• Improve Electrical Setup

  Tanguy • 01/23/2025 at 20:53 • 0 comments

  Initially, I only planned to have a pump connected to a Wi-Fi outlet for this setup.
  Over time, though, I’ve added two USB UV LEDs, a second pump for brassing, and, most recently, an oxygenator. As a result, the wiring has become quite messy :
  

  
  It’s time to upgrade this, with a 4-relay Wi-Fi board and some 3D-printed casings !
  

• Oxygen and root moisture Issues

  Tanguy • 01/13/2025 at 15:31 • 3 comments

  I have a moisture problem. The roots that are completely submerged are dying.
  The plants still look okay, but I think this will become a problem in the future.

  I have read that this could be due to root asphyxiation if the water is not sufficiently oxygenated.
  I will install this aquarium oxygenator in the water tank to try to fix it.

• 3D-Printed Plant Bucket

  Tanguy • 11/04/2024 at 07:55 • 0 comments

  I made in 3D new plant bucket, to use coconut husk substrate instead of foam
  
  

• Salad salling out

  Tanguy • 10/10/2024 at 08:46 • 0 comments

  The more time passes, the less confident I am that the small foam cubes are a good idea. It seems like the roots can't properly 'grip' them, and the plants are slowly falling out of the bucket over time.

• First grow

  First grow, in the small plastic bucket with foam cubes.
  

• Salad seeds & fertilizer

  Tanguy • 10/02/2024 at 21:33 • 0 comments

  To start, I got some salad seeds of different kinds and a liquid fertilizer to mix with the water.

• Make a frame

  Tanguy • 10/02/2024 at 21:30 • 0 comments

  I add some wood to make a frame so I can place all the pipes as I want.
