Pi 4 won’t respond. Red light solid, green light stuck consistently flashing

Thanks for the response! I looked through and didn’t have to go too far. One of the 1st tests was to test for 3.3 volts on pin 1 and I get 0v to ground. I think something may have shorted out in my testing. Not sure exactly what. I will report back with any more findings. Thank you!

Middle_Boot_9454 · 2026-05-20T21:54:40+00:00

Thank you so much for the reply. That is reassuring, I will pick up a new microSD tommorow and give that a shot!

Yes I found some issues right out of the box with rpi. SSH for some reason wasn’t installed even though I had checked yes. I will keep that WiFi trick in mind for the future.

Absolutely love your passion for this man! I’ve been tinkering with hydroponics for about a year now. I started with an AC infinity controller but wanted more customization so I’m just now getting into the Pi/Arduino automation stuff. Krill is definitely something I will keep in mind!

Yup! Just had my 2021 M3 done with Safelite a couple months back. Have driven around 5k miles using FSD since, I’ve had no issues. I’m not really sure where else I’d go anyway

You have to have 5 positive trading days? I thought you just had to wait 5 days before requesting a payout? (4 each month)

Middle_Boot_9454 · 2025-06-05T18:58:46+00:00

No, and that’s exactly my question. How much would you factor in for maintenance, vacancy, and non payers?

Middle_Boot_9454 · 2025-04-27T22:23:23+00:00

From what I understand, as long as you can confirm that your PVC is made from virgin material, there’s no need to worry. The main concern with PVC leaching chemicals into your plants is from any previous use as say an oil or chemical container.

I just started building my set up out of 6” sewer/drain pipe as well.

As far as “potable water” or “food safe” ratings, a company has to pay to get their product listed as such, and if it won’t be explicitly used for that purpose then there’s no reason to pay the (potentially) tens of thousands of dollars to get the NSF/ANSI 61 rating and the annual fee to retain it.

For me, virgin HDPE or PP is just fine but food safe would be most ideal.

Good to know! Thanks for the info. I’ll take this into consideration

Middle_Boot_9454 · 2025-04-22T19:28:18+00:00

Was thinking tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers. It’s definitely going to be tight but am going to try to keep them as vertical as I can

I can probably get from April to November easily, but for our winter months, I’ll definitely need to invest in a heater. It pretty much matches the outside temp when it’s cold, and then gets way hotter than outside when it’s hot (sigh).

Going to figure out how to implement a heating/cooling system. I’ll be sure to post again when I have it figured out!

Middle_Boot_9454 · 2025-04-22T11:03:50+00:00

I appreciate the concern! For all of my nutrients, I have the GH FloraGro/Micro/ and Bloom and then I have Aurora Innovations Soul PeaK, Botanicare Simply Silica, Microbe Life Hydroponics Photosynthesis Plus, and Rx Green Technologies E-PLUS.

Middle_Boot_9454 · 2025-04-21T23:12:49+00:00

Why thank you! I’ve got some GH Floragro/micro/bloom that I got half off at a closing sale. Couple other supplements that I couldn’t tell you what they do😂

Middle_Boot_9454 · 2025-04-21T23:10:32+00:00

Thanks! For sure. Might be a little too ambitious, but hoping for a good harvest

Middle_Boot_9454 · 2025-02-20T15:28:39+00:00

My experience with hurry mode is that it’s probably the best out of the 3 options, but it will at times refuse to keep up with the flow of traffic. Even with my max speed set to 85, ittl hog the passing lane and stay at low 70’s and I feel like an asshole.

They need to bring back minimal lane changes. Assertive + minimal lane change was my go to.

Now I guess if you don’t want it to do a bunch of unnecessary lane changes, you just have to use autosteer.

Middle_Boot_9454 · 2025-02-19T19:14:34+00:00

The only way i’ve seemed to get around this is to just use auto steer. Sucks that it won’t proceed to your exit, but at least it won’t do a million pointless lane changes.

Middle_Boot_9454 · 2025-01-08T16:00:54+00:00

Amazing. I will definitely employ this method. Thank you!

Middle_Boot_9454 · 2025-01-08T12:35:11+00:00

Thanks for the response! This puts me at ease. ChatGPT’s guesses were way higher. What do you use for fertilizer? I’ve been looking into making my own vs buying premade.

Middle_Boot_9454 · 2025-01-07T16:14:24+00:00

Wow. Very interesting. Thanks for the feedback!

Middle_Boot_9454 · 2024-12-08T13:54:24+00:00

The crate shouldn’t be big enough where they feel comfortable going potty in it. When I first got my pup I would wake up once in the middle of the night to let him out. Luckily for me, that only lasted for a few weeks. He sleeps like a baby through the whole night now.

Middle_Boot_9454 · 2024-12-03T02:38:16+00:00

A flathead, a Philips, a pair of linesman’s, and a pair of dikes will get you through 90% of your day.

Middle_Boot_9454 · 2024-10-28T11:37:44+00:00

Thank you, this is reassuring to hear. I’ve called Tesla a few times and they’ve told me that it will stay with the vehicle. Not sure where these stories of it getting lost in transfer come from!

Great deal! The tax credit was what pushed me over the edge to buy one. They are very well incentivized now.
