Right now I'm looking at smartbee because it's water content sensors allow you to automatically bounce between moisture content levels, say, 50 and 80%. Problem is that the system costs almost 3k and doesn't seem to have an app, and hasn't answered the phone or called me back. Not sure I want to give them my money.
Are there any other options? Perhaps delving into Arduino? I need it to grab readings from water content sensors and then power a 110v outlet for my pump. I also need to be able to set rules for watering such as only watering during certain hours and stopping for the day once I hit the max WC level I set.
Any ideas?
