    With how busy our lives are, it's sometimes easy to forget to pay a little attention to your thirsty indoor plants until it's too late and you are left with a crusty pile of yellow carcasses. Instead of constantly replacing those plants, we'll show you how to make a compact, automated, raspberry pi powered gardener to water and light your plants. This gardener's memory is impeccable, and never forgets to water your plant.
    This project uses a Raspberry Pi Zero W to run the software. It doesn't use wifi, so you could also use the Raspberry Pi Zero. However, if you want to extend the functionality and make it connect to an IoT app, you'll want to use the Zero W.

    Seems like there are a lot of requests for extra features (webcam, ph/moistness sensor, IoT app, etc.) If there is enough interest, we could make a follow-up video about how to add some of those features.

    Nice project! I also made an automated garden, but wrote my code in C++ for an Arduino. It'd be pretty easy for you to make a simple voltage divider that measures the voltage drop across the soil for a quick and simple moisture probe if you plan to improve it. I really like the grow light and small pump!

    This actually gets me halfway to my end goal of an automated chameleon cage. The lights and water are covered. Next I need to set up a thermometer, and code that information to auto activate the heat lamp/cooling fan to maintain optimal temperature. As well as a humidity sensor set to activate the fogger below optimum humidity.

    Yeah, awesome project...but the Pi seems wasted on such basic functionality. I mean, these functions could be controlled by a simple timer. Would also like to see watering based on soil humidity, ambient temperature etc. Keep up the great work :)

  • @DevinWeaver
    @DevinWeaver 4 года назад

    Sorry to be a nitpick but you can schedule things on a Pi with Cron! Would make the code much smaller. A command for on off light and one for the pump. Add two entries to the crontab and done. No startup script needed.

    Hello, You could solve the same issue with two timers, one link to the light and the other to the pump... However you have greate potential to do things like; humidity sensor for better watering, compensate outside light variations with the lamps, ph of soil for fertiliser, timelapse of the plant (with lamp on) and so on. This would bring real value to the project as the Raspberry Pi is well suited to solve this issues. Looking forward more developed project.
