Greenhouse Climate Monitor Kit with Arduino Uno + Sensors
Greenhouse Climate Monitor Kit with Arduino Uno — Your Plant’s Personal Weather Station
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Imagine walking into your greenhouse and instantly knowing if your plants are feeling heat stress or a dangerous chill — not just the air temperature. This kit transforms an Arduino Uno, a precision DHT22 sensor, and a crystal-clear 16x2 LCD into a compact climate monitor that calculates the “feels like” temperature right where your crops are growing. Whether it’s for a CBSE science exhibition, an ATL tinkering lab, or a home agritech experiment, you’ll learn to blend sensor data with real-world environmental formulas that farmers and meteorologists rely on.
What You'll Build
A standalone greenhouse monitor that reads temperature and relative humidity every two seconds. The Arduino runs the Rothfusz heat index equation, combining both readings into a single number that reflects how hot it truly feels. The code is also structured to accept wind speed data — from a simulated input or a future external anemometer — and compute wind chill, displaying an apparent temperature on the I2C-driven LCD. You’ll end up with a battery‑powered device you can place among seedlings or mount inside a polyhouse to catch early signs of weather stress.
What You'll Learn
- Interfacing the DHT22 temperature and humidity sensor with Arduino using a one‑wire protocol
- Driving a 16x2 character LCD via an I2C backpack to drastically reduce wiring
- Implementing Rothfusz heat index and wind chill formulas in C++ code
- Designing a neat breadboard circuit that can be enclosed later for field use

Who This Kit Is For
Students of CBSE Class 9‑12 preparing sensor‑based science exhibits, B.Tech ECE/EEE freshers wanting a quick win with Arduino, and ATL Tinkering Lab mentors who need a ready‑to‑go environmental project. If you’re a hobbyist eyeing a small polyhouse or a kitchen garden, this beginner‑friendly kit gives you a concrete measurement tool without soldering a single joint. Designed with India’s agri‑curiosity in mind — from Smart India Hackathon teams to NIT/VIT mini‑project groups.
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.
Can this kit measure actual wind speed?
The kit does not include an anemometer, but the provided sketch is ready to accept wind speed input. You can simulate wind velocity using a potentiometer (not included) to see how wind chill alters the apparent temperature reading on the LCD.
Is the DHT22 sensor accurate enough for a real greenhouse?
Yes, the DHT22 provides ±0.5°C accuracy and ±2% RH, which is excellent for spotting temperature trends. For harsh outdoor environments, the same Arduino code can later work with a weather‑shielded sensor via the same interface.
Does the LCD display both temperature and apparent temperature?
Out of the box, the code shows apparent temperature, a single number that blends heat index and wind chill. By tweaking the sketch, you can cycle through temperature, humidity, and apparent temperature using a push button (not included).
Can I power it with a USB cable instead of a battery?
Absolutely. The Arduino Uno can be powered via USB from a laptop, power bank, or USB adapter, which is perfect for indoor testing. The included 9V battery snap gives you portability when moving the monitor inside a greenhouse.
