Hi
This looks great. I install and test it a bit. How does the Water consumption feed works. Is this like I can add a value if the pumpe provides water to it?
Is there documentation about all this sensors?
it calculates the water sensor drop and multiplies it with pot size and water holding capacity.
Assuming you have a pot with 4L soil. Soil normaly has a water holding capacity of 50 or 55%.
So the pot can hold 2L of water total. When the sensor drops from 100% to 50% you’ve lost 1L of water.
I had no time for a documentation yet. Still gathering ideas.
At the moment i am planning a crop stearing feature where you can dynamically create grow plans in an kind of line graph card (or advance the current line graph) that translates to blueprints which can than be assigned to plants or cycles. Those adjust the thresholds of the sensors along the grow, which than could control fans, lights and water pumps in your individual system. Like a “8 weeks low fertilizer” plan or “10 weeks with sunrise” stuff like that.
@dingausmwald Thank you for your awesome project!
While testing, I noticed a few minor issues and came up with some ideas for potential improvements.
I’d love to contribute to the ongoing development. I’ve already set up a development environment and cloned the repository locally. Are there any outstanding updates that haven’t been pushed yet?
What’s the best way to get in touch with you for collaboration?
thank you. Wrote you a message. Otherwise github issues, discussions etc are open. This is the most up to date version. I was planing to go on working on the project the next weeks.
this is really awesome
i’ve switched from mycodo to home assistant for my grows 2 years ago. but i had really missed is a suite like this.
also if you search for possible features https://www.growlink.ag is state of the Art right now. (if you not already know them). they also had a great interview with “wethegrowers”
i had my HA grow setup somewhat like this lately before moving, but needs an overhaul anyway. so perfect timing
thanks for the input. Actually, i did hear about growlink, but never looked into. I looked around when i started my own thing years back.
I just watched some youtubes a year old on their channel und yea well, looks nice. The crop steering assistant is just what i was planing. The copilot stuff is great too, something i planned for far future.
This suite is mainly to organise your plants, not tanks or devices.
I try to not invent everything from scratch. Home assistant mainly manages devices well and since they dont come and go like plants its easy to do it with plain home assistant magic. My initial idea was to bring some convenience to plant management, not having to create a ton of helpers for every plant there is coming.
I know the fluid level background card. Its a bit bold for my liking.
its still not finished, but i can see nearly the full picture
It mainly consists of custom button cards, a grafana graph, camera streams, a history and a forked activity manager and card
in forked tabbed cards
circle sensor cards i forked
a slim slider combo card i created
and this neat bubble card that opens as menue for every button on the right side.
There i have the levels of my fertilizer in the custom button cards (for my dosing pumps) in circle cards.
Since this is all in a grid layout, it folds nicely for tablet and mobile phones.
The plant suite will take place in the middle tabbed card with the stream and graph, a mix of the position and list card i think. The actual flower card will open in the bubble card popup like a more info for a plant.
I also created some hardware, like a ndvi camera, a motorized lighting system, a motorized air vent, a dosing and sensor system. But maybe this is a flex for another time
Hi guys, i’m the founder of a small startup running out of the UK. We’ve recently made our cannabis grow sensor compatible with HA. It’s basically a fully calibrated all in one sensor packed with loads of advanced sensors like PAR, PPFD, Leaf temp, Leaf VPD, CO2, pwEC, VWC as well as all the usual stuff like Temp, Humidity, VPD.
Just wanted to mention it as we are pushing for an open system thats compatible with as many products as possible and HA was top of our list to link up with. Thought it could interest some of you.
Anyway, any questions on that let me know. Or for more info growsensor.co
