A few years ago a graduating student gave me this orchid, and I panicked because I thought I would kill it straight away. So far it has been hanging on. We shall see how long it lasts.

.MSU Biosystems & Agricultural Engineering scientist Younsuk Dong has developed a low-cost irrigation sensor that monitors water-use efficiency. The in-field sensors measure soil moisture, leaf wetness and other environmental conditions. MSU College of Engineering MSU News MSU CANR MSU canr.msu.edu/news/msu-resea…
