If you are interested in seeing how I made this project or you want to make one for yourself, please follow along!
Adjustable grow light that gives the user ~6-8 more inches of height once the plants begin to grow. Moisture sensor page that indicates which of the 4 herb aliquots need to be watered. Additionally, user can disable LED's from turning on if they so choose.
LED setting that allows user to set desired "turn on" time and duration. Aliquot tray is inserted into a basin that collects any water drainage and isolates itself from the electronics. Four 2.35" x 2.35" x 2.33" aliquots for planting herbs. Touch screen display that displays time, day of the week, and date. Here is a quick rundown of some of the features of my smart indoor herb garden: I'm hoping that plants will begin to sprout this upcoming week and I will be sure to update this Instructable with progress growth pics! I just finished this project and planted some basil and chive seeds on. All in all, I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out! I figured why not try to make my own Aerogarden like herb garden using an Arduino with some of this extra time that I have during quarantine! I ended up going a little extra with the project in that I added moisture sensors to each soil aliquot but it has proven to be useful so far. Additionally, I had a unused Arduino Mega with a TFT touchscreen shield that had just been sitting in my electronics bin for years. To learn more about the "Safe Seed Pledge" please visit this Instructable, I will show you how I made my smart indoor herb garden! I had a couple of inspirations for this project with the first being that I had some interest in the in home Aerogarden models. Further, we wish to support agricultural progress that leads to healthier soils, to genetically diverse agricultural ecosystems, and ultimately to healthy people and communities. More research and testing is necessary to further assess the potential risks of genetically engineered seeds. We feel that genetically engineered varieties have been insufficiently tested prior to public release. The mechanical transfer of genetic material outside of natural reproductive methods and between genera, families or kingdoms, poses great biological risks as well as economic, political, and cultural threats. For the benefit of all farmers, gardeners and consumers who want an alternative, we pledge that we do not knowingly buy or sell genetically engineered seeds or plants. We must protect this foundation as a safe and genetically stable source for future generations. "Agriculture and seeds" provide the basis upon which our lives depend.
