Idea - move moisture sensing to the back side of the PCB #155

Hi,

I was thinking if it would be better to move the moisture sensing side to the back of the PCB. This way the phototransistor would face outward and the moisture sensing inward when the parasite is in the pot. It could improve the accuracy of both measurements.
