Soil Moisture Sensor
A soil moisture sensor can read the amount of moisture present in the soil surrounding it. It is ideal for monitoring garden, or your plant’s water level. This is a must have tool for a connected garden.
This sensor uses the two probes to pass current through the soil, and then it reads that resistance to get the moisture level. More water makes the soil conduct electricity more easily (less resistance), while dry soil conducts electricity poorly (more resistance).
It will be helpful to remind you to water your indoor plants or to monitor the soil moisture in your garden. The IO Expansion Shield is the perfect shield to connect this senor to Arduino.
The new soil moisture sensor uses Immersion Gold which protects the nickel from oxidation.

The oxygen sensor uses the ultrasonic velocity difference between upstream and downstream to measure oxygen concentration. This cutting edge ultrasonic technology enables small size, stable, high accuracy, low cost sensor module, long life span (>5 years). In addition, there is no need foe routine calibration.
Water detection sensor is used to detect water leak, water level or rains. This is obtained by having a series of parallel wires exposed traces. The sensor traces have a weak pull-up resistor of 1 MΩ. The resistor will pull the sensor trace value high until a drop of water shorts the sensor trace to the grounded trace.
The analog signal output can be read directly to arduino
The Chirp! Plant Watering Alarm is a new device from wemakethings that helps extend the life of your plant by reminding you to water it. This plant water alarm is essentialy a moisture sensor with built-in coin battery and sound alarm. Chirp is a plant watering alarm – as simple as that. You put it into the soil near a plant and it emits a tiny chirp (sharp sound) when the soil is dry, reminding you to water the plant. Alternatively, Chirp can work as an I2C soil moisture sensor.
