Time Lapse settings

I was going to take a time lapse of the grow.

Probably 16-20 weeks of veg and flower.

Any idea of software to use and the interval i need to take pictures.

Hoping for about a 10 minute video, but even that sounds like a boring amount of time

A 10minutes video requires roughly 600 seconds of 24 or 30 frames each. Or 48 if you want it to look supersmooth on your tv in 10 years too. For example, if you use 30 frames a second, you need 18000frames.

18 weeks is 126 days. 1440 minutes in a day, so 181440 minutes for your total grow. Take a pic every ten minutes and you will end up with roughly 18K frames for 10 minutes of smooth video.

What changed your mind?

I used the wrong tense, i AM going to ....

Sweet. The one YouTube video I like is Micky MacDonald Ganja Farmer.

I would do one pic every 2 min 30 sec for 12 hours for starters. That would give you a 20 sec video at 24 fps.

QuickTime can sequence the pics into video instantly using one menu selection. Easy. (If you use QuickTime, shoot pics at the lowest quality. QuickTime will struggle with huge files)

here is 2 days worth, taken every 3 mins

seems like i need to increase the snapshot time, will try 6 minutes

I might be crazy, but once i added a 1/2 gallon bottle with 4 cups water, 1 cup sugar and a dry yeast packet the growth increased.

growth taking off with CO2, switched from yeast generator to a zippo hand warmer, 12 hours per day, with naptha
