A system (110) for monitoring growth conditions of a plurality of plant containers (112) is disclosed. The system (110) has a transport system (118) for transporting the plant containers (112). Each plant container (112) comprises at least one growing medium (114) and preferably at least one plant specimen (116). The system (110) further comprises at least one measurement position (130) having at least one contactless capacitive humidity sensor (132). The system (110) is adapted to successively transport the plant containers (112) to and from the measurement position (130). The system (110) is further adapted to measure the humidity of the growing medium (114) of the plant containers (112) in the measurement position (130) by using the contactless capacitive humidity sensor (132).
