The soil moisture sensor module , built around the LM393 comparator, gives an active-low (L) level output when the soil is dry (determined by a pre-setted threshold value). This digital output (wet ...
When I started working on my soil moisture sensor, I had little idea about how harsh an environment the soil really is. In this đź§µ, cool failure modes & solutions when sticking electronics in ...
My soil-moisture reading was in the low 700s in soil that had around 30 percent moisture (according to a comparison with a commercial soil-moisture sensor), and 661 in a drier pot.
Using an Arduino shield extension board together with a NB-IoT BLE Gateway and BLE Sensor Probe the open source system allows you to connect to 25 ...
