Personally, I like spending time watering my plants. It is very relaxing and allows me time to unwind and forget about any daily stresses or whatnot. But no matter what, there are always those times when other things come up and we can't be there to water plants when needed. That's where a great device like this would most definitely come in handy. I would advise people to familiarize themselves with it, to get the hang of it and make sure they're using it correctly, before leaving it to do its job. It looks simple enough. Have you patented it, or applied for any patents? (Not that I know anything about patents...) Just asking questions. I'd hate to see someone coming along and trying to copy it.

I'll most definitely be keeping my eye on this product. Very interesting.

How does it monitor soil moisture? Is there a probe positioned deep in the pot? How much?

@ToMMyBoY69 I definitely think to that plant watering is very relaxing and calming. It is also important to monitor the growth. But problems come when you aren't home all day long. Plants wilt rapidly.. Like my tomatoes in front of my house. So I've developed this small plant watering device :) I think is very handy. But I need a lot of support from the crowd because the plastic injection molds for the Daisy.si enclosure is very expensive stuff.

q:Have you patented it, or applied for any patents?
a: yeah, it's patented here in Slovenia but I don't think that will help a lot. It's quite expensive. If I had lots of money, I would rather invest in the plastic injection mold and start production. But I still have a lot of another ideas for gardening!

@tapla great question! I know what do you thinking about. Now are the electrodes 8cm long - ~3inches. But I've already made new solution (capacitive&resistive sensor probe) which will measure moisture from between 5-7cm deep in the soil. I have also plan to improve design if campaign is successful.

Thanks for your answers! It's great.
