Default Grow computer

Hi All. I'm designing a computer to automate my garden. I'm looking for
input as to what it should do. At present, the design includes for each
plant:
a timer to start/stop watering
a soil moisture sensor to start/stop watering
a spectrum analyzer to look at plant colors
The unit will operate water valves and dispense fertilizer (probably built
in). The software will be different for different plants.
Any input will be appreciated. Thanks
Larry
