Bud Tracker Software

Has anyone heard of or using the software bud tracker? I hear it is an awesome app that pretty much allows you to monitor ph, ec, tds, temp, humidity, lights and some other items. It can be a pain to measure multiple times per day and having it tied into software with alerts and logging is ideal. Please tell me your experience with this software before I purchase

Is it called "Bud Tracker" ? I can't seem to find anything on it.. do you know the company who developed it?

I dont believe it is released yet but I will post again once I find out. Yes I believe that is what it is called.

from what i read bud tracker will be relatively cheap for the software itself because there is also cost for the devices you need like a ph, ec, tds probe, temp/humidity sensors and whatever else you want to monitor. what i like is once i have this setup i can then setup logging and alerts directly to my email or smart phone. how nice would it be to setup a range for your ph that is being read every 5 minutes and get an alert on your phone that attention is needed?

You might also want to look at grow assistant as well. So far I've been using it since the start of this grow and does help you keep track.

What would the meter cost? I see they have usb based meters like this one but it's a bit pricey --> http://www.benmeadows.com/store/Water_Testing_and_Sampling/Water_Testing/pH_Meters_and_Solutions/22608/?CID=9OP001

I'm working on a free open source grow software package it wouldn't be too hard to incorporate a usb or RS232 ph and temp meter into the software.

Yeah, im very interested in that idea for sure! That would keep my mind at peace being able to read grow room info right on my iPhone

I have it ghetto rigged right now. I stream 2 webcams, 1 in the room watching the grow and 1 that points at my hygrometer. I'm able to view both of these cams from my phone or any computer in the world

From what I saw for around $500 you can monitor the basics ph, temp/humidity, lights, water temp and EC/PPM. This includes hardware and software. There are also additional add-ons if you want to do more.

i will post site once I have more info.

This thing looks AWESOME, don't need a computer it is one itself

Nice app you wrote!
As for the meter it is cool but a little pricey.
I am holding off for the bud tracker if it is around 500
