I currently have no home automation in my home, but I do have a number of apple devices.

I am going to be gone for a few months, and would like the ability to turn on a 2 amp 120v device once per week for about 30 minutes. It would be fine if it turned on/off at the same time every week. It is not required that I have the ability to turn it on/off remotely … but I do have internet available.

What hardware would accomplish this small project easily?

      I just want to trickle some water to some plants once per week. All I need is an outlet that can control the source power. It is a request from my wife so they do not perish while away.

    This is something you could accomplish with a very inexpensive 24-hour timer. While available year around, with the holidays coming, they are usually on sale.
