Aquaflower  is a project I worked on towards the end of my junior year of high school, which I continued working on a few weeks before going into my senior year of high school. Like the rest of my projects, I love to make things that have a purpose and a use in the world. I first look for problems to solve, and think about how they can be solved, and why. In this case, the problem was simply death. My family loves to go on vacation, but we always have to leave something behind, and if we leave our plants behind with no care, they will die without water. For my solution, I made an automatic waterer for our plants. Using a soil moisture sensor I made from scratch, it uses electricity and conduction with water to read the soil moisture level of the soil we are using. When the soil drops to the value I set it to, it will think that the plant is too dry and will flow electricity to the waterpump turning it on and watering the plant. So the plant doesn't get overwatered, I set another value if the soil is too wet, and when it reaches this value it will turn the water pump back off. Now when we go on vacations, we don't have to worry about our plants dying because of no water.
