I first came up with the idea of a portable greenhouse you can move around at night when I wanted to make a way to have a small garden in a box with monitored Temperature and Humidity.

So, its late at night and I want to go to a store to get these supplies, so I manage to get my mom to bring me at night. We got the supplies and I started to research. It took me a while to get the right code and right schematics due to wire shorts, but I eventually cracked the code and here I am sharing this/it with you guys here at Instructables.com!

Supplies

A plastic box with a hinge

Plants that fit the box ( your choice )

Mist spray to control inside temp (optional)

Arduino UNO

LCD screen

DHT11 sensor

Jumper wires

Bread board

Schematics!

OK, so now that you're ready with the supplies and etc, make sure you follow ALL the steps that are shown in this schematic, I had a few wire shorts but then I figured it out after having the right pin placement.

Code!

Here's the code! :

Awesome! You are almost done! Now, make sure you have a good space to light in.

In my project, I added a mist bottle with tubes connected to the greenhouse to "transport" water to the greenhouse, and also I used mist to keep the humidity the way I liked it. * I CONNECTED THE BREADBOARD ON TOP OF THE BOARD SO THE LCD SCREEN IS VISIBLE * But really though, you choose where to place the electronics. Feel free to use my placement as an example!
