Arduino Soil Monitor Kit with DS18B20 & SD Logger - Greenhouse Ready
Greenhouse Soil Manager Pro Kit with Arduino Uno - Monitor & Log Soil Moisture and Temperature
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Turn your greenhouse into a data-driven operation. This kit lets you build a weatherproof soil sensing station that records moisture and temperature at precise 15-minute intervals using a DS18B20 sensor and RTC module, then writes the data to a microSD card for analysis. Perfect for agricultural science projects, CBSE practicals, or Smart India Hackathon submissions.
What You'll Build
A self-contained logging device that reads two soil moisture probes and a waterproof DS18B20 temperature sensor, stamps each reading with the real-time clock, and stores them on a microSD card in CSV format. You'll also display live readings on a 0.96-inch OLED screen, giving you instant feedback in the greenhouse.
What You'll Learn
- Interface analog and digital sensors with Arduino Uno
- Log sensor data to SD card with timestamps using DS3231 RTC
- Work with I2C OLED displays for real-time feedback
- Calibrate soil moisture sensors and interpret data for irrigation decisions

Who This Kit Is For
CBSE Class 11-12 students building agriculture tech projects, B.Tech ECE/EEE undergraduates prototyping IoT loggers, hackathon teams (Smart India Hackathon), and ATL Tinkering Lab innovators. Hobbyist greenhouse owners wanting automated, timestamped soil data will also find a ready-to-build solution here.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project - accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Scan the QR code inside the box to launch the AI companion, which walks you through wiring, code upload, and troubleshooting. You can also send a photo on WhatsApp, and our team will guide you back on track.
What data format is stored on the SD card?
The kit logs data in CSV format with columns: date, time, moisture sensor 1, moisture sensor 2, temperature. You can open the file directly in Excel or Google Sheets to graph trends.
How do I power the system for long-term greenhouse use?
For permanent installation, we recommend a 9V DC adapter or a solar panel system. The included 9V battery snap is perfect for portable demo and testing during the build.
Can I add more sensors, like humidity or light?
Yes, the breadboard has space and the AI companion can guide you in extending the circuit. You may need extra resistors or modules, which are available separately on compoden.in.
Greenhouse - Soil moisture + DS18B20 soil temperature logged to SD card every 15 minutes with RTC timestamps.
