During the last month on the farm we produced 1.34 megawatt hours of solar power. It would seem the sun is coming back and soon to be in full force over the summer. We are producing some good numbers right now. I recently got a steady load put on Array B, so I hope to start consuming more of the power and not just storing it for night time.

We cut back the weeds by the solar panels last week as well, seems the lime only works as a barrier when you pack it at least 8 inches thick. So we are back to cutting the grass in some spots where we did not have enough lime to completely cover them.

Array A production stats:

Load: 1677.5 kWh
PV: 338.1 kWh
Grid Import: 1454.3 kWh
Battery Charge: 116.5 kWh
Battery Discharge: 94.9 kWh

*combined stats are different from screenshot from single inverter.
