If you want to construct it all yourself, I can give a tip to use SHT21 or SHT71 as an easy way to measure humidity and temperature.
Very affordable! The SHT21 cost only $5.00; the SHT71 costs around $28.00. I couldn't tell much difference in the specs for the two devices, except the 21 has 6 pins and the 71 has 4 pins. Unless I discover a major advantage of the 71 over the 21, I'll use the SHT21. The low cost is good news, since I'll be making at least 24 probes. Thanks for the info.
