An inexpensive robotic gantry to screen and control soil moisture for plant experiments
Controlling water content in soil is a recurrent and labor intensive operation on almost any experiment about plant physiology. Here we describe a robotic gantry to measure and control soil moisture in pots that is modular, inexpensive, easy to build, accurate, precise, and reliable. Machines can be...
