Electrocannabis

Hello Everyone,

I've decided to get started 3D printing some electroculture formers in different sizes for my friends.

I've also decided to try electroculture out for myself.

I've started out printing a small size because I'm in the process of getting my 3D printer tuned back up to optimal performance after not being used for a while, and anyone who 3D prints will tell you smaller prints are the way to go while actively tuning a 3D printer.

So let's see what I'm doing here:

Currently I only have electrical wire to work with for copper. Since it does not have a strong memory due to the non-conductive protective casing, I'll have to keep the formers in use. This is perfectly fine for indoor use because they'll maintain the shape and the polylactic acid should not melt in tents, whereas direct sunlight might melt them.

Hot glue works just fine for keeping the wire in place.

Having a wire stripper is nice, because I cannot tell you how many wires I have stripped in my life using my teeth. Sometimes that's a painful experience and I wouldn't recommend trying it.

That should do the trick!

I've decided to daisy chain them.

We can see here that all of the electroculture cones are daisy chained and I embedded the copper tips down into the medium to where the roots of the plants start.

We can also see I've continued the chain with a loose wire. This wire will end up outside of the tent connecting multiple other cones. There will even be cones outdoors connected to the tent inside.

I'm also planning to add clockwise cones to the pots. These cones are counterclockwise in their coil direction.

I have the clockwise cones mostly prepared for installation tomorrow. In my busy haste putting them together I didn't place much thought into how long I was making the tips, so I'll need to even those up first.

The tips should all be about an inch long with the copper exposed. The copper on the bottom should be going right into the soil. At least that's what I think.

I'm open to suggestions, corrections, and essentially any thoughts really. My knowledge base with this science is currently infantile, and I have hoards of studying to do before I have a good conceptual comprehension of what it is I'm even doing.

Tomorrow there will be more wires in the tent.

Thank you for stopping by!

Have a good day! -@futuremind
