What is FarmSignal?

Simply put, FarmSignal is an open-source automated plant watering system. The goal of this system is to water your plants automatically while monitoring the room's ambient temperature and humidity to ensure a plant's healthy lifespan.

Why FarmSignal?

The basic necessities for a plant to flourish are water and sunlight. Monitoring a plant's water intake is important for its optimal growth. Too much water and the plant can drown. Not enough water and the plant will starve. There are existing automated plant watering systems, however, they are usually expensive, not user friendly, not feasible to assemble, or contain components that corrode away over continued use. FarmSignal aims to address all the aforementioned issues.
