Dear all

Recently I’ve got my OS active which is really a good thing. But one open point is the soil moisture metering. Already before reading here I found the description refered to in .
Which is from my point of view not a bad one. Also vegetronix sounds reasonable.

With the first option I would miss the possibility of data logging. I mean it would be interesting to have a chart with the reported values.
With vegetronics I’m not sure if the sensor is made ready for permanant use (keep in the ground) and I still don’t have a data logger.

Another option would be to combine it with https://sensebox.kaufen/product/sensebox-mini
But this board is a bit an overload to just have the data of the soil sensor.

BTW: the logged values would be transmitted to openHAB

So I struggle a bit to decide what project to focus on. What would you guys suggest?

Kind regards
Stefan
