Plant Monitoring

An Adafruit HUZZAH32 based plant monitor. This hardware build leverages the esphome platform to monitor a plant and transmit the information to an MQTT server. The sensors and data are tied back to a home-assistant.io deployment using MQTT for tracking information inside Home Assistant.

Please note: this is a SINGLE plant build. It can be adapted for >1 plant.

Future Software

  • Alerts when not reporting data (likely dead batteries / similar)
    • Add 'expire after' for the signal check in HA (4 hours reasonable)
    • If it's expired throw an alert stating no data from node for x amount of time
