thingiverse

This is a custom-built box and watering adapter for a 4-plant automated watering system centered around the Raspberry Pi Zero W. Each plant is independently monitored and watered, with real-time activities tracked on a web-based chart. The box houses the Pi, four moisture sensor boards, an 8-channel relay, an analog-digital converter, a MicroUSB board, and eight 3.5mm audio jacks - four for attaching moisture sensors and four for connecting pumps. To distribute Vcc and GND among all components, the box includes posts for four boards that can be easily cut from a PCB.
