I`m new to electrical engineering, so it's probably a newbie problem.

I'm using a wall power supply(5V-2A) to power the DC Motor(www.dx.com/p/hsyy01-water-pump-motor-w-hose-white-silver-236808#.VqvzTfkrKHs) and the Attiny85.

A C1 470uF to make the power more stable. I don't if is necessary but helped.

A D1 green led to show if it's on.

A reset button connected to ground to reset(Duh).

One relay(833H-1C-C) connected to the digital pin 0 of the attiny to turn the motor on and off.

Two rotational potentiometer connected to two analog pins(2,3) to decide how much time the mini water pump will be on(0-1023 to 1s-30s) and the other to compare to the humidity sensor to decide how much dry the soil will be when the motor will be turn on.

And one humidity sensor. www.dx.com/p/soil-humidity-moisture-detection-sensor-module-blue-black-white-200142#.VqwBW_krKHs

#include "kPot.h" // my library, just analogReads

#define HUMIDITY_PIN 1 //humidity sensor
#define LEVEL_PIN 3 //rotational potentiometer
#define TIMER_PIN 2 //rotational potentiometer
#define MOTOR_PIN 0 //connected to the relay switch

kPot humiditySensor = kPot(HUMIDITY_PIN, 10); //(pin, average of 10 reads)
kPot levelPot = kPot(LEVEL_PIN, 10);
kPot timerPot = kPot(TIMER_PIN, 10);

int humidity = 0;
int level = 0;
int timer = 0;

void setup() {
  pinMode(MOTOR_PIN, HIGH);  

  humidity = humiditySensor.Read();
  level = levelPot.Read();
  timer = timerPot.Read();
}

void loop() {
  humidity = humiditySensor.Read();
  level = levelPot.Read();
  
  timer = timerPot.Read();
  timer = map(timer, 0, 1023, 1000, 30000); //1s to 30s
  

  if(humidity < level){
    digitalWrite(MOTOR_PIN, HIGH);
    delay(timer);
    digitalWrite(MOTOR_PIN, LOW);
  }

  delay(300000); // 5min Update
}

The problem: The mini water pump turn on and don't stop, I removed the reset button to make sure that wasn't reseting, didn't resolved. Maybe the motor is getting all the current and reseting the attiny. Probably I have to put a diode somewhere, but as I said, I'm newbie, so...

thanks.

Maybe the motor is taking too much current and reseting the attiny?
