Krogers, Grow Box, CCI
Tuesday, February 24, 2009, 06:00 PM
Went to Krogers and Trader Joe's then went in search of an Earth Box. Didn't have them at Garden Supply or at Family Garden on 55. I researched them some more and found a clone at the Garden Patch for half the price, $29 vs $59 and if you order 3 they knock money off the shipping so I ordered 3 for $105. Found a nice wiki of a university, USC, that covers the Fireball V90 router they bought. It covers stepper motor sources, specs, wiring and driver boards. It seems I can save much by buying the base and going elsewhere for motors and drivers.
Regarding the Earth Box, I learned of it in Circuit Cellar. A guy fixtured his grow box to detect that it needed water and added solenoid drivers to give it water. All this is monitored by a wireless handheld controller.
