Shane, the feeding system looks like it's comming along great.

Were you able to get the code I sent you for the EF32ZG working? What exactly are you having issues with? I'l be glad to help any way I can.

I am just starting to move over to mbed as well. I got some sample applications from the mbed.org site running yeterday. I'm going to try to port my existing EFM32ZG code over to an mbed project today. I am now convinced that the RTOS path may be very helpful in getting some of the peripheral devices on these MCUs up and running.

Cheers,

Rick

You should not have any problems with moving the plants by hand.

The only real advantage for an automated system is if you plan to leave it unattended or remote controlled.

We typically only move our plants about once a week on our enclosed porch. The plants seem to thrive just fine.

Hi Shane,

What MCU do you want help with coding, I could lend a hand if it is arduino but I wont be much use with the Wireless starter kit programming.
