Morning glory in a bucket on a balcony. It’s watered automatically by a solar powered gizmo I made too.

    1.) Your automatic watering setup is DOPE.

    2.) Hope the morning glory doesn’t escape. I have a problem with it in my garden and I didn’t ever plant it to begin with…

    OP here responding to popular demand.

    The solar waterer uses a 5v solar panel, a dfrobot charge controller and a Wemos D1 Mini clone board driving a relay. My proudest achievement is the uptime shown in the last pic. 55 days since last reboot and that was an intentional update of the tasmota firmware. All on solar and a 10500mah battery, no external power.
