Hi Everybody!

Could you, please, tell me if the Grove Capacitive Moisture Sensore is working with the Grovepi system?

There is no support if I am right, that issue I could probably handle, but is it possible to use it with Grovepi at all?

Thanks in advance!

Looks compatible - even an example that will work but the values may differ.

Plug into A0, and run moisture sensor python example

I have RPI 4 and GrovePi+ together with capacitive soil moisture sensor (corrosion resistant).
When I run the python program the value show 700~
Should be showing 0 when in open air? and show 500~ in soil (wet)
I dont understand why? Can someone help me?
