Hydroponics Gardens

Release status: experimental [box doku]

Description Growing plants in water, indoors
Author(s)  tiefpunkt

We have a small hydroponic garden in our space, currently consisting of one deep water culture box with 4 plants.

Plants

There are currently 4 plants:

  • Bell pepper
  • Mini cucumber
  • Zucchini
  • Jalapeño chilli

All 4 were not grown from seeds, but bought when they were ~10-15cm tall, and replanted from soil to hydroton.

Hydroponic system

The plants are set in a deep water culture, build from a 22l IKEA Samla box. We are using the black version to discourage algae growth. The box is completely filled with water (and some nutrition solution). For air supply, it has a 30cm air stone on the bottom, which is supplied by a 165 l/h air pump. We are using 8cm net cups for the plants.

Lights

The plants are under a 40W CFL daylight lamp, which is on a timer to be lit for 12 hours a day.

Sensors

There are currently 3 sensors in and around the system, monitoring 4 values:

  • Outside temperature (Sensor: DHT22)
  • Water temperature (Sensor: DS18B20)
  • Humidity (Sensor: DHT22)
  • Water level (Sensor: HC-SR04)

Values from these sensors are posted to MQTT (MuMaBus), and then pushed to our ThingStore [1].

In addition, there is a webcam in front of the plants: http://data.tiefpunkt.com/hydroponics/image.jpg
