Hey GrowDiaries, just dropping in with the weekly lowdown. It's been pretty chill, with the green scene mostly cruising along. 🛳️🌱
Bloom Phase Continues: The flowering phase is in full swing, and it's all looking bright and beautiful. The plant's just doing its thing, blossoming into its best self.
Auto-Watering Wonders: The automatic watering system is a total MVP, keeping the hydration game strong without missing a beat. It's like having a garden guardian angel. 💦😇
Sensor Tweaks Ahead: Remember the soil moisture sensor adjustments we did? Turns out, air humidity might be playing tricks on the readings too. Looks like it's back to the lab for me, gotta fine-tune that sensor to account for humidity's sneaky influence.
So, that's the word from green world. Here's to another week of nurturing, tinkering, and growing. Let's keep our leafy buddy thriving and dive into the tech side of things with gusto! 🌼
Was ist das für ein System um deine Daten so im Blick zu haben ? Bin auch am suchen um alles noch einen Ticken besser zu kontrollieren können .
Ansonsten happy Grow 🍀🌱
@Kazzy420, hi there! I did it by myself using Raspberry Pi and some other stuff from amazon.
here is a full set:
- Raspberry Pi 4 to collect metrics and control environment (63 usd)
- capacitive soil moisture sensor (8 usd for 4 pieces)
- air temperature sensor (12 usd for two pieces)
- air humidity sensor (model: dht22)
- USB powered water pump for drip watering (like 10 usd)
- USB camera to get instant photo of the plant (that was a gift)
- telegram bot to receive environment alerts and to get instant information about the plant including: temperature, humidity, soil moisture level, current day and week and a status of the plant
the next week I will set up scheduled watering (not just by tapping message to telegram bot)
and also I bought Raspberry compatible TDS sensor, but haven't set it up yet :)
I wrote exporter in Python to export metrics to the database and store them for 1 year. I use Prometheus as a database for metrics.
For visualization I use Grafana
telegram bot was written using Python
all the software run on Raspberry
