Greenhouse Soil Manager Kit v8
Greenhouse Soil Manager Kit v8 – Automate Irrigation with Raspberry Pi 5 & Weather API
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Build a full-fledged greenhouse irrigation controller that reads soil moisture, temperature, humidity, and live weather data to adapt watering schedules for your chosen crop. The Raspberry Pi 5 runs a decision tree you’ll program, deciding precisely when to open solenoid valves. Perfect for agriculture robotics projects or smart farming experiments.
What You'll Build
You’ll assemble a self-contained system that monitors soil and air conditions across your greenhouse, pulls weather forecasts via API, and uses decision logic to automatically control irrigation valves. Connect multiple soil sensors and environmental sensors, store historical data on the included NVMe SSD, and watch your plants thrive with zero guesswork.
What You'll Learn
- Integrate soil moisture, temperature, humidity, and pressure sensors with Raspberry Pi 5
- Read and process real-time weather data from a public API
- Implement a decision tree algorithm to control irrigation relays based on sensor thresholds
- Store and analyze sensor logs on NVMe storage for long-term tracking

Who This Kit Is For
B.Tech ECE/EEE/CS students building smart agriculture prototypes, Smart India Hackathon teams tackling precision irrigation challenges, and ATL tinkering labs advancing from sensors to full IoT automation. CBSE Class 12 students with an electronics or CS elective will also find the decision-tree logic directly applicable.
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 to launch the AI companion trained on this kit, or message us on WhatsApp. The assistant knows every wiring detail and Python snippet you’ll need.
Can I use this kit for other crops or seasons?
Absolutely. The decision tree logic can be modified to accommodate different moisture thresholds and weather patterns for any plant type. You’ll learn to adapt the Python script easily.
Does this kit require an internet connection?
The weather API requires internet to fetch forecasts. However, you’ll also program an offline fallback that relies solely on sensor readings to trigger irrigation.
What programming language is used?
All code is written in Python, using libraries for sensor I/O, API requests, and relay control. The AI companion guides you line by line.
Greenhouse — Soil sensors and weather API feed a decision tree on Pi 5 — irrigation valve schedule optimised for crop type and season.
