Work in Progress

The pigrow is a constantly growing project, be aware that some features may not be fully implemented yet.

How to Pigrow...

First you need the hardware, follow the hardware build guide available on the www.reddit.com/r/Pigrow/wiki/index for the most recent instructions, also see videos on https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIk00FJuYjqmJmfLuS5XKAw.

New hardware guides and full build and install instructions will be written when the software guide is finished (currently in progress)

First Steps

When you have a working raspberry pi connected to your network and the appropriate sensors and relays connected you're ready to install the software

Download the remote_gui for your desktop or laptop (unfortunately this does not run on the raspberry pi at the moment due WXpython support), once connected install the pigrow software from the system tab of the gui and the install wizard will guide you through the basic set up.

Once you have the software installed you can config your camera and timelapse, enable logging of the attached sensors and start setting up triggers to control your devices.
