This is a custom component for Home Assistant that adds support for the Miracle Grow AeroGarden Wifi hydroponic gardens.
This was developed without collaboration with AeroGarden, and as of publication, there is no documented public API. This implementation was forked from that of ksheumaker after it was declared unmaintained, who in turn took inspiration and code from the code in this forum post by epotex.
Currently, the code is setup to query the AeroGarden servers every 30 seconds.
- Harvest Wifi
(Other models are expected to work, since this queries AeroGarden's cloud service rather than the garden directly. Please confirm success in an issue if you use another model, so that the documentation may be updated.)
This integration is in progress of being added to the default HACS repository. Currently, add this repository as a custom repository, and then search for the "Aerogarden" integration.
Copy custom_components/aerogarden into your Home Assistant config directory.
Your directory structure should look like this:
config/custom_components/aerogarden/__init__.py
config/custom_components/aerogarden/binary_sensor.py
config/custom_components/aerogarden/sensor.py
config/custom_components/aerogarden/light.py
- Restart HA
- Add the following entry to
configuration.yaml:
aerogarden:
username: [EMAIL]
password: [PASSWORD]- Restart HA final time
The component supports multiple gardens, and multiple sensors will be created for each garden. [GARDEN NAME] will be replaced by the garden name in the AeroGarden app.
- light.aerogarden_[GARDEN NAME]_light
- binary_sensor.aerogarden_[GARDEN NAME]_pump

- Investigate the ease of turning on/off the light. See if it can be dimmed with more control.
- Full integration overhaul (See aerogarden-v2 branch)
- integration flow to setup
- Create an aerogarden device
- All calls are done async
