It measure water moisture, EC is a algorythium

I purchased this unit.

1) It does actually measure Water volume!
2) EC is a algorythium its not a sensor on the device that returns an accurate reading.Its calculated on when you fertilized the plant which you input manually. If you play with the day you update the app manually you will see its an algorithm as opposed to the information on the website, which is misleading

3) Light ppfd or joules is not correctly measuring anything. In fact along side a lux of ppfd reader this unit is no where near close to either

Basically all this is, is a moisture meter sensor every calculation outside of that is a algorithm basically the website insinuates that this device is a power multi sensor which is it far from.

We are sorry to hear that.
It is a misunderstanding to equate the fertilisation curve with an EC meter. We use EC internally together with other measured values to recalculate the due date. So if you change the input on the same day, a different due date will of course be calculated based on this input. However, with each new measurement, the due date is adjusted according to the analysis.

We do not measure lux values, but use PAR and calculate the DLI from this. A comparison with lux is therefore not meaningful. The light sensor records a light spectrum for red, green, blue and infrared, not just the brightness. Some artificial light sources do not cover the entire spectrum, and if the light calibration is not carried out correctly, the measurements may be inaccurate.

I loved my first batch and I bought some some for the rest of my plants

These are really useful to help keep an eye on the plant’s health without stressing and guessing. They do what they advertise they do.

Wonderful product I would recommend

Sensors and software work

The Fyta plant sensors simply work, unlike their Chinese counterparts, and the software support is great. I miss an iPad version though.

It is very good to know the condition…

It is very good to know the condition of the plant.
It would be better if the measured value could be used on PC.
It also requires a measurement of electrical conductivity personally

Great product, great service, but not fully plug and play

The products are reliable and gives me a whole new array of information on my house plants that otherwise would have been out of reach. It is impressive how the hub and the beams take your understanding of the plants to a new level. It takes more time and effort to set up the system than FYTAs product information suggests, and, in my case at least, it was necessary to draw a lot on FYTAs help center. The assistance and help you can get from FYTAs help centre is excellent, and they are always ready to answer questions. But it is also necessary to help you solve the difficulties that you run into during the installation. All in all, once installed, it is a great product for plant owners who want to see their plants thrive. Certainly worth the money and the effort.

Good idea!

Absolutely love the idea behind your products - but could not get them to work. I have a background in sensors, and have a setup from a competitor (onset hobonet), but just could not get the info that your ads describe.

Good luck! I really hope you guys can succeed. It would be really great!

We are sorry about your bad experience. To be honest, we don't understand your problem. You set up the sensors and hub correctly, they sending data and except low moisture, everything else seems fine.
So please come back to us via mail hello@fyta.de or feedback function in the app, so we can solve your issues.

Plant savior

I would say that, I could save my plants life. My overall experience has been amazing 😍 with so much contents on how to care my plants especially the videos. I can already say I am becoming plant mommy . I would say the customer service was topnotch. I loved the way they explained the details of each measurements it educated me a lot about plants. Lots of love Oldenburg ❤️

Nice solution let down by a poor app

The solution is in principal nice. The app (Android at least) is a quite bad indeed. As someone who runs development teams it is even more infuriating. Constant crashes / log outs, poorly thought out logic, meaningless notifications (seems to have been addressed in the last update to make them more specific). Inability to live check plants without Bluetooth even with a hub. So unless the hub is passive, why? The salinity and fertilization model does indeed seem way off and results in plants stating their hungry when soil samples suggest / PH tests they are fine. Sharing plants was a nice update but my partners account was wiped and she can't login.

Hi, thanks for your review.
Our developers have some more questions about the crashes, so we will get back to you.
We are aware about the issue with salinity and we have developed a more holistic way for the future, which will come with one of the next updates.
Due to the fact that a remote live mode doesn't really make sense and would lead into more latency and unnecesary battery drain we don't provide this function.
We don't wipe or delete old user profiles, so we can't understand the problem with sharing your plants to your partner.

amazing concept, does not work (for me)

Spent 200+ euro on an amazing concept, though it is not working.

Extremely spotty connections between app and device. Wifi hub installed and even have been at home regularly throughout the past weeks, still all plants are showing 1.5-2 days since last data. Live Mode has not even worked once.

I love the app content and the general concept. Though it is absolutely not working for me since it is not reliable.

I want to be unburdened by this system, not have an extra headache on my hands
