I posted elsewhere on this story about this, but I have a flower garden I like to grow and fiddle with each year, and I'd still be interested in doing something like this Farm Bot too. I don't think I'd purchase one, I'm more interested in building one from scratch (so I appreciate that it's open source), but just seeing what kind of automated vegetable operation I can set up with a raspberry pi, a few servos and some moisture/sunlight sensors has been a project I've wanted to do for a couple summers. Part of the draw is the potential for iterating on it, collecting whatever data might be collectable, adapting it to my environment or what I want to grow, etc. I've got a black thumb for vegetables anyway – that's why I grow flowers instead – so I really don't care if some or all them end up dying because the robot fails.
