Many of us were not gifted with a green thumb. Sadly, many of us were born with the ability to kill plants faster than we can remember to water them. Plants can’t exactly tell you when they need nourishment or water, which is why the Koubachi WiFi Plant Sensor and App is so helpful.

Simply stick the Koubachi into the soil, and it will let you know when it’s time to water the plants, when they’re getting a little too much sun, or if they’re getting a little too toasty. Plants have feelings too you know. If you want your plants to be happy and healthy, this is a great way to learn how to care for them. After a while, I’d imagine you would know the schedule of your greenery so well that you won’t need this $169 sensor. However, if you’re brand new to plants, or just haven’t had luck with them in the past, this may be a good starting place.
