With my working during the intensive week, I have completed the prototype system with the following features:

• Ebb and flow hydroponic system with peristaltic pump 
• RGBW lighting with SK6812 chips and custom made PCB
• Air, power delivery and wiring
• Sensors (ambient temperature and humidity, water temperature)
• Cooling unit to test the electronics choices
• MQTT system with EC2 server with custom domain 
• MQTT msg handling with node-red
• Smart phone dashboard with MQTT Dash
• PC dashboard with node-red dashboard

Deployment environment photo also updated in the project.

During the two weeks of evaluation , a few issues pop out and forced me to stop the testing. A list of issues are stated below

• The LED tends to heat up quite hot. Thermal management should be in place to extend the life of LED panel

• The peristaltic pump form black particular in the rotation parts and possible damage of rolling parts. The speed of peristaltic pump should be reduce 

• The planter have serious grow of algae and rusting occur. Plastic planter will be explore in the coming version
