Calibrated plant-monitoring lab
Build the reviewed main project, capture four local calibration endpoints, and stream soil, water, temperature, humidity, pressure, and status data to Serial Monitor. This is the supported core lesson; physical verification of the exact catalog assembly is still required.
What you build in this project
Calibrated plant-monitoring lab is one focused build from the ESP32 Plant Monitoring Learning Kit. It uses the parts listed below to make a working electronics example, then you can combine it with the other projects in the kit.
Build the reviewed main project, capture four local calibration endpoints, and stream soil, water, temperature, humidity, pressure, and status data to Serial Monitor. This is the supported core lesson; physical verification of the exact catalog assembly is still required.
Parts used
ESP32U, DIY-002 capacitive soil sensor, DIY-025 water sensor, DIY-018 BME280, full-size breadboard, jumper wires
What to check
Wire the parts, upload the sketch from the kit page, then test this project by watching the Serial Monitor or the output behavior.
What you learn
You learn how the controller reads real sensor signals, makes a decision in code, and turns that result into a useful output.
What this project uses
Every item is in the kit — nothing extra to buy.
ESP32 Plant Monitoring Learning Kit
All 7 parts in one box, with this project and 6 more to build from them.
