During the fall of 2020 I created an autonomous grow system. The primary frame of the system was 3D printed and an Arduino microcontroller was used. The first control system was a light control system that allowed the user to set the LED strips light intensity value with a potentiometer. The second control system was a moisture control system that let the user set the moisutre threshold, once the moisture sensor value droped below the threshold, a pump was actuated and produced small amounts of water. All of this was displayed on an LCD screen.
