All purpose tiny computer, great to do timelapses and remote live cam.
As of now the best all purpose micro computer. You won't use it as a desktop (it has usb and hdmi ports tho), but as a companion for the SuperGreenLab app it will do wonders.
Attach a raspberry pi camera to it, and you have a prefect little wifi camera that connects to the app and the controller for remote live view and daily/weekly timelapses of your plant. Perfect to detect issues before they arise.
In this tutorial we’ll see how to set up a raspberry PI from scratch.
We’ll be using the raspberry pi for things like setting up a live cam.
This guide will work with any raspberry PI models, but we’ll be using a raspberry PI model zero w.
I’m not teaching you anything if I tell you that our plants are like our babies. And just like babies we’d like to keep an eye on them 24/24, even when away from home.
While you shouldn’t overprotect an actual kid, it’s bad for their self confidence, and makes fucked up teenagers; When it comes to plants, having a way to look at it anytime can save you some issues.
The camera we will be setting up is quite simple, it allows you to select the plant you’re monitoring, and will then take a picture every 10 minutes.
Setting up this remote camera will give you two things:
- You’ll have access to the latest taken pic from the app, at any time, from anywhere.
- Daily and weekly timelapses posted to your plant diary.

Way enough for running a raspberry pi with a bit of local storage for pics.
Nothing more than a micro USB charger with enough amps
Best way to have a nice plant is to keep an eye on it!
Just because the camera port is smaller on the rasberry pi zero..
