As my garden's size quickly surpassed my apartment's ability to accommodate, I realized that I would need to find a surrogate gaden space. Not being able to travel to this remote location frequently enough means that many fuctions would need to be automated, or done by a third party (while minimizing the chance for human error--and responsibility). This system will allow myltiple gardens to be remotely monitored, and allow customized instruction to the novice gardener wishing to grow food (or other plants) with the security of knowing that there is always an informed central command to help them through theprocess.
