Lion's automated aeroponic garden pilot

the girls are recovering well…

the ppm was adjust to ±750 and the PH 5.8~6.1.

my ph/ppm meter has back to life, but when testing with other ph meter, they have a diference of 0.10 ±, isnt a big problem, but create the feeling of uncontrol… but i will get over it.

here some pictures about the ladies… the oldest in flowering and that one had passed 2 days without water and lost almost 3/4 of your branchs get back to growing…






and the newest in flowering start looking a flowering plant…


i will made some changes in the grow for more space and planning to flip the last one has last in vega… she are really beatifull and looking healthy too.


we still can see the tricomes only with the microscopy … i guess in this week, when the air conditioner was installed and i can put the temps on ± 68Fº (last days the temp is around 84Fº … now with some changes on grow, its get down to 77Fº) , they will show more resination…(i hope), and i’m will add that Floralicious in the solution…

i still using only FloraMicro, FloraGrow, FloraBloom and CaliMagic in the solution. (stop with the rapid start because its on the end and i will need for the beans what i popping)

i need to understand more about the nutrients and the plant needs in the stages of life to make the nutes addon with more conscience.

That pic kind of ‘grossed me out’ too, especially when I thought about how much of that I smoked years ago…

JoeCrowe has the ‘big gun’ if you really want to see what’s going on… Check out his photos from a year ago… :woozy_face:

Cheers

First welcome to the OG community When there’s a lot of info/pictures provided by the grower in the thread it makes a world of difference…easier to provide input & advice/opinions to try and help out with the grow because you don’t have to go through the process of answering simple questions about your environment or what products you’re using…

Heey buddies!!! Time to relive this thread!

My next cycle was started… my last experience First time doing mating dance with plants was a success and now I have a lot of seeds and some experience with many varietys of strains to start my main project, the DeepGarden… an automation solution with artificial inteligence to take care of our babies automatically and I want to share the process of my pilot with you guys!

The grow is already in change… I remove the last 4 plants which is flowering to get some space to work and build the next version of my aeroponic system like you guys can see bellow:



seeds from one of my crosses :slight_smile:



I’m using buckets of 16liters and netpots of 13cm

the support to the peristaltic pumps to manage the nutrition and ph automatically… ( I printed the supports in the 3d printer)



I will use this 2 buckets of 12 liters to keep mothers in DWC (sour diesel from Seedstockers and wonder pie from green house co., both from my Spannabis trip. Planning to make f1 and giveways :crazy_face: )


the babies for the next cycle:
1 Sour Diesel from Seedstockers
1 Wonder Pie from Green House Co.
3 Cream de la chem from @BasementBeans ( i guess), but 2 looks locked… I will leave more days to see whats happen but I am not feeling much confident. I growed 2 of them last cycle and I loved the result… I made a bubble hash with them and the result was fantastic <3
2 Sour Diesel x Bubblegun auto … they looks locked too :confused:
1 Crocket Tangie from @Oldjoints
3 Giraffe Punch from @Budderton which already popped with a success rate of 100% :smiley: in the towel paper and I will put 4 seeds of my Naughty Banana Gold to germinate and close the spots for the next cycle.


and here is the grow, almost done… I will go out to buy the stuff what is missing :slight_smile:

Keep it growing OG !!
HUGS!

So quick question; is you goal to specifically design an automated aero setup or just have an automated grow?
If you only want your grow to be automated, you should check out Hempy buckets. You can automate those with a drip system or whatever is easiest.

Good luck!

Hey Bud, thanks for taking a time to visit my thread.

Brother, I need to confesso, i never shaked my nutrients bottle before… Just yesterday Reading some catalogs what I bring from Barcelona then I base the Pattern in almost ALL of the branda telling to shake the bottle before the use. I already started thinking about How I will solve It, but for the pilot, I Will shake It manually

Hi Lion! Found your automation thread :grin:
Looking good man. I saw something similar at Spannabis with bottles and pumps etc. Did you see that version too?

Great DIY attitude! Looking forward to see updates of this show!
