To start things off, before getting into PCBs, sensors, and programming, I wanted to share, in more detail, some of the basic parts that I'm using in my indoor garden. Tents, lights, pumps, reservoirs, fans, flood tables - all the simple stuff that makes up the backbone of the system.

Great overview and setup! Interesting to see you favor top feed or flood & drain. Looking forward to seeing your indoor garden producing, and you harvesting crops. You are really getting dialed in.

Man you’re such an innovative guy. Always appreciative and look for your videos. I agree about the Vivosun pumps. I use one in a tote with a electric cord foot switch , giraffe hose and Dramm water wand. Too damn old to crawl under the plant canopy to saturate the plants in back. Lol That DIY fogger is legit. Where you get those bridglux strips. Those would clutch for my propagation/cloning area. They look super bright.

Thanks Tim. I got those strips off of Digikey awhile back. I'd get Gen 3's now if I were to build more shelves. Awesome little strips.

Excellent videos!! I want to do the strip light setup you have on a 4 shelf rack in my laundry room. I found the strips on DigiKey, but so many options since you posted this video. I know gen 3, but what kelvin? I found the Mean Well drivers. Pricey, since I'll need to control 4 shelves with 4 strips each, but the strips are dirt cheap. I looked through your videos, hoping you did one on this setup.

HI LG, I was wondering have you tried controlling LDD's out of the PWM on the ESP32? cheers

@LEDGardener 2 жыл бұрын

I have a buddy who does it this way. I have not tried it myself though. I think he uses a Node MCU but it’d be about the same.

Is there a reason you chose flood and drain over something like an autopot/octopot/earthbox/kratky method?

@LEDGardener 2 жыл бұрын

Not in particular. I haven't tried autopots yet. I wanted to keep the res out of the tent so I didn't do Kratky (plus I'm not sure how well fruiting veggies do in Kratky - have you tried?)

introduce me, one of the students at the university of indonesia now i am looking for a title for my final project research where i plan to raise the title of planting chilies at home using grow light fully without sunlight, if i may ask is it suitable for chili plants if grown indoors using grow light from seedling to harvest? thank you

@LEDGardener 2 жыл бұрын

Yup, chilies can be grown for their full life cycle indoors and produce hundreds of peppers.
