GROWbox Supervisor System (GROWSS) is a grow box or grow cabinet environmental controller. GROWSS uses a Raspberry Pi (RPI) & Grove sensors to monitor and control the environment in your grow box or cabinet.

Environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, soil moisture, & smoke (from fire) are monitored and displayed on a terminal connected to the RPI & on a mobile app. GROWSS also controls the exhaust fan and grow lights based on the time interval (ie. 12 hours on/12 hours off) & from environmental factors, temp & humidity.

The environmental values are saved to the local storage every 15 minutes and when an alarm is present. Hi & low values are also saved.

The LEDs on the case & the mobile application indicate if there is a high/low temp alarm, hi/low humidity alarm, soil moisture alarm, or smoke alarm.

A speaker (buzzer) is activated on the case if there is a smoke alarm. 2 other LEDs indicate if either the exhaust fan is on or if the humidifier is on.

Features

  • Monitors & saves environmental data: temp, humidity, soil moisture, density (smoke alarm) and hi/low values for 1 plant.
  • RGB LCD displays the environmental data.
  • LEDs on the case that identify Temp, Humidity, Soil Moisture, & Smoke Alarms.
  • LED on the case & Audio alert for smoke alarm.
  • Controls exhaust fan, lights, & water atomizer (humidifier). Can be disabled.
  • Humidifies the air if humidity is too low. Can be disabled.
  • Saves environmental data to local storage every 15 min.
  • Has a mobile app (Blynk) that monitors the environment & displays alarms if any are present.
  • Text alerts for temp, humidity, soil moisture, & smoke alarms. Can be disabled if not used.
  • Email alerts for temp, humidity, soil moisture, & smoke alarms. Can be disabled if not used.
  • More features to come!
  • Still a WIP (work in progress). I will notify when project is public ready!!
