A scale built for growing.

Place a potted plant on the scale to monitor soil moisture and gain insights into the water movement through the grow. Tare (zero) points can be set to quantify soil conditions such as "too wet", "too dry" or "just right." 

Growbies scales are also useful for measuring harvests. They can be used to track the fluid level in a vessel. Along with mass, temperature is included in the data stream.

Water spray and dust resistant for indoor and outdoor use. The tripod topology is inherently stable. It works well on varied terrain.

Rechargeable via USB-C. 

Both the device firmware and the gateway software were written by Growbies and released as open source.
