from my garage
Good for you bro! Stick with it and don't give up. Education is one of the most important aspects of life (as you already know). I'm proud of you bro and glad to have you as a StinkBuddy!
Thanks Bro! That's why I keep going. I know there are some people that appreciate the amount of time I've spent. I get emails from people all the time thanking me. There are some people that are trying to keep their father, mother, husband or wife alive. That's who this thread is for.
