nah I like having it around just in case, with my luck I ll sell it off and something will breakill buy your outkasts
thanks bro im glad you like so far. as for the controller im going with the iponic 600 link4.this thing is badass!!! you want to have complete control of your room and have it tell u by text if something is wrong make changes from your cellphone this is the best controller on the market for taking your grow to the next level hands down! is it expensive? absolutly! is it worth it?absolutly!! this thing takes all of the guess work out of everything. check this vid out its a must see!
Now to do a little reading and catching up... 
The thing I really like about it is it eliminates all the mecanical timers in the rooms.It can control the veg and the flower rooms, lighting included.Talk about dialing in room conditions.The usb port is sweet too!Jon -
Plants look really good and that super awesome controller looks like a helluva gift to give yourself! Or... me, if you decide you don't like it, or just want to be really nice haha.
awesome! glad too have you xlr8Subbed!
lol...I cant wait to get it! maybe I can program it to serve my breakfast as well. one of the things I really like is its everything you need to have complete control in your rooms. no more add-ons like ppm sniffers and stuff like that.If you were to price out all the individual equipment you would need to do everything that that controller can do you would probably be paying alot more.I dont mind paying the big bucks for good equipment when its doable,for me its all about longterm.I dont plan to ever stop growing this beautiful plant so the better the equipment the easier it will get as I get older.Im picturing a fully automated system for my retirement years.something along the lines of all the nutes,ph up,ph down and fresh water hooked into a unit that is hooked into that controller. all you do is program the levels you want and come back in a week to change the res and defoliate! Im along way from there yet but a man can dreamHell yeah, this think can also serve breakfast to the plants, with the first lights on ....
hey UrbanGrower glad you like eh!nice journal bud, hope you dont care another canadian tagging along. Your set up looks real good bro
I've been looking at controllers for a couple of months now and am in a dilema myself...95% of all environmental controllers are rated for 15A which is a problem for me (ac and dehumidifer pull 20a together) so the only option for me is a Sentinel CHHC-4 with a 15A Sentinel power expander. I was real interested with the iponic600 ($1090 on m*n*ter g*rd*ns) but it's only rated for 15A and I couldn't find a power expander anywhere. Don't know if you knew that but just giving you a heads up bro
I know about as much about electrical as I do about brain surgery lol...so you could very well be right but im pretty sure it can be done with the iponic it say right in the video that you can run a/c dehumidifiers and heaters off of it. Im going to contact them soon and find out exactly how it all works and I will post everything I find out about it. thanks for the tip though,I would be pretty choked if it showed up and I coul"nt use it lol... +reps for that
UrbanGrower for letting me know all of this Im going to do some more research to find out exactly what I need. I ll post my findings as soon as I have some
Anything that makes life easier is a good thing i believe. If you are serious about this jon i would also look into running a cea (sealed room). It will really take your grows to the next level as far as control and security etc! Oh and hopefully yields. This was the single best decision i ever made for my grow op. After having just finished setting up my second room (which is now in a house i own) if you need and pointers i would be happy to help. But seriously it looks like you got it going on!
Yep sealing both of those rooms is something I want to do.I am building a "workshop" with hydro and water in my yard in the spring.Thats when I plan to seal everything.I dont know much about that type of room so any info you have especially about ventilation,how does the room get fresh air?what type of a/c do I need?will it be harder on my hydro bill?Do I need to upgrade my a/c? lol...see now you got me started! im like a sponge when it comes to new info
