I guess there is many ways to make my greenhouse watering automation more efficient and stable so i make a shout and see what you got(i know youre alot more skilled at this than me 
)
The system:
I got 12 boxes with a humidity sensor in each and when the level gets low i want to start filling by opening a valve.
function:
I want to fill slow so the sensor got time to feel the change so i don´t overfill. Therefor i have two variables , runtime and a delay between runtime. ofc also what to what level of humidity to fill up to.
one condition is also that only one box can be filled at once so i can mesaure how mutch water each box uses.
so this is what i have done so far and one for each box:
some hate the looping timetrig, and i know why but its a easy solution
hope you have something good to share
