I am tidying and fixing up flaws in my model that informs plant maintenance.

Before I destroy 2-3 hours, does anyone here own a plant and would like an Arduino powered box that helps you keep your plant healthy?

Here is the old design (Top off) with flaws. I am currently going through my docs to see what went wrong.

Model name is GHG/GX-E38: GHG is project name (GreenHouseGas) GX-E38 is HEXA encoded model name.

Cheers!

    The box monitors temp/humidity and soil moisture and Beeps/Flashes to inform that the plant needs maintenance.

        Settings in the firmware. If OP was smart they would call a config file that they can then update as they go along, but if it’s a simple interface that may not be necessary

          A seperate config file wasn’t used, but there is a controller able to change the config.

        It’s probably a soil moisture sensor. I suspect for succulents you would probably want to add a timer to the sensor, but it seems like something you could automate.
