First grow: Pineapple Glue auto

Day 7: The girls are doing ok by the looks. I've had trouble with humidity so I've been trying to keep the grow box hotter and more airflow. I decided to move the lights up a bit and put them on 100% to increase heat generation, and it definately helped a little. Today I worked on my fan controller with temp probes. Going to stick a probe near the top, near the plants and in the soil (after waterproofing). PC outside the box will run a webcam and monitor temperatures and set fan speeds using the controller (an Arduino board from my spare parts bin). I tested the new server fans and they are fucking grunty. Far too loud at max grunt, I expect to be using them around 20%. One will replace the current piddly exhaust fan (which will move inside the box to circulate air) and one instead of an oscillating fan. I intend to pulse the fan after some time duration. Day 8: Still going great by the looks. Alice is just about to sprout the second set of cannabis leaves. Belinda is still a little behind but no worries, she's got plenty of time to shine! Today I fitted the new grunty exhaust fan and put a temperature probe at plant level. Temp sensor and fan control are done using an Arduino which talks to the "grow PC" which is connected to wireless, so I can now monitor temps and control fan speed from the comfort of my lounge PC. I also set up an old PS Eye camera I had as a webcam. I still have to install and wire one more fan at plant level. Day 9: First set of true leaves got bigger, Alice looks like her next set is about to arrive. Soil is finally looking dry but it's still a bit moist under the surface, perhaps tomorrow they may be ready for water. Added another 120mm fan inside the box, for air circulation at plant height. Day 10: Today I topped up the pots with compost, and gave them 50ml water each with 1:100 bokachi juice. They look good to me so far. Belinda has now caught up with Alice as far as leaf size is concerned. I figured out how to make timelapses with my webcam so stay tuned for a preview tomorrow :)
