A SparkFun ```Thing Plus ESP32 WROOM``` based plant monitor and dashboard. This hardware build leverages the ```esphome``` platform to monitor up to 8 plants with a Waveshare 2.9" e-ink display to show status information.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Long-term the dashboard will also support monitoring remote plants that are not directly tied into the main board via MQTT subscriptions (see ```Future Mini Build``` for hardware ideas).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The sensors and data are tied back to a home-assistant.io deployment using MQTT for tracking information inside Home Assistant. The local dashboard is meant to help remind the user (me) that plants need watering when close to the plants themselves.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Please note: *this is an indoor build*. Despite using parts that are safe for use outdoors it's assumed this build will live indoors. The e-ink display is *not* rated for outdoor use. Other components may not be viable for outdoor use as well.
