I started working on an upgrade camera lens for the robotic arm and also the regular security cameras. These lens are very cheap and easy to buy online. They also give you 3 separate sizes for different options.
Measuring the new lens.
I got a varaity of colors.
Checking the UV coating.
The first mount ended up being for the 3D printer which broke constantly.
This was the first version mounted for the robotic arm. It slipped a bit and a custom mount was later built.
I was vegging out some Amnesia Haze seed and clones for testing purposes. They grew amazingly fast in the tent and I ended up giving them away to a lucky grower.
Vegging out the trees.
In the process of opening up the last plant I split it down the middle. I decided to use cloth string to tie a splint to bring it together.
The split tree.

Discovered I had a green caterpillars going on in the grow that got out of hand fast. They guys eat and grow faster then any other critter I’ve delt with thus far.
This spray took care of them in no time flat.
Hungry bastards
The biggest limiting factor has been the enclosures for the devices. There haven’t been any. Todate there were all boxes or prototypes that needed and upgrade. A 3D printer was purchased from Amazon to be able to customize and buildout the enclosures. By far building out a 3D printer is a highlight I recommend anyone try once.

The converted mixer frame into a 3D Printer Bench.
Test printing a cube
A spool feeder was one of the first parts I was advised to build.
Due to space issues and just wanting the beast out of the living area, I broke down the mixer and rebuilt it as a maker bench a few weeks later.
It was time to tear it down. It went quickly and into easy to manage pieces.
Broken casters were a bad design flaw. I needed to use larger ones with more weight load.
I started some clones early October and noticed an issue that seems to occur. If I mix nutrients by hand without gloves then touch a cube mold grows. It seems to happen every time I make this mistake and a reminder to always wear and change gloves when handling the clones.
