Save the plants!

by  ISP Gardeners

Description :

Have you ever had a plant and not known how to care for it? Do you constantly find yourself wondering, “Did I give it enough water? Did I overwater it?” ISP Gardeners are here to solve this problem that plagues so many people!

A group of kids from diverse backgrounds, Greek Roma, Greece, Ukraine, China, Germany, the U.S., Lithuania, the U.K., and India, combined technology with plant care. With the help of the micro:bit, they created a system that measures soil moisture and alerts us exactly when the plants are thirsty.

The result? The plants always get the right amount of water and thrive!

We really liked the collaboration with other classmates in our multicultural school. Every child wherever it comes from achieved to care about the same plant and used the technology on order to support all this process. We’ve decided to participate after our teachers’ encouragement!

We wish we could see a full video of your project! It is a great idea though! We all have forgotten to water our plants that did not survive after all. Your idea is very useful!
