With this kit, you'll build a controller that reads DHT22 humidity\/temperature and MH-Z19B CO2 levels, then switches on a humidifier relay when humidity dips below 85% and activates a fan relay when CO2 exceeds 800 ppm. This is a hands-on automation project for school biology labs, B.Tech agriculture majors, or your own small-scale mushroom farm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat You'll Build\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA complete Arduino-based environmental controller for mushroom fruiting chambers. The system displays real-time sensor data on an OLED screen and uses two 5V relays to independently control a humidifier and exhaust fan. You'll calibrate trigger thresholds to maintain 80-90% humidity and keep CO2 under 1000 ppm - exactly what oyster and button mushrooms need to initiate pin formation and grow healthy fruiting bodies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat You'll Learn\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInterface DHT22 digital humidity sensor and capture precise readings with less than 2% error\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInterrogate the MH-Z19B NDIR CO2 sensor over serial to measure carbon dioxide in real time\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eImplement hysteresis logic to avoid relay chattering when sensor values hover near thresholds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProtect relay coils with flyback diodes and filter noise with capacitors for reliable field operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKit Contents\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eComponent\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eQuantity\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eArduino Uno R3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ex1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDHT22\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ex1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMH-Z19B CO2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ex1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5V Relay Module\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ex2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.96in OLED\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ex1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1N4007 Diode\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ex5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10k?

Standard cultivation guides recommend 80-90% humidity and under 1000 ppm CO2 for oyster mushrooms; button mushrooms often need 85-95% humidity.

You can extend the code to write DHT22 and CO2 data to an SD card module or transmit over Bluetooth, making it suitable for long-term mushroom farm monitoring or academic project documentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eIs the MH-Z19B sensor pre-calibrated?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe sensor performs automatic baseline calibration over 24 hours. For immediate use, you can run the included zero-point calibration sketch-just expose the sensor to fresh outdoor air for 10 minutes, and it will reset to 400 ppm. This ensures your fruiting chamber triggers are accurate from day one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"kit-description\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eDHT22 + CO2 sensor trigger humidifier relay and fan relay when conditions match mushroom fruiting trigger.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch4\u003eWhat's in this kit\u003c\/h4\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/uno-r3-ch340g-atmega328p-board-arduino-compatible\"\u003eArduino Uno R3\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/dht22-temperature-humidity-sensor-module-accurate-readings\"\u003eDHT22\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMH-Z19B CO2\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/4-channel-relay-board-for-esp32-30-pin-5v-control\"\u003e5V Relay Module\u003c\/a\u003e x2\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/096in-oled-display-128x64-i2cspi-for-arduino-raspberry-pi\"\u003e0.96in OLED\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/diode-variety-pack-1n4007-1n4148-1n5819-zener-assortment\"\u003e1N4007 Diode\u003c\/a\u003e x5\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/resistor-variety-pack-100-pcs-10-values-14w-carbon-film\"\u003e10k?
