Hi all I have a new widget request ๐Ÿ™‚ It could be really cool with a widget that could display the sensor values from plant related sensors like soil moisture, light, air humidity and nutrient levels from a given plant. You would then add one instance of the widget for each plant. In the widget you would be able to select plant type and this would ensure correct thumbnail and preferred levels so you can easily see if you need to water, move or feed the plant. I came across this video that gives some nice inspirational ideas: [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/b/9/b9e375c8bd89d727dc0f52891899bda3fbdfacb1.jpeg "Mijia plant sensor in Home Assistant! Now I can FINALLY keep house plants!") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=foqw35K4u90) Remember to upvote this idea if you agree ๐Ÿ˜€ ---

Not sure which brand/make you have, but the Homey-app for my Xiaomi Mi Flora plant sensor provides such a widget: ![IMG_1660](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/d/3/d3cc4daf5bb010636e5e2df43d833ae3ca8aa4b0.jpeg) ---

Looks nice ๐Ÿ™‚ But it lacks some of the features I mentioned. It would be nice to see a Homey widget that has these features where you can select sensors from any connected soil moisture sensor device. ---

Just looked at the app you mentioned and it does not have a widget. > **[Xiaomi Mi Flora](https://homey.app/da-dk/app/com.mi.flora/Xiaomi-Mi-Flora/)** > > Track every need of your plants and flowers What app are you using for your sensor? ---

I am using that app ๐Ÿ˜€. ![IMG_5624](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/f/c/fc2a27b35140c9e273b55cd0d81d4059fc1c70b6.jpeg) Apparently the app store does not indicate it has a widget. @Koktail perhaps you could update the widget info of your app in the app store? I have the following version installed: ![IMG_5623](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/6/6/66b50c1473717f92bd17e7f73e75589eb81a87fc.jpeg) ---

So basically what you see is simply text, in html format, with links to logic variables. Those variables I set up before to create my own energy oversight, so I only had to put them in a dashboard to create this. This is just early stageโ€ฆ one evening of work. But I really like the fact that even html table coding works. So I got this right now. ![17377208661303646221067649483483](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/f/4/f4e194c1b09a1c81727f71da1a000c340932ed46.png) ---

The DataVista app can be useful as well ![1000042356](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/8/a/8a251b82e52a1c2e38f13d1adceef969f125e15b.jpeg) ---

@Peter_Kawa: Nice of you to create examples of different options available. There is something for everyone ๐Ÿ˜€. By the way: how did you manage to remove the refresh icon in the the Enhanced Device Widgetโ€™s status widget (top right hand corner)? ---

Thanks! Refresh icon is an option in the test version of the Enhanced Device Widget app ---
