This is one of the most amazing uses of the Arduino I've ever seen! It took me 20 hours to make a light, temp, and soil moisture sensor alone. Great job! I would love to see more videos like this one for sure!
Absolutely amazing! Very professional! I have started a 16 by 50 ft greenhouse and have automated a few things, but will never be able to this much. Wish you lived next door so I could learn more from you! Great job!
Awesome job! And the idea with the fan-less air circulation tube for the sensors is priceless. As much as I hate seen' Arduino used for process control - it does the job, and that's even not the point. The job on the greenhouse itself is fantastic!
I made a similar green house control system years ago with the 68hc11F1, LCD display, 2 subsystems; both hysteresis based; 1. soil moisture sensor and inductor controlled water valve(with a hi/lo pair of trigger points, 2. cadmium sulfide cell light sensor and h-bridge driven shades for growing bed as output transducer(also with hi/lo trigger points). Both of these systems, i used the Analog Devices 654 V/F converter with schmidt trigger inputs. I have since rethought this system for today.
Like the passive airflow temperature tube. Smart idea, solves a lot of problems regarding monitoring location, and accurate temperature monitoring. Will see if it works with my existing temperature sensors and if it improves the battery life by protecting the device from over heating.
Very nice, just what I've been looking to build on a smaller scale indoors. Do you have code and instructions that you are willing to share? Also I see that this is 2 years old, have you tried replacing your Arduino with a Pi or Beaglebone for more computing horse power?
Probably the coolest thing ive ever seen. I like the way you put in the temp sensor. Is the clock difficult to adjust to the changing daylight? Do you use this in winter?
Hi, really colossal project. Congratulate . I'd like also anologous apparatus construct. It is possible ask for instruction on construction, schema and codes ? Thank you for early reply. Martin
Love your greenhouse and it's an inspiration to look at. I'm starting off with copying the pipe solution for your temp sensor for my own DHT22. Do you think it matters what proportions the black and white part is?
APC220 are expensive. You can do virtually the same thing with the NRF2L01 for about $5 or less depending on where you get it. They have extended range versions that go up to 1KM. Only thing is, the extended range NRF24L01 needs 3.3v at a higher current than the Arduino's 3v3 regulator can supply.
ISP connect I'm not able to respond via email, so I will do so here. You can obtain cheap NRF24L01 modules from online stores, including Amazon. You may use a search engine to find stores that ship internationally. Many of them are manufactured in China, so you may be able to find a store that ships from there.
Nice greenhouse. Your solution for the air-circulation problem is pretty smart. Are you still operating it in this state, or did you make changes/had to shut it down?
This is blowing my mind, well played! Have you calculated the total component cost of this build? I'm super-interested in doing something like this. It was most magnanimous of you to provide the source code. I'd be interested in a cost estimate to build this sans plants, if that isn't a big pain in the butt.
This is nothing short of amazing! My dad and I are planning out a greenhouse and I think it would be worth it to show my dad this. If you don't mind me asking, how does it fair in winter conditions?
Apparently the code is posted below. I noticed as I was replying to your comment. I'd love to look through the code as well and also know the hardware for opening/closing the louver!
at the end of the video, could you please tell me what program do you use to view the sensor readings and graphs? it looks really nice. thanks in advance
Sweet would you like to build one for a 200 or 300 foot around green house? co2 coming from 5 or 6 placeis? the green house will feed 30 people or 36 people. Thanks.
Hi there! I am really interested in your system, do you have some blog or personal site where you can share your experience? I am from Ukraine and will be really happy to make same system here. I am thinking about hydrophonics greenhouse as well. Thank you and will be waiting for response from you.
Nice job! I am building my first greenhouse (for starting plants), converting an old neo- angle shower turned on it's side (about 54 cubic feet). I want to build a Arduino environment control, with sensors for temperature, light and humidity with controls for a heat source, vent fan, grow light and drip system. All reporting by wifi. Because of the size of this, I will require lights and fans to run on 120V AC. This is where I am stuck in the research because most builders are just using low volt lights and PC fans. Can you provide any links to tutorials/instructables for this scale of project?
+Owen G You should look into relays. You can use a very small signal from the Arduino to turn on a full power 120v appliance. Amazon "SainSmart 8-Channel Relay Module". That's what you will need. It just takes a signal from the arduino, but uses full 120v to run whatever. Think of it as a simple light switch in the house to turn on a light, but instead of a light switch, its turning on and off via a small 5v signal from the arduino. Hope this helps.
The black and white pipes to create airflow is genius. Great job on the project!

Well done, man. Nothing overly complicated. Nice, well organized. Love the vacuum on the heat sensor. Great Idea. So clean...
thanks for the 'sensor in a tube' tip.
compliments for you're nice clean setup.
I have a basil plant on my window sill. I water it once a day with a cup.

Very very nice job. Would look great in a greenhouse with Aquaponics and vertical growing plants :)
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr8 engineering job. Your plants have to love you
Very nice, just what I've been looking to build on a smaller scale indoors. Do you have code and instructions that you are willing to share? Also I see that this is 2 years old, have you tried replacing your Arduino with a Pi or Beaglebone for more computing horse power?
Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant, you my friend are a Genius!
This is frickin insane! How much time do you have invested in this?
do you have a video showing how to put the system together? I would love to have it made for my Greenhouse too. Awesome work!!!!
wow.. I was looking on how to make a little greenhouse but this is awesome.. great work man
Probably the coolest thing ive ever seen. I like the way you put in the temp sensor. Is the clock difficult to adjust to the changing daylight? Do you use this in winter?
THis is absolutely the legittest greenhouse on the block.
Simply great. Thx for the inspiration. Stuff with the hunidity and temp sensor, simply effective.
Well done sir. I also live in northern Alberta and am thinking of doing a similar project. Any chance we could connect?
I should have been doing this kind off stuff in junior high. Where did i go so wrong. I want a do over on the last decade.
Hi, really colossal project. Congratulate .
I'd like also anologous apparatus construct. It is possible ask for instruction on construction, schema and codes ?
Thank you for early reply. Martin
Super nice setup I bet that was a complicated sketch. I would say I'ts time to start selling them online.
Those Fr's look kinda clean for a ruffneck.

Dat Cable Management tho. Tis a beaut.
Wow really clean system! nice work, and super organized!
Very very nice! I'd like some grow results videos now!!!! You think about doing any soil moisture/wetness monitoring for watering cycles?

Hell and Damnation. That controller box is industrial quality.
looks great and ilearned something: how to install the DHT11 sensor
Hi brad, I was wondering, any tips on caring for nepenthes miranda?
Nice greenhouse. Your solution for the air-circulation problem is pretty smart.
Are you still operating it in this state, or did you make changes/had to shut it down?
this is awsome are going to market with a kit set for self sustainability?
Really smart project ! Congrats

Sounds like Brad's Greenhouse and Gardening.
Great job....
Is the code could be share with us?
I ve a got an aquaponic greenhouse project and it would be perfect.
Thanks

+Torgny Nordén I just fine the link, you re right it s down below. Thanks
That....... is awesome!!
that's great! Me and my brother want to build something similar, simpler to start with, do you have a tutorial or a blog? thanks for sharing! :)
Hi thanks for the great video.
Could you please share the code and the schematics?
at the end of the video, could you please tell me what program do you use to view the sensor readings and graphs? it looks really nice. thanks in advance
amazing job man!!! I'm working in something similar...a small version prototype....then I want to build a big production one
this thing is badass
this has been a dream of mine since i was a youngster
inspired to say the least.
This is just amazing.
The more they overthink the plumbing, the easier it is to stop up the drain. ... Scotty
Thanks man, this is a great project.
Where can I buy the code for this greenhouse? I have looked through all the comments and the website mentioned, but can't find the code anywhere.
Insane, but some codes would be welcome here :) You did a tremendous job
the code is on his website here:
www.fracsimmeters.com/specs---downloads.html
Put it in the description to save yourself some work :)
Wait, is this even legit?
Sweet would you like to build one for a 200 or 300 foot around green house? co2 coming from 5 or 6 placeis? the green house will feed 30 people or 36 people. Thanks.
what happens if you have 1000 plants and are away? Still watering with a cup or two? System is designed for scaling.
Awesome job man!. Can you provide me with the source code please?
the code is on his website here:

Hey instrumenttek. I love your setup. Are you willing to share your arduino code?
incredible
Hi there! I am really interested in your system, do you have some blog or personal site where you can share your experience? I am from Ukraine and will be really happy to make same system here. I am thinking about hydrophonics greenhouse as well.
Thank you and will be waiting for response from you.
Where do You write the set values for temperature of the louver position that You change with the switch? EEPROM?
fancy hooch house
The code is no longer available in the site, as the video says at 0:11. :(
nice work lad
You are a Genius
Nice Job.
The expenses, how much is it?
Very nice.
Much electronics for little green
awesome....
Nice!
everyone should build it and work in greenhouses than playing farmvile
Superb
how do you conect from your laptop in your house to the greenhouse, when watching data in your pc.
Its using an apc 220 wireless module. They are available on ebay
badass
What's with all these people that think he should just give them his source code?
People who think he should give them his source code.

Super
Great job! :-)
How long can arduino work?
WOW!!!
Is this something you are willing to share (code and/or diagrams) via github or sourceforge or arduino.cc?
WOW
Hi, where get source code ?
the code is on his website here:
www.fracsimmeters.com/specs---downloads.html
wow
Please provide a code
Please share the code :D
very nice setup. but so over engineered. love it.
holy shit, thats a hell of a complication for tomatoes son! I grow plenty of them with rain and sun and dirt.
