Your post says soil humidity but you should clarify a bit more.

If you are looking for sensors that measure air humidity, you can easily use a DHT11, DHT22, or for more precision a HTU21DF. If you don't want them to get wet then simply come up with some sort of enclosure (Tupperware, empty yogurt container, whatever) drill some holes for ventilation and put the lid on, with adequate holes it can still read humidity and remain dry.

If you mean soil moisture, then you can buy one of those moisture sensors (like this https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00AYCNEKW/ref=pd_aw_lpo_328_lp_img_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=G9FJ3BJ3B69VC9XKCVA3) and just... Well... Stick it in the dirt. Done.

If I haven't answered the question then let me know!

Sorry for link formatting, am on mobile and too lazy to look for code.

Thanks! I'm more than happy to answer any question you have about my setup.

So I'm using the RPi and controlling stuff using the Wolfram Language. With one line of code I can turn on/off the lights or read/write to other devices/sensors.

For temp/humidity I'm using the DHT22 sensor.

Hygrometer is this one

And light sensor

I setup some cronjobs to control the lights.

It's still in beta shape. Lights are working but I still need to automate the other sensors.

I'm not using an Android app. What I'm thinking is adding to my code some lines to publish my stats in the Wolfram Cloud so I'll always have access to a log/dashboard online.
