New to Automation, not to gardening

YO!
Caught wind of LEDG on youtube and have watched every vid. I've always wanted to get into home automation and have never found anything that explains it like LEDG. Thanks!
I'm an experienced gardener and have been growing exotic peppers and tomatoes outside for a while. I recently picked up an aeroponics setup and want to automate it, especially since short cycle timers are so expensive. Looking forward to growing indoors through the winter and such.
I had a Rasp Pi 3 hanging around and have always wanted to learn to automate simple relays at my house. I got HA installed and followed all the steps in the first three vids of LEDG and have successfully been able to control a relay from my phone. Neat! Next step will be to figure out how to program logic for the GPIOs on my pi so I can cycle the pump for 5 sec on/20 min off. I see that you guys use ESP32 boards to do your controlling, so looking forward to LEDG helping out in the future vids. I'm ready for the next steps!
Tons of questions and looking forward to diving into it all further as I build out my setup. Thanks for the help so far LEDG.
