In combining my interest in gardening, sustainable agriculture, and my talents in programming/electronics I've implemented the Spark Core as a hobby project to monitor the following environmental variables around a plant:

• Air temperature
  
• Soil temperature
  
• Humidity
  
• Soil moisture
  
• Light
  

The core publishes this data to the spark cloud which relays it to a NodeJS server via a webhook. The server stores the data in MongoDB and provides a web interface via Jade/AngularJS/RevealJS to view live data via Server-Sent Events as well as plots of historical data via n3-line charts.

Future plans include:

• Visualized live data on web page
  
• Solar powered
  
• Automated / web triggered watering
  
• Design pretty / weatherproof enclosure
