plantSitter

With all honesty, I have been a terrible plant dad in the past. I used to have a Lily plant called Lillard which I adopted out of Netto (a German grocery store), and it survived for a bit until falling victim to my neglect and poor watering regimen. Ever since, I vouched to respect Lillard’s memory by not owning more indoor plants just to let them die. Fast forward to now, a friend has graduated and is moving out, and as I’m helping her, I accept a Furry Feather Calathea. And, as per my vouch to Lillard, I will do what I can to properly nurture Calathius (yes, I have named it Calathius, not to mention, I also have a basil plant called Basilson).

Shortcomings

  • the readings can be tampered with by poor wire connections
  • different plants absorb water differently so one button might not be effective for all three
  • My current WiFi works like a Public hotspot and resets every day. Readings would stop with wifi connection is lost.

About

My plants kept dying so I programmed an ESP32 board to become the Plant Daddy I never was.
