Sometimes you have to build your own tools. Soil moisture sensor and arduino-based reader. Only took my about a day. It was my first arduino project and I even wrote the code! The moisture sensor is a Vegetronix VH-400.

Just bending leaf bits today.

Last day up of photosynthetic measurements for this round. Big day of harvesting and making mechanical and anatomical measurements tomorrow.

The things we do for science.
