Had a nice post written and it threw me an error when I tried to upload some pics because I wasn't logged in, totally deleted my post
So lets try this again.....
I have some updates!!
I got the arduino secured to a breadboard with some extra wire and breadboard holes lol I have the relay module zip tied to the end of the breadboard so I can have everything on a letter size breadboard, including the sensor wiring. I do not have much tension on any of the wires so that is why I chose this.....flexible....design lol
I placed the DHT11 and breadboard under my ladies legs and placed the DS18B20 in the res. I connected a CFL lamp to the relay and fired everything up. I had CoolTerm logging the serial data to a text file on my desktop. I was then easily able to create an Excel spreadsheet and graph from it. I am sure there is an easier way to import and do this in a more automated manner, but for testing purposes it works!
I set the logger up to log every minute just to get some data points gathered to test the process out, let it run for about 20 mins and did some medicating
I then graphed the data out and was going to post them lol My environment however did not change very much and the graphs were relatively straight lines..soooo you get the idea.
I have yet to fully integrate it into my grow area since I am still tinkering. I have not tried to power my LEDs on, but I do not anticipate any problems because it worked fine with a CFL lamp.
Here is what the text file CoolTerm created looks like
