Well atleast its not cloud bound:
Everything is dead, because the Company has a new model.

Growing things is so dependent on cloud providers. /s
Most plants are dependent on cloud providers, it’s why drought is such an issue in deserts.

It was a joke about cloud-based growrooms: https://www.fridgegrow.com/
If your router decides to give up, your cannabis will be dead. At least your indoor grow…

Yeah.
You probably should include a legal disclaimer.
It would be “an [easy-to-use D.I.Y. growth] controller firmware”, but ‘firmware’ isn’t a countable so doesn’t need that article.
It’s neat how that’s two mistakes in one letter.
So the “a” at the beginning can be dropped?
Sounds amazing. What is the aproximate cost for all the parts needed?

Thx!
I think , depending on your source, it will be around 30-40 Euro. In the Release for the PCB i added a BOM: https://git.la10cy.net/DeltaLima/CanGrow/releases/tag/pcb_v0.6.1
Most of the stuff needed, like Resistors, Capacitors, Transistors, MOSFETs and so on, will be not very expensive and might be already in your sortiment, if you do electronics already.
Most expensive stuff are the PCB itself (~3€/pc) , the sensors (BME280 ~4€), the ESP8266 D1 (~4€), and XT60 Connector (~4€) :)
Thanks y’all
The author gave me the estimate 30-40 Euro.
