If I could get a top up notification that would be great. I realized I didn’t when doing my weekly water change noticed it drained fast.it was at least a gallon low. Put two and two together did some research and found it doesn’t exist. I need to check? I think it’s important enough to point out and surprised it doesn’t exist. Seems almost forgotten. It’s simple for a sophisticated machine. I don’t understand why it’s not @Todd.grobo. There’s no reason why it shouldn’t IMO. Definitely a strike for me. I can’t go anywhere for a week? Because I have to baby sit the water level? Common guys. What happened to the automated simplicity of growing at home @Stephen ?
Anyway to clarify. Can I use the fill feature to top up? Will it stop at the proper level @Todd.grobo
Is it your phone notifications maybe as I still get some and the water change, but they are only generic things though, not really anything actually to do with your grow. These are just basic and I don’t even go by them anymore.
You need to set a schedule and plan some. I do the water changes and some trimming Sunday usually as I have more time. Then from Sunday on, I know every 2 days to top off. That is it, my schedule for the week. Sunday change, fill every 2 days until the next Sunday.
Yes, use the fill every 2 days once you get going. It will stop by itself.
Thank you so much for your help. Yes I’m also getting a routine as well. This ties loose ends and unanswered questions. I’m a little OCD sometimes. I appreciate your time to share and point things out. Thank you
Yes I get the weekly notifications about the process. I try to study or research as much as I can.
I am newish too, learning and reading up myself. Read the forums when you have time, a lot of good tips around here.
I just seen that my generic top up notifications start next week.
Yes it will do this just keep a eye on your water level I have started topping mine off every Monday since my water change is thursday, a nice mid week top off!
Always!
What do you mean they “start” next week?
Thanks Gunk
So the reminder to top up is programmed in. I received this info from Todd
this is my schedule. I’m assuming it has the same notifications for all recipes. Good thing is I can top up from the fill application.This is awesome to know, thank you for letting me know about this!
You can turn off tips under your settings, but you should get your weekly notifications during the right stages as noted
P.S.
Currently, notifications are time-based. They are sent out regardless of whether a user drained or filled, based on when they began their grow only. This is being addressed in the notification 2.0 project our team is working on. We have not solidified a timeline for this feature.
Something to look forward to right?
I like my notifications and tips. This is still new and exciting for me. I’m just a little excited sometimes
Cool. I thought you guys might be in the lab Hot Rodin things up. Awesome can’t wait . Thank you for sharing that information. Getting better as I/we go. thank you
I just noticed, once in flowering you might have to top off every day now and then. I was curious and tried a fill and it took a little bit more than I expected.
So make sure to check and not let it go to long.
That should be top on the priority list. Timed reminders are pretty useless. Data triggered notifications are sorely needed.
I am curious, if you can put the fill hose in a bucket and leave it there and if they can do “something” to make it auto fill?
I was once thinking to cut a small hole in the side where the hoses are and run them out the side into and empty bucket and a filled one. Then at least you could do a drain and fill simpler and not have to do much besides start the app.
