As I’ve mentioned in several other posts, I think the continual monitoring of conditions in greenhouses and food storage spaces is incredibly important for quality and safety and insightful for any operation. There is a really clever design for a do-it-yourself temperature monitoring system called Fido<\/a>, on the FarmHack <\/a>site.\u00a0 It uses an Arduino <\/a>control and electronics platform, a cheap cell phone, and a few other pretty inexpensive pieces to do the job.<\/p>\n

“A farmer-built electronic tool that can monitor greenhouse temperature, record greenhouse data, and alert the farmer to problems in the greenhouse via cell phone text message. This tool will be much more affordable and useful than commercially available greenhouse alarms (which rely on landline connections or internet connections, which usually aren\u2019t available in the greenhouse).<\/em>“<\/p>\n

I’ll be trying to add RH monitoring to this soon, and will update the post when that is complete.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
