Not sure where to post this...
So I been working on building my little grow box where I'll be able to grow my TC cultures. It was an evolution of ideas, one of the comments on the forum sparked the idea to hook in a thermostat, and well I'll let my new video say the rest. Decided to make a new channel for Green thumb things, beside my art channel.
Tell me what you guys recon, leave a thumbs up too if you are as impressed as I am, lol

Thanks Matt, it was a fun project, I look forward this week to plugging them to the grow box, but I need to cut the holes a little bit bigger 1st. Also it was suggested in a community to give them a clean with bleach and use them as exhaust vents so they don't suck in bacteria and cut another hole with a filter to allowed air to get inside. Slowly Slowly, and ill get their, cant wait to get some cultures going but ill be patient, lol

But there is a delay when you put your finger, release the finger and after a while the fan stops.

Ah yeah, you mean when I heated up the temperature probe? I just held it for a few seconds to heat it up so the temp went over 25 so that the thermostat would turn on, then after that the delay was because in order for the fan to switch off I have set a 1 degree variable so the temp needs to get down to 24 and that how long it took to get down. I think that's what you was asking?

Is not the delay to big, down to 24 ?

I thought a 1 degree variable wouldn't be too bad, the temp should be staying around 24-25 constant. you can set it lower but I think 1 should be fine
