How to use a Soil Moisture Sensor with Micro:bit

The Micro:bit is great for small portable projects like a soil moisture sensor. In this tutorial, we will walk through how to program a Micro:bit to make a reliable and consistent soil moisture sensor that will give consistent readings. The goal of this project is to create a program that will give consistent readings between plants. We will be using MakeCode to program the Micro:bit.
