which i found following an openhab forum post after an evenings googling on the subject.
I have a wired arduino version already in place but wired? in this day and age?
I had been planning on an esp8266-12 solution, but the practical problems of waterproofing and power supply (batteries) and my very basic electronics skills/understanding would result in a relatively huge box and monthly bulk battery charging and a high cost per plant pot unit. where these things cost about a tenner are tiny and run 12months on a single 3v coin cell.

What i could use is a few pointers as to how to best log the data i gather, my default is a csv record in a text file on a shared drive
Also is there a neat mechanism to retain 'current values' between scheduled runs of my python script? again my default option is a text file.
Cheers..
