Overview

Not yet documented.

Why I chose it

Chosen so fertilizer dosing is identical every day and independent of whether anyone is home. That is a variable removed rather than managed.

What I've learned

  • Automated daily dosing removes one of the largest sources of day-to-day variation when trying to attribute a change to lighting.
  • The doser reports its own state, so delivered volume is logged rather than assumed.

Installation

Not yet documented.

Configuration

  • Two channels, dosing daily
  • Read over its local API
  • Dosing 2Hr Aquarist APT

Future upgrade considerations

  • Logging dose volume as a time series alongside water chemistry.
