helloplant

@yarik_chillom thanks for your support!

@robert_melkonyan thanks for the positive feedback!

@peter_honeder Neat product! Not sure if this is already in the works, but it would also be cool if you could have it automatically notify your caretaker, along with any special instructions you want to include. Good luck!

@huangdun UI is in Mandarin, and there are quite a few people who don't speak it. That said, helloplant's advantage here only exists until/unless Xiaomi translates their product.

@verbiate they already have the option to choose different languages since a few months ago. Flower Care by 北京花花草草科技有限公司 https://itunes.apple.com/ca/app/...

@verbiate @huangdun the largest difference is, that we support notifications directly over BLE. Additionally we also provide a soil temperature reading, which isn't influenced by the sunlight and provides better approximation for plant positioning. And when you are not at home or want to integrate with other smart home systems, we offer a remote hub to access the data over network.

@joshdance Hi Joshua! Our sensor measures soil moisture capacitively through the plastic hull of the sensor. The plant is only exposed to a small very low power electric field for a few milliseconds, there will be no damaging current flowing through the plants roots.
