Monitor Seed Germination with Arduino — ATL Soil & Temperature Data Logger Kit

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 seed germination into measurable science. This kit lets young learners build a multi-day data logger that records soil moisture and temperature — exactly the kind of project that shines in ATL Tinkering Labs, CBSE science exhibitions, and school biology investigations. Place the sensors in soil-filled seed trays, run the Arduino Nano, and watch data accumulate on the SD card as seeds sprout (seeds not included).

What You'll Build

A compact environmental monitor that reads two soil moisture levels and ambient temperature at regular intervals, saving timestamped entries to a microSD card. You can compare moisture trends between seed trays, correlate temperature drops with slowed germination, and present hard data instead of guesswork in your science report.

What You'll Learn

• Wiring analog and digital sensors to an Arduino Nano on a breadboard
• Reading DS18B20 one-wire temperature data and capacitive soil moisture values
• Writing sensor log files to an SD card using the Arduino SD library
• Interpreting environmental data to understand plant growth conditions

Why Buy This Kit Instead of Sourcing Parts Separately

Who This Kit Is For

Perfect for ATL Tinkering Lab students exploring agri-tech, CBSE Class 7–10 learners taking science projects beyond charts and posters, and school bio labs wanting a hands-on data module. If you're a young maker preparing for Inspire Awards or simply curious about how technology helps farmers, this kit gives you a real-world start.

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.
