The first version of this project is done! Continuation of the work found: here This page is a “project page” that contains every bit of work I’ve done leading toward this final post. EDIT: Update 1 – Transplanting Plants: I move the plants from the grid to pots. Update 2 – System overhaul: Update the…

Continue reading →Last night I finished the majority of the software for this project. Here’s a video of me going over what happened and what the program does in simpler terms: Essentially, every hour, the raspberry pi samples data from 4 humidity probes, an LDR and a tmp sensor. Once the sampling is complete, it dumps the…
Continue reading →So as I said in one of my previous posts, I am going to be collecting a lot of data over the next few weeks while the tomato plants grow. I will be doing this to determine when soil is “dry” and how temperature and light effect that process. For the last week I have…
Continue reading →This is a short post illustrating the process of planting the seeds. Hey! This post was written a long time ago, but I’m leaving it up on the off-chance it may help someone. Proceed with caution. It may not be a good idea to blindly integrate this code or work into your project, but…
Continue reading →Long time viewers will remember when this idea was conceived two Novembers ago, but essentially it’s a way to detect the relative moisture of a substance. The principal is the same as in the above post, but this time, I made it bigger and attached it to a Raspberry Pi. The reason this is essential, is because I recently purchased a 12v DC pump capable of…
Continue reading →Time to get this data we’re harvesting graphed. In a couple past posts, I’ve used pChart to graph random data but now since data is getting dumped into a mysql chart, it would make sense to try and graph that data. To install pChart on my system (same installs as listed in this post) to…
Continue reading →I’m in a hotel trying to occupy myself with something interesting so I’ve decided to work on this. I had to re-image the SD card I’ve been developing this project on, but I saved to code so there’s no problem there. Now I need to re-install all the basic packages. First I need to get…
Continue reading →I’m taking a “break” from my drone while I save some money to buy more tricopter parts, and since the weather’s getting nicer and nicer I’ve decided to start working on my PiPlanter again. As a refresher, the PiPlanter is a Raspberry Pi powered garden. The goal is for it to just be able to…
Continue reading →Here’s a video: Essentially, the adc reads an analog value and sends it to python. Python connects to a mysql database and adds the data to that. Once the user accesses the php script, a table, containing all of the values, is rendered. First of all, you’ll need to make a mysql table with the correct specifications:

CREATE TABLE adc_input_data_10(Sample_Number INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY, Time VARCHAR(100), Channel_1 VARCHAR(100), Channel_2 VARCHAR(100), Channel_3 VARCHAR(100) ); |
