Because Blumat exists, and there's something incredibly elegant in how these things can adjust dripping or pull water from a container without any electronics, and depending on the version either with a single moving part or no moving parts at all.
- iorrus 5y agoI’ve tried both blumat and arduino style watering, in the end the water can is the simplest and most reliable. Sometimes technology doesn’t enhance things e.g. the soil moisture sensor gets wet, doesn’t give good readings, hard to calibrate etc. Blumats are very sensitive to tuning mistakes, can dump gallons on a plant in a few hours and don’t distribute the water well but only water one small spot
