DeltaLima has developed a Grow Controller and firmware with WebUI and published it under the MIT license.
Features
- Gather Values from sensors
- Temperature
- Humidity
- Soilmoisture
- Time based (ntp) Light control
- Smooth Fade in and fade out configurable
- Control of two Fans
- FAN1 is controlled by PWM supply Voltage
- FAN2 is controlled by PWM 4 Pin Fan header
- Simple watering control
- 3 modes for water plan
- By soilmoisture value
- by time (every n days, different interval for vegetation and bloom phase)
- both combined
- Define the different phases of your grow
- Set amount of days for vegetation and bloom phase.
- After bloom phase CanGrow enters harvest mode by its own, which means the light and watering system gets disabled
- Maintenance Mode
- When using LED PWM, you can activate Maintenance Mode, which dimms the light. (at night it will turn on when enabling maintenance mode)
- ESP32Cam integration on the Dashboard
- Support for SSD1306 128x64 I2C OLED display
- rotates through three different screens
- Get measured values as json
GET /api/sensors
Supported Sensors
- Analog capacitive soilmoisture
- I2C Chirp (https://wemakethings.net/chirp/)
- Soilmoisture
- Temperature
- I2C BME280
- Temperature
- Humidity
- I2C SHT31
- Temperature
- Humidity
- Analog water level indicator
- Builtin on CanGrow PCB
- simple voltage divider, check out https://deltalima.org/blog/index.ph...e-step-water-level-indicator-for-arduino-esp/
You probably should include a legal disclaimer.
if using this in an area where cannabis growing is illegal, this is intended for growing oregano. Happy growing!
A easy to use DIY grow controller firmware (for cannabis).
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?
The author gave me the estimate 30-40 Euro.

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_v0.6.1Most 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

Well atleast its not cloud bound:
Everything is dead, because the Company has a new model.
@Churbleyimyam
Growing things is so dependent on cloud providers. /sMost plants are dependent on cloud providers, it’s why drought is such an issue in deserts.
@abeorch@friendica.ginestes.es
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…
@frisbeedude
Yeah.
