Product Description
The EasyBloom Plant Sensor helps you grow a perfect garden without all of the guesswork. If
you’ve ever wondered, “Is this corner too hot, too dark, or too dry?”, EasyBloom is for you. You will begin to
garden with confidence. Instead of wondering which plants will thrive where, you will know for sure with
EasyBloom.
This ingenious in-ground sensor reads and analyzes growing conditions in specific spots inside your home or in your
yard. It measures sunlight, temperature, humidity, soil moisture and drainage. It even uses the same technology
used on NASA's Mars Phoenix mission to measure the soil.
After a minimum of 24 hours, you just plug it into your computer USB port and watch as it turns readings into
recommendations, listing plants sure to flourish in your exact environment. Narrow your search more by specifying
desired bloom color or season, plant height, drought tolerant, deer resistant, and other features.
How It Works
1. Set It
Plug the EasyBloom Plant Sensor into a USB port--you
will be brought to your My EasyBloom Dashboard page. Put the sensor into Recommend or Monitor mode.
2. Place Sensor
Place the sensor in a spot where you would like
to grow a plant, or adjacent to the plant that needs monitoring. Let the EasyBloom Plant Sensor gather a ‘plant's
eye’ view of that location.
3. Plug It In
After 24 hours, plug the sensor into your USB
port. Sensor data is uploaded to the EasyBloom website where algorithms are run that will either recommend a plant
or diagnose what is wrong with an ailing plant.
4. Get Results
When in Recommend mode, the EasyBloom website
will present a set of plants that will thrive in that location. In Monitor mode, you will be told what is going
wrong with a plant with visual cues on how to fix it.
5. Enjoy
Sit back and enjoy flourishing plants.
Customer Reviews Of The
EasyBloom Plant Sensor
Finally someone invented this product! I cannot tell you how many plants I have killed in my lifetime. I never know
if they die because I watered them too much, too little, or if it wasn't getting enough light, etc. Now there is
actually a device that can tell me the answer! Thank you thank you. No more throwing dead plants and $$ down the
drain. Love it!

EasyBloom Launches Gardening into the 21st
Century!
I love my EasyBloom Plant sensor! This product is a dream come true for all the wanna-be gardeners. I can now
finally say good-bye to killing almost all of my plants including several cacti. The sensor was easily activated by
visiting [...]. I went straight to putting my EasyBloom on recommendation mode and then right into the soil in a
small corner in my backyard. So many plants have not survived in this part of my garden. After 24 hours, I now have
a clear plan on what to plant come this spring.
The EasyBloom Plant sensor works great with my Windows Vista. The
Plantsense customer service representative I spoke with was very clear and informative when explaining the three
different modes. BUY this product you will not be disappointed.
By Patty (California)
When I received the EasyBloom Plant Sensor, I was excited because I had been struggling to grow plants on my new
property despite years of gardening experience. This product promised to recommend and monitor my plants to
determine what was going wrong. Unfortunately, it measures nothing more than I could tell by sticking my own finger
in the soil and watching the shadows for a day: moisture and light. Yes, it measures temperature and relative
humidity, but those vary both daily and seasonally and can be figured out by walking out the door. It does not
analyze the soil -- probably the most crucial information that cannot be intuitively known -- for type, fertility,
toxicity, and acidity. You must discover and enter this yourself on the web site.
The monitor setting does basically the same thing, only over a longer time so you can see the moisture and light
fluctuations over a longer period of time; again, it cannot diagnose over- or under-fertilization, incorrect
acidity, compacted or too sandy soil, diseases, or pests, the most common reasons a plant dies. The EasyBloom can
take a snapshot of the location for future reference.
Probably the best part of the device is the web interface that provides detailed information on recommended
plants. Yes, this information can be found online or in a good plant book, but the site shows thumbnail photos of
the plants that can then lead the user to a more detailed description, including care, known pests, height, growing
zones, attractiveness to birds, shape, etc. I really would have liked a "deer resistant" option; maybe they will
add that in the future. Strangely enough, the site does not recommend the plants that *are* thriving in my
landscape.
Beginning gardeners will find this device much more useful than experienced ones since they may not yet know how
to use light conditions (shade, partial shade, afternoon sun, etc.) and soil moisture content to select the proper
plants for an area. Unfortunately, they are also the ones who might over-fertilize or select the wrong plant for
the soil type.
Although the EasyBloom is not comprehensive enough for advanced help, it would make a good housewarming gift for
someone's first home. I'll be the first in line when they upgrade the device to include soil testing and
fertility.
Note: As of this writing, this device is compatible only with Windows. The company says that the Mac version of
the software should be available on December 15, 2008, in time for the holidays.
