Hello peoples I have ran into a bit of an issue with my pulse. As of just recently it has started reading higher temps then it should have been so I have been in contact with @okPeet (Who has been extremely helpful and believes he can solve the issue and I 100% have faith in that) to try and resolve the issue. We had discussed the possibility of heat build up from the vents being blocked so with that in mind I started experimenting with the pulse to see if I could remedy the issue. In the process I stumbled on what I think is the cause of my pulses issue ( I would like to say just cause I am having this problem doesn't mean everyone is)

"Hey Peter hope your weekend is going well. So I have good news / Bad news. I am pretty sure I know whats going on with the my pulse. (That's the good news) Here's the bad news I believe the mother board is heating up as well as the vents to vent the heat from building up aren't enough to do compensate for the added heat. So as the temps in the surrounding environment go up my pulse becomes more and more out on it's measurements. I tried taking the back off the pulse letting it sit then turned it on and checked what it read. It was spot on in agreement with the other hydrometer in my grow room. I also took lazer thermometer readings of the pulses mother board just before I turned it on and after a few mins of running. The longer the pulse ran the more it was off reading the temps as higher but the mother boards surface temps were the same as what the pulse read. I have pictures to show what I mean. I tried to match the pics so you can see three per testing. So the big issue is that when I had the pulse hung where I needed it the environment would be at around 76 to 77F with 55% humidity sometimes but the pulse would read as high as 84F with 40-45% humidity. Like I was saying the more direct heat on the pulse it compounds the problem. If you need any more pics let me know or want me to try anything. I will say just because I'm having this problem doesn't mean everyone is."

So this is what I sent him and he responded with I will get right on it and that he has a idea what might be causing it. That kind of service that quick is extremely nice and as I mentioned I have 100% faith the issue will be resolved. I will include the pics of the readings I took. I will update as soon as the issue is resolved.

Hey Clix - I just pushed some new code to address this. It seems to have helped things here on my end, want to check how things are looking w/ you

Hi @okPeet

I have just read this thread start to finish..... very interesting thread and a very interesting product.

For some time now I have been monitoring my controlled grow room, using a system with up to 9 sensors measuring Temp & Rh (producing 1min interval charting), some home built switching controllers adjust Temp & Rh automatically via humidifier, de-humidifier and a evolution fan controller, (example 10 hour chart below)...... but up to now, without calculating or adjusting for the effect of VPD.

VPD.... True to say I knew a little about it, but not nearly enough, and it has slipped of my radar (until now).... You have definitely got my attention.

This seems the next logical step to me, being able to fine tune the grow room after calculating the effect of VPD.... So, I am Very Interested !

I have been looking on the Website to order, and have a couple of questions:-

Can additional sensors/setups be pre-ordered with the unit?
Can I pre-order for a UK shipment ?
What would be the expected UK shipment date?
Do we have a Coupon Code for AN members ?

I wish to purchase a full system, I am also happy to complete a documented trial with it, and post a full journal, with detail - as per some of previous grows (please take a look at some of my journals)

Thanks.
Frogster

I just watered my last two plants in my grow tent that are under the prism lighting science 315w cmh light both in super soil one photo plant and my last auto of this grow that got tossed in to 12/12 for like a week

this will be there last watering I plan to chop them done after memorial day that will give the soil a bit of time to dry out and give me time to decide what seeds I want to grow next and to get my stuff ready for my next grow

the auto plant is still tossing out a few white hairs and fox tailing and I can already tell is going to be all kinds of fluffy and not my top choice

but its ok its going to get chopped anyway it will be my "sure smoke as much as you like bud" lol my whole family smokes to dam much and now they all expect me to supply them like I am growing a warehouse full of buds but I keep the good stash for myself and my mom only we get to smoke the cream of the crop

I already have a batch of super soil that is ready I am just not sure if a have any potting soil for the top have of the pots

the last auto
1x gorillagasm auto from top shelf elite in day [HASHTAG]#102[/HASHTAG] from sprout today

the photo plant
1x lemon tooth photo period feminized from B-S-B genetics in day [HASHTAG]#58[/HASHTAG] of flower

man I got to say I am extremely happy with these 315w cmh lights I plan to make them my full time lights I have saved a good amount on my electric bill and still managed to grow so very dank bud

I want to do the same as I did in this grow 4 autos in the tent and one photo plant in the closet for my next grow

p.s. hope everyone has a safe memorial day and god bless America and those who fought for it

Glad you find what we're doing interesting!
1. The unit is self contained, sensor and all, order as many as you need. PM me for more info about buying. Later down the road we'll be adding additional sensors.
2. You definitely can. We've already shipped some prototype units to the UK, and have a few other UK preorders.
3. We are going to have product start shipping in June. UK would probably be late June / early July.
4. PM me and i'll set you up!

Garden is growing well. I've managed to fiind a way to control the humidity better. Hoping the damage isn't already done. My ph started to dip but I caught it early so I'm hoping I can fix fairly easy. If you look to the right in my pics you can see the pulse in it's new home. Girls in the back are about 5 foot tall.

my first prism lighting science 315w cmh grow if officially over

I harvested my last auto and my photo plant and it was just in time I started to see a few yellow bananas on my photo plant I think it was from being moved to the grow tent it is not light proof for shit which is why I only use my tent for autos glad i caught it in time well at least I hope so

the last auto
1x gorillagasm auto from top shelf elite in day [HASHTAG]#106[/HASHTAG] from sprout

the photo plant
1x lemon tooth photo period feminized from B-S-B genetics in day [HASHTAG]#62[/HASHTAG] of flower

I trimmed up one of the plants that I took down last week it had been drying for 8 days already but think it still needed a few days but I trimmed it up anyway but left the lids off the jars for now and the other plant that was harvested last week I moved to the tent to dry out a bit more and put the 2 plants I chopped today in my closet to dry since I get better temps and rh in my closet

I placed a order yesterday for a bag of potting soil and some more fabric pots to be delivered after I receive them I will start my next grow so in about a week or so

big thanks to pulse and the pulse nano for helping me understand proper grow room environment in real time

What'd you do to control the humidity better? Those are some huge plants!!!

Hey Now!!
Well as I am sure you folks don't know as I have been less than comunicative lately my gardens have been down for a few weeks while I clean and reset my goals for the next grows and all the testing I need to accomplish. It's a mixed blessing I'm finding out. I get really cool things to play with AND I want / need to do a good job showing what they can do. Add to the fact that I had mite and fungus gnat problems!
I am doing a reboot of the garden so to speak. So why the true confessions in the Pulse thread... Two things. One I am counting on the pulse Nanos to guide me in setting up the environments in my garden room and tents. I know my faith in them will be rewarded. Two, since my gardens are down at the moment I thought I would show you my alternative use for one of my nanos!! I'll need to use tapatalk to post a picture.
