Arduino - GR33NT0Y v1.0

Potastica · Apr 27, 2019

Well let start with I'm by far a good programmer and not licensed for electrical, but have worked in both fields for many years and picked up a few things over that time that has helped me with this project.
I wanted to setup my spare room to be able to grow enough for myself plus a little extra in case friends or family pop by too...where I live we can grow 4 plants indoor.
So after a bunch of trying things and doing a bunch of tests I have gotten this far.
I built a large box and split it in to 4 sections. Each section can be controlled individually and cut off from the others. (pic 1)
Wired up some 120vac plugs to relay boards that I did a little swap of relays to 1 of them because they run 2amps and I needed 3.75-4amps. (pic 2)
Started programming the Arduino...knew a little HTML, C++ Basic and old school stuff...so its been a bit of a learning curve too...lol
I'll post code I used in next post, but I'm in process of having SD card implemented to read values from *.txt file and save readings and so on. Right now I just set the times I want in the code and write it to mega so if I want to change I have to connect to PC and re-write...been a pain when theres a bug to fix...lol
I also made up and connected 8 temperature probes...2 for each box...1 water and 1 plants canopy height.
More to come soon...lol

Now remember I'm no pro...just learning parts as I need them...lol
And a bunch of things are edited out because I haven't figured them out properly yet or just turned it off or for some reason.

Code:

//========================================================================================================================================
//  USER SETTINGS FOR TIMERS (4 X RELAYS)
//  Use "army" time for settings...minus the "0"...example...09:00 (9am) = 9 as value....0 = Midnight/12:00am
//  00 to 23.
//  Cannot do pm to am unless you reverse digitalRead(s) & digitalWrites for that Timer/Relay # and reverse times
//  for ON/OFF, due to now setting an OFF Run Time instead of ON Run Time.

Just shut all lights and pumps off for a minute to grab a few quick pics of each section/box.
Pics:
1...Start off 4 clones...veg 32 days. (Keep the best 2 for next box.)
2...Veg still for another 32 days....64 total. (Same amount of time needed for flowering)
3...Flowering cycle starts...32 days of 64. (Genetics say 60-65 so I'm using 64 as the closest even value)
4...Final 32 days of flower cycle...then cut down.

So basically if I used say seeds that took 60 days then I would be using 30 day intervals...see its simple...lol
Just noticed you can see the temp sensors in these pics...well top ones...other goes under black cover in to the tote/water res.
