DIY Smart Indoor Plant Base - Know When Your Plant Needs Watering

Make your own Smart Indoor Plant base which monitors the moisture content of your indoor plant's soil and lights up a ring to tell you when you need to water it. The ring is green when your plant has enough water and fades through to being red when your plant's soil is drying out and it needs to be given some more water. For the detailed step by step instructions and template downloads, follow this link - https://www.the-diy-life.com/diy-smart-indoor-plant-base-know-when-your-plant-needs-watering/ This project is an adaptation of my first soil moisture monitoring stick, which gives you more information about the moisture content of the soil but is not the best looking device.
