When you're working on IoT, you have to understand a wide range of topics to create a high-quality device.
We've spent over 5 years developing a reliable, accurate, and user-friendly soil moisture sensor, and we'd like to share its applications with you.
Admit it - everyone loves to munch on cabbage, right?

🌧 Watering is critical for cabbage because:
1. Cabbage is 90-92% water 💦
Without enough moisture, it cannot:
- grow a head of cabbage;
- maintain the firmness of its leaves;
- absorb nutrients from the soil properly.
2. Cabbage has a shallow root system 🥬
It takes water from the topsoil, which dries out quickly. Without regular watering, the plant suffers immediately.
3. Lack of water = slow growth 🤕
- The heads become small and loose.
- The leaves wilt and the color fades.
- The crop loses weight and flavor.
4. Watering irregularities cause cracks in the heads 🆘
If there is a drought followed by excessive watering, the head will crack, resulting in a loss of appearance and shelf life.
5. Water is needed for the absorption of fertilizers 🚜
Without moisture, the roots cannot "pull" nutrients. Even with good fertilizer, there will be no effect without water.

Conclusion:
Watering is not just “desirable”, it is the base. Especially in hot and dry weeks. If you want dense, large, juicy cabbages - monitor the humidity.
And the GoodWAN soil moisture sensors will help with this. Data from the sensors is collected on the platform, and also pushed into a convenient telegram bot. So that the sensors are not damaged in the process of working with agricultural machinery - our client made convenient and noticeable posts for them to be installed.
