Could possibly use that air pump you got, as a bubbler, if you don't need it some place else? It looked like a similar size to the one I got bubbling my 80 gal of worm casting tea, works great, just tossed that fancy manifold thing into the water attached to the end of tubing the tubing.

I realized something yesterday I won't be using the auto feed for the challenge , the nutrients I use are age old organics I dont think they can be used in a tank over a week or so because they are organic., Still setting up the drain shop vac sucks literally

I'll keep you posted if I find anything similar that is cheaper. To be totally honest, I was thinking that it really wasn't worth it during my first grow bc I was more concerned with pH which stays relatively stable once set. I do, however, like the conductivity measurements more and more.

thanks FJ I think I need to get though one successful grow in the new room before I spend to much more lol

Bluelab Guardian with Connect is the one I have... its pretty pricey but I love the instant readings, and, of course, its ability to log data to your computer wirelessly ...

[oldjarhead100]

very interesting something I will put on my wish list .what is the whole name of the Gaurdian please

[farmerjim]

Totally! looking to flip that chart around in the dark harvest! I never would have thought to keep rH in the 70s but my temps have been upwards of 84

Campesino ...

Getting a bit nerdy again! Basically decided to finally pull together all the data my Guardian and SensorPush sensors have been logging...

Thanks Redwasp & oldjarhead100! You guys rule

My mom was a hell of a gardener I have a couple of pictures of one of her harvests ,Unfortunately she crossed right after I got home from the Corps, so most of what I do is from trial and error .really nice write up FJ and now when we say your name your grandfather will be remembered and honored

You go Farmerjim. Dont discount those years of watching the real farmers grow. If I could grow Like my Papa could I would be 5 times the man I am now.
