Free Grow Software!

I'm going to check this out.

Also I always thought it would be nice to know how many hours are on a bulb since it was replaced.
I write down on my bulb box's the amount of hours on them when I switch so I don't lose track
on when I should switch. I don't know if anyone else could see this as helpful but it's a thought.

No Thank you for providing the community with your software!
I've looked at a few already and none really come close to just using pen and paper for what I like to track.
I'm liking what I see so far though and I'm already beginning to populate some data into it.
I see you mentioned supporting sensors in future builds. At that time will there be an option for recording that
data, such as temp and co2 ppm? Again I'm not sure if that info is really necessary or if I just am over analyzing.
I like to note any changes I see in the plants individually with the environment.

I like the plant id option. Of the variety I'm running I break them down even further so I can track possible phenotypes
I may like over time over others. for example X-1 X-2, B-1, B-2 etc.
Having software makes coming up with a logging system so much easier..

You bet Yes we would like to automate the logging of your room environment, and then graph that data with charts/graphs in addition to being able to look at the raw data. I've looked into some inexpensive interfaces and plan on setting that up in the near future. We are going to write a plug type of system so that it's not dependant on any specific hardware. Another developer is also buying or has bought a more turn key sensor solution and plans to write support in for that as well so we'll support at least 2 varieties of hardware and anyone can write their own hardware support in. We can add a phenotype ID or notes field as well, another great idea!

Woo! We're live!

Lx - just run a VirtualOS app. I considered a phone version of the app... simply interface with the instance on the desktop. Authenticated, using the API we've discussed. Could take pictures/video direct on your phone and it is transferred to your desktop automagically. I think Apple and Google would approve it. No idea about Microsoft.

Here is the standalone version for anyone that doesn't want to use the installer version --> http://herbiq.codeplex.com/releases/...nloadId=130416

The standalone won't automatically update like the installer will though

Some one posted this to the site yesterday, the source forge link, and i got to playing with your software. What a great tool. I want to 2nd the idea of having an Iphone/Blackberry/Windows mobile device sync function. that way one could input the data and take pictures right from the grow room, and let it sync with the PC to get the overall big picture later when u need it. thanks again for helping the community, you NEED to setup a domain and center distribution point, as well as a donations button

HERBIQ.com still available? :P

Thanks, we're actually not acceping donations and don't want to put our real names on any domain but appreciate the notion. Densebuds and I are already planning a win7 phone app now so expect to see that in the future as well as better versions of the desktop app

Good software, should be alot cooler about ver 2.0.

Just some suggestions and my 2 cents.

1. Add mother plants or a "Clone" button option to make clones and just add an incremental number after the cutting, so it will sorta automate that process. Strain Clone #x. I hope that sorta makes sense.

2. Copy. Being able to make copies for adding the 5 plants of the same strain you already have going.

3. Events Reservor Seclection, Drop down selection of reservoir and how much was used, and let the program do the math.

4. Reservoir. Drop down selection from your nutrients. I'm sure that one is being worked on already.

Ok back to playing with your software. Good job.
