Our project can be summarised as a garden or houseplant automation system. It will calculate temperature, sunlight, and soil moisture to tell you what the plant(s) need. We are going to have a relatively cheap and small sensor board that will get data from the plant and send it wirelessly to the base unit that will monitor all the plants and give the user notifications on required actions.

We plan to finish the main components of this by June 8th and release a promotional video a week later.

After speaking to multiple people in the farming industry it became clear that in the future we should create a more comprehensive device that also measures soil ph and nitrates in the soil. This could lead to a range of products for different user needs.
