The hardware is built around a NodeMCU, which is an Arduino-compatible microcontroller with integrated WiFi. This is connected to a simple analog soil moisture sensor that's inserted into the soil itself. The moisture sensor came with a little circuit to convert the analog signal to a digital one, but it never worked so we threw it away.

The arduino code takes a reading every hour and sends it to the app on Glitch, where it gets stored in a SQLite database. Once a week a cleanup job is triggered by [cron-job.org](https://cron-job.org) to remove readings older than 90 days from the database.
