Hi David--

Last year I got a SARE grant to work with an electronics engineer to develop exactly this type of alarm.  Right now you can create a Do-It-Yourself version by following the instructions at http://farmhack.net/tools/fido-greenhouse-monitoring-text-message-alerts .  I built one myself, with limited electronics skills, for $125 in parts.  
Louis Thiery who worked with me on the project is currently developing similar tools that will be available for purchase, his web site is http://apitronics.com/

Subject: [Market-farming] Greenhouse Temp Alarm


Can anyone recommend a greenhouse Temperature alarm that can text alerts via cell when temps are out of a specified range?  No land based internet connection available within about 500 ft. Preferably under $300?
