Re: Wi-Fi Thermometer
30m to the greenhouse is good. Clear or obstructed? Pretty clear. There's a very overgrown hazel near the greenhouse but you can see it from the kitchen window. At the weekend I will test the outdoor sensor to see how far away it will work from (my garden's about 60m long). Tested it today and even...

Re: Re-potting and itchy eyes
If it's your eyes as you describe it is probably particle irritant, rather than bacterial. Are you using perlite in your potting mix? Legionnella is a bacteria of stagnant water so whether the compost was from household waste or other sources shouldn't make a jot of difference. I'd try using thin gl...

Re: Agave talk & pictures
Looking good Wayne. Looks a lot sunnier in the smoke than up here in Notts!

Re: Wi-Fi Thermometer
I previously used some wifi enabled ones (there: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0B99Q69JZ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 ), but have switched to the same switchbot one. So far for me: -More reliable connection -No issues with humidity yet (the wifi ones suffered, and one ...

Re: Wi-Fi Thermometer
Took some finding on the product website but they reckon the clear range from sensor to hub is up to 120m. I've assumed that will be about half in the real world but should still reach my new greenhouse site, hopefully!

Re: Wi-Fi Thermometer
Where does the hub live? Currently in my kitchen! That's the nearest room to the back garden but with good WiFi. Conservatory and outdoor sensor about 3 to 4m away; greenhouse about 30m down the garden. The hub doesn't have sensors so it is giving my home temperature as the warmest of the three lin...

Re: Wi-Fi Thermometer
Rather than start a new thread I thought I'd update this one! In a search for a simple thermometer/ hydrometer for my greenhouse and conservatory that won't need WiFi running down the garden; I have found this Switchbot set up (https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B0BVZDVFZG?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_...

Re: Precocious Agave!
They look interesting Dave - was this a cross with potatorum or a selfing? Fingers crossed the yellow ones might throw some variegated plants!

Re: Precocious Agave!
The Agave utahensis have overtaken the A.impressa.
Got a few others showing through too. Missed the excitement of this since last year!
