Indoor 1989.5 Daletas ’17 dmg: Data Collection

Getting an idea of the growing environment with meters is an unbiased method for double checking to make sure all environmental factors are being maximized for plant production.

The small round black tubing is CO2 delivery tubing and the numerous flat black “lines” are the drip irrigation.

In addition, a quick and “point in time” soil moisture meter is also installed. The plan is to also use a multi-sensor digital moisture meter, but this is just a good way to get a quick reading from different points in the structure to help ensure consistency.

Also, there is a thermometer to see what the temperature is at soil and plant heights to help determine if stratification is occurring despite the use of multiple fans. Based on the current reading the mixing of air is going to plan.
