Home Assistant / Homebridge pluginWorksGood soil moisture device; values passed to HomeKit via Home Assistant or a Homebridge plugin

I use the Netro Whisperer 2 for exactly this purpose. It isn't a Homekit compatible device, but I do have it in Homekit using an integration with Home Assistant, that then passes the values to Homekit. There's also a Homebridge plugin that will do the same thing - https://www.npmjs.com/package/homebridge-netro-whisperer The device itself is really good, great quality and seems very accurate. It is expensive though and not sure it's going to be an affordable solution for 14 pots.

Not workingPlugin incompatible with Netro v2 API

I tried to add my Netro Whisperer 2 to homebridge using this plugin, but adding my serial number didn't work, and neither did replacing that with my API key. It appears this plugin is not compatible with Netro's new v2 APIs

Each row is one report from a plugin’s GitHub issues, pull requests, discussions, wiki or docs, or from r/homebridge. Check the date and the linked thread before you buy.

In ReReHome

Once a Homebridge plugin publishes it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Homebridge bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
