I like what you got so far.  I would recommend changing the scale a bit for your dials (ph range from 7-9 and temp from 60-90 would give you a more accurate display that would be easier to read).  you could also throw up a digital readout next to or below each dial.  this would give you a better at-a-glance appeal.

I had pulled an extension method from the web somewhere, so you can use DateTime to poll the current time from the NST servers.  Of course, you have to be connected to the internet to do it.

Ok its working AWSOME!!!  had some issues getting the log and relays working, but noted that both were missing : base()   

added that, and all works great.  Now I just need to find out why I can only get the temp to publish to thingspeak.  (for some reason PH is not even though I added a field2 to the channel).

This is great code. a few things for cleanup, and I am having issues with making changes on the website (anything that tries to modify and write back to the config.js file ends up corrupting and deleting all of its content.  but this shouldn't be too hard of a fix when I get a chance to take a look at it again.

I just went with a simple thermistor for the temp sensing.  Probably not quite as accurate, but I'm only really worried about extreme values.

 

As for the binaries locking things up, I have noticed when accessing the NST timeservers, it's taking for-fracking-ever.  It may be worth changing the number of attempts for setting the system time.

I feel like a dunce...

For the life of me, I cannot figure out the RTC stuff.  How do I get my RTC time updated from NST?  am I not understanding the get time from network function?

Some pics of my setup (will add more pics of my controller and electronics soon)

Thank Jeittreim.

 

Question do I need another module to run the probe you linked?

Not at all, H07R0d's code is for an analog temp sensor, I just commented out the code for that in the temperature plugin and added the onewire code in its place.
