I'm not sure my ~600 sq ft apartment really needs automation. It's pretty simple and manageable. Maybe Apple has dreamed up a delightful solution for a problem

I'm not sure my ~600 sq ft apartment really needs automation. It's pretty simple and manageable. Maybe Apple has dreamed up a delightful solution for a problem I don't realize I have. My garden however is a complex mess that could benefit from automation.

Look into arduino + gardening.

I'm with you on that. I have three $70ish irrigation timers that are battery powered, not always predictable and an absolute pain to schedule. Wish I had the skillset or contacts to create a wirelessly controlled irrigation timer. Track watering history, pause schedules if rain is forecast, etc. I even wondered if you could recharge a system like this by a little low-friction turbine after the valve? And solar as a back-up?
