Specs: fan triggering based on humidity/temp, night temperature setpoint

Model: wall-mount controller

• Ep 009: Jeremy says he will 'probably gonna run on our Niwa wall controller, I'm going to at night run a lower temperature only because temperature won't matter to me and that'll kick my fan on keeping the humidity lower'.

Niwa intelligent grow controller

automation explicit recommendation 1 mentions

Use case: Single timer controlling the whole 10x10 — flips all three cannabis quadrants and the veggie quadrant together at 12/12

Specs: all lights plug into it, intelligent timer, one timer runs the entire 10x10 tent, set on/off for 12 hours on / 12 hours off

Model: Niwa controller

• Ep 017: Jeremy's entire 10x10 is based on one Niwa timer setup — everything plugs in there. In Colorado he normally runs lights at night, but since he works on-site they run during the day.

Niwa Grow Hub

automation explicit recommendation 1 mentions

Use case: Automated environmental control for the 10x10 flower tent — lighting schedule, humidification, fan, and night-time humidity drop for bud rot prevention

Specs: 15A / 120V limit — Jeremy runs two for his 2x2 and 10x10, Wi-Fi smart power strip, app-controlled; can run without Wi-Fi after being configured, but then sends no updates, around $200, controls humidifier, fan, grow lights and optional drip system

Model: Grow Hub smart power strip

• Ep 019: Jeremy loves it once set up — 'I just don't have to do anything anymore' — and calls it a great go-between between a dumb timer and a thousand-dollar grow room controller

Use case: Active grow room controller running the 10x10 environment

Specs: controls grow room (not just monitors), mounted near the Pulse Pro for comparison, temperature and humidity readings

• Ep 022: Jeremy compares the Niwa readings against the Pulse Pro hanging in the same spot and is happy both gave very similar numbers at 80F and 50% RH (~1.8 VPD)

Niwa grow room controller

automation explicit recommendation 1 mentions

Use case: Season 2 Quadrant 4 automation — environment and drip irrigation control

Specs: cheap alternative to thousand-dollar controllers, controls the whole grow room, irrigation function, newly-added VPD feature, phone app control

• Ep 042: Jeremy calls it 'the white power strip that has an app on the phone and it controls your whole grow room — instead of spending thousands on like a grow room controller we can use this Niwa'. Notes they just added a VPD feature. Will use the irrigation function
