Thanks for all the comments and support. Here's a bonus unlisted video just for you all: czcams.com/video/JVYh4hm-wJ4/video.html
Can you share them with me ?are they for sale?
They're currently only being grown for research purposes.
dude, I have questions. I have rasberry pi and made a large hydroponic and greenhouse, 8x8 meters. Where did you get all the sensors? Is this all open source that I can use these? I am just starting up and had a lot of failures on the way including getting very sick. I am hoping to get things working.
Check out the video description for a detailed article that should answer all your questions.
Hey Kyle have you had issues with your pi and timing? I have heard people saying that arduino keeps timing better than the pi because of the I/o and was wondering your take?
dude, the effort that went into this video is absolutely nuts. I'm blown away. sending this to all the other EEs in my program lol
Was this project inspired by hydrobot? The water flow design is exactly the same. And the sensory array is the same.
@@jameskelmenson1927 I never heard of hydrobot.
@@jameskelmenson1927 no they were probably inspired by him he's been doing since way before them
he has extraordinary complete 360 perspective implementation power way beyond hydrobot
You have multiple skills and talents ranging from mechanical engineering to electrical engineering, to 3d printing, smart agriculture, programming, testing and calibration. I can hardly believe that you can do this all alone. Amazing.
It is humbling to be sure but don't forget, all of these skills in detail are available for study on the web. If you are strong enough in any area you can pick up the other skills just by doing. People like Kyle make this possible by sharing the kind of detail he does. That's what blows me away. Anyway, Thanks Kyle! Amazing!
Learning all these skills in regular public school would take like 20 years.
not to mention the perfect choice of beat while 3D printing
Not to forget editing skills
@@_Not_Retarded you don't need school to learn any of this. You do however need to be self driven and stop consuming entertainment with all of your free time. Reading books, watching videos like these and building things yourself goes a long way. Its a liberating experience. You're holding yourself back
Hi Kyle! This is Rogério S. Pedroso, from the city of Brusque, Santa Catarina, Brazil. Stopping by to thank you for sharing this beautiful automated hydroponics project. Congratulations for the initiative. I wish you much success in your life.
Nobody else talking about the seamless video transition to fully grown plants at 14:10 That was amazing!!
agreed, VERY well done
So nice had to watch it twice.
The whole build process and programming was cool, but that transition was the icing on the cake. Silky smooth!!
This literally dropped my jaw wide open. Astonishing. Really. Makes me feel completely useless lol.
you're not alone, I’m with you
@@shawn6224 no definitely not
I wonder what he does for a living.lol
hahaha I am with you :D
A lot has changed since I was a kid. When I was a kid, all of this was at most, just imagination. Heck, smartphones weren't even a thing when I was a kid. I can't even begin to imagine what it's like for people who are 80-90 years old. The world of their childhood is long dead and gone. Unlike a lot of the older generation, I'm totally for automation and technology. It can really be a huge benefit to humanity, however, I also believe that the old ways of farming should remain, even if just to preserve crop variety.
I was a bit thrown off when I realized this is not a huge DIY channel but actually your first project video of this kind on this channel. Really well done!
Quite a compliment! Thank you.
This is just mind-blowing. And the 4-year long open-source coding project. This guy deserves respect. 👏
I needed this video 10 years ago when I was growing not lettuce in my closet.
This has to be THE best project of this kind. Seriously impressed with the website and the entire tutorial, music was also excellent. Thanks man
This is really amazing bro! This is pretty much a mini sized version of the hydroponic shipping containers I use to work in. The fact that you designed and programed the whole thing is crazy. Thank you so so much for sharing!
Dude. You are a legend. The description you offer on your website is absolutely stunning. Thank you for that detailed manual. Very inspiring work.
Incredible video probably the highest quality one DIY video I've ever seen on CZcams. The filming, assembly, hardware, software setup, the automation plan, the timelapses -- everything was amazing.
Very inspiring! I've previously dabbled with using RPis to monitor and regulate conditions for indoor growing, but the sophistication of this system is incredible. Thanks for sharing this.
I just ran into your channel. I have watched a allot of maker videos in my time. I have to say this was by far the most well documented video I have ran into. Thank you for all the links to everything!! Awesome Job!
Probably THE most well put together CZcams video I've seen making a complicated subject as simple to understand in as concise a way as possible. Truly appreciate the effort you put into this video brother. 💯
This is legit one of the coolest things I've ever seen.
Sweet job Kyle!! Not many projects demonstrate the final product. Kudos
Man this is literally exactly what I had dreamed of doing. I had maybe half of it figured out. But I didn't know how much I had missing until I watched your video. Thanks so much for.your work and making it publicly available
Bro. I was beyond amazed at the level of detail in your write up. I’m modeling my automated setup after yours with a different system. I can’t put into words how grateful I am for stumbling onto this video when I was researching hydroponics. We’ll done and thank you.
Kyle this is amazing!! you are such a blessing to this community with your talent. i'll try to mimick what you've made from scratch. still need to learn everything though! more power!
This video is AMAZING. The quality of the images, the whole process you strictly followed and the effort you put into this is incredible
I've known plenty of lab technicians in my faculty that would go crazy with the quality of this project.
This is great work! I am really impressed not only from the whole project as an idea and how you made it but also from all the skills that you have used. From using a hammer and a drill, understanding hydroponics and writing code for raspberry. Great job! Congratulations!
This is exactly what I was looking for, and never expected to find! Thanks so much for designing and building this with such attention to detail, and then sharing it all in such a concise and non-intimidating way. I've been researching all of the components, but expected to have to figure all of the connections and programming myself.... Yahoo!
Dude, the engineering and video production quality is awesome! Thanks for the great video
This is one of the best complete guide for fully automated hydroponic system. Thanks for sharing. I think he even made the music himself too.
Wow. Thank you for all the time taken to document and explain your project. You are an inspiration for so many people, including myself!
This one of the most amazing videos that I have ever seen. Plus, full documentation? Wowser! This system should be commercialized and controlling greenhouses with hundreds of grow stations. Thanks for the effort, amazing!
VERY impressive skills. Your editing is also absolutely perfect. I'm impressed!
Absolutely legendary! Highly impressive stuff, and fantastic content creation sir! Keep up the amazing work, and I will be checking out your full build details shortly!
Finally! The DIY "Pi-droponics" video with instructions I've been looking for! This is amazing!
Big props for using old school jungle breaks.
Plus, this is a really great build.
Keep em coming.
I watched this video in awe. Every step is innovative and so well thought out. I'm very impressed and inspired. Thanks for sharing this in such detail.
In my 10+ years watching CZcams videos, this has to be the most interesting and insanely detailed video I've ever seen. Until 2:33 I thought this is fairly straightforward, but that was just the beginning :D
Mind-blown
started off simple, started making a mental shopping list, then stopped just as quickly lol
this is exactly where I hope to be in a few months. already got some of it down, but wow to put it all together - that's an inspiration if I've ever seen one. thank you for making this
This channel needs to blow up, amazing work and clear instructions. I hope to start soon.
should be titled "how to make a salad from scratch"
"If you wish to make a salad from scratch, you must first invent the universe."
Carl Sagan
or something like that :P
How-to videos are cancer
@@_Not_Retarded you can watch memes the whole day and the global warming problem just disappears
I cut it off when he started with the electrical I ain’t building a bomb shelter for the plant 💀💀
Wow. That's an impressive skill set: Electronic, 3D printing, fabrications and agricultural.
I just started using mycodo with a sustrate humidity sensor and its incredible how well it works, great job my man!!!
I like coming home from a long days work, stack my bong, and just watch people build hydroponic stuff, its great. You certainly are a genius in my book.
You literally designed and executed what I daydream about but could never do myself. Absolutely amazing stuff here!
Same... I've had this idea for over 10 years. I'm a bit disappointed that I never took the initiative to learn all of this, but it's not too late.
Same. But I actually find it inspirational. Like maybe I can do this.
Kyle, why did you have stopped? You are such an inspiration! THIS IS YOUR TIME, the people will understand more and more how easy and important it is to grow their own food at home. PLS PLS PLS, come back, do some more videos and show the world how it is working
This is the most impressive combination of insanely niche knowledge and skill I have ever seen combined into a wonderful work of engineering and art. Wow.
Sir Kyle! Without a doubt - THE BEST video and project documentation I have ever had the pleasure of reviewing - now to catch up on all the historical
The execution of this video is really well done sir, thank you! 🙏🏽
This is the absolute pinnacle of IOT. Super cool project man. If this entire setup was a kickstarter project id back it in an instant. 👏👏👍
Thanks for the video, and for showing the results. Too many people throw up build videos, and never show it working, or not.
I am currently building a 'commercial pilot hydroniponics based smart farm' and this video has been helping me alot. thank you so much.
This is really great. The effort you put in this video its amazing would love to use this for my next project.
This is just what I was looking for ... Thanx a ton for sharing this 🙂
It's evident that a lot of time and effort went into making this video, and I truly appreciate the thorough explanations and demonstrations. A huge thank you to the creators for sharing their knowledge and expertise. This video is a valuable resource for anyone interested in hydroponics or looking to take their indoor gardening to the next level. Keep up the fantastic work!
I watched the whole and could not look away for a second... this beyond impressive! Great work man!!!
*slow clap*
Unbelievable.
Just a beautiful video, perfectly executed, with surprises along the way that just kept giving.
I can appreciate everything about it, the camera work, the editing and the incredible amount of knowledge you’re drawing from across multiple fields.
Tip of the hat from kindred spirit.
Do you plan on trying this and scaling this up to a larger scale? Love your content. I'm currently getting ready to try a few of your builds. Going to be a fun grow aeason
The video is fantastic, and the build doc is just next level. Absolutely incredible.
Have had some of this turning over in my mind, amazing to see someone do it. Can't wait to get started
Dude, you're my hydro hero! This is awesome!
I literally started laughing out of sheer amazement when you started configuring the monitoring and automation systems. I said "no fucking way" on numerous occasions. So impressive man.
Amazing level of detail. By far the best video I’ve seen of a hydroponic system.
Wow, that is exactly my kind of gardening! I got into hydroponics due to my interest in tech (3D printing, automation, arduino etc.) and gardening. That's one awesome system!
Just found this. Wow, you're an incredible engineer/botanist/chemist! Thanks for sharing your brilliance. Inspiring stuff, time lapse is awesome
Thank you. The time-lapses are my favorite parts.
This is extremely well done! 3:29 is arguably the best part.
I was looking for this comment hah
This is a phenomenal build! Thanks for sharing! I wish I had your level of understanding of the electronics and controller. Great job!👍🏻
my goodness. you sir, you are a genius. thanks so much for sharing this. can't believe how much effort you've put into all that. this is exactly what I wanted to build, and you served it to me on a silver platter. incredible. thanks again, you beautiful madman
From 4:15 to 5:12 was totally nuts!!
Just amazing, The amount of skill required for this is unreal. This system can run an entire farm !
Wow. Awesome video. Great Project. Well edited and that transition was clean. You've done something amazing here.
Incredible. Wanted to do something similar to control the light/temp/humidity of a reptile enclosure. Your video provides great info! Props
I love this, Especially the automation. I would love to learn how you do it
Hey thanks for the video!
That you've explained everything step by step, makes it much easier for someone new like me to give these things a go. Hope to see new mushroom video from you soon, I found the one you've uploaded difficult to follow (my short comings not yours) Thank you! Namaste.
Mushroom video would be awesome
This video is just nothing short of amazing. One man doing all these cool setting up and configuration.
You earned a subscriber. I love your work.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
Was waiting to find All this Valuable information and Technical Guide .Thanks! Much more to Learn on the Control Systems!
This is probably one of the most impressive videos I’ve seen from editing to just the sheer breadth of knowledge you have to put this all together. Props to you sir.
Very Clever. Futuristic Standard. Education pays dividends.
Great! Thank you for sharing your knowledge, particularly now when the world claims a review.
I only intended on watching a minute and then save for later. Watched the whole thing and now want to start studying so I can do this myself! This is truely incredible. Well done!
I’ve had in mind to do something like this and by watching your video, it gave me confidence and inspiration to build one. Thank you for this amazing content.
Unbelievable! I would think your phone would be ringing off the hook to build these for people.
It appears you've thought this through a bit. :) Very nice.
AMAZING video, dude! I'm not even in hydroponic projects and was mesmerized by this! Nice work, thanks for sharing!!!
I do very much appreciate you making this and documenting the whole thing.
Back in my day plants just grew in the ground, Bloody youngins and your tech *Shakes fist* 🤣 Joking this is amazing, got som time off over Christmas i may have a stroke atempting this
Inspiring ang beautiful!!
Really nice project and I loved the videos of the fruiting bodies growing out of the bags. Beautiful! Overall, fascinating.
Hats off dude for your dedication in making the video like this !!!
Bravo, my dude. Bravo!
Upgrade suggestion: light intensity control + notify you when a solution (e.g. ph+) needs a refill
love the time lapse at the end of the video. Very informative and helpful for hydrophonic projects.
I don’t think I would be saying anything new about how crazy amazing this is. Great video. I’ve got to see if you have any further info on the various systems you placed. Blown away!!
Great video! I notice at the end that the reservoir seems to be getting a bit murky. Did you have issues with algae growing in the open (non-dark) container?
OK MY GUY HOLY SMOKES. But seriously... this over-engineered lettuce tent is a masterpiece. As is the video. The continuous shot from planting to late stage growth was just.. oof.. brings a tear to my eye.
"Over-engineered lettuce tent".. lol
Basically my thoughts in 4 words.
So glad I found your youtube channel man! I love your work!
It's so amazing to watch the time-lapse in the end.
Signed in just to give thumbs up. Seriously impressive project!
I'm thoroughly impressed. I was convinced when it came time to plant, you'd be growing marijuana (which is legal here in Canada).
Such complexity made to look so easy. I appreciate your efforts to make such a video on awe inspiring.
Your build article is incredibly detailed. Thank you.
Hi Kyle! I have a question, i started looking this sort of content and got in love with the idea behind hidroponics, but dont really know where can i find information about the science behind it,i am a total beguiner and would love to know where i could learn abour it! Thanks (amazing video)
Incredible work. Would love to hear a 1 year later update to understand what you modified (if anything)!
Top notch production, Ive consumed hundreds of hours of hydro content and all I can say is wow, very well done!
3 thumbs way up
Really well done, thanks for taking the considerable amount of extra time to share with us.
I'm actually going to make this and let you know how it goes in a month!
See you in three weeks
update pls
How’s it going?
times up
