I've been slowly converting all of my outdoor lighting to solar and adding more rain barrels for my garden. This got me thinking--what are the rest of you working on? I'd love to see and hear about your projects if you feel like sharing them.

Thanks in advance, I hope you're all having a wonderful day!

We just had a very similar topic here: https://slrpnk.net/post/9408197

But if you are especially interested in gardening: I am currently thinking about how to DIY a simple automated irrigation system for the tomatoes and pepper plants in my little greenhouse so that I can do a camping trip later this summer without them dying.

My Grandparents found a solution to the watering problem, its called Children an Grandchildren...

We are trying to get it automated for them, but without success.

One wonders what automating the child production process would look like . . .

I think robogromo's /c/pigrow might be able to help with this, though it has so many features it might overshoot what you need.
