What is PlantHub?
PlantHub is an open, AI-powered plant care platform. It runs on cheap ESP32 boards you flash from your browser, watches soil moisture, light, temperature, and humidity in real time, factors in weather forecasts, and waters or vents your plants when they actually need it — explaining every decision in plain English.
It works for a single houseplant on a desk, a balcony herb garden, a multi-zone greenhouse, or a small commercial grow. There is no lock-in: firmware is open source, the API is documented, and you own your data.
