More Barrel Progress
May 10, 2011 Rain Barrel
It has been sitting for a while and seems to be happy!
Had quite a bit of rain, so the moisture probe has not gotten a real good workout yet, but seems to be working. Somebody flipped a switch and today it is near 90 with chance of rain tonight. Same for the next few days, so it may get a few good cycles. Been running on the NiMH battery as well and seems to be holding a charge.
Of course, now I need to tear it down and move it to the garden since I need to put a fence up where it is being tested at to keep the little one in. Planning on rebuilding the barrel and reservoir at the same time to be more appealing and sturdy.
Now I just need to plant the garden!
