I made this little machine to water the tomato plants while I'm away on vacation. It uses a Raspberry Pi computer with an electric motor from the "camjam edukit 3". The Raspberry Pi runs a little python program to run the motor to get water flowing, then sleep a few seconds, then run the motor backwards to stop the water again. It works! 🎉
