The Self Watering Plant system is an automated irrigation solution that waters plants based on soil moisture levels detected by a sensor, eliminating the need for human intervention. The system uses an Arduino to control a water motor that activates when moisture levels are low. Future enhancements include soil nutrient monitoring and an Android app for user interaction.

Abstract

Self watering plant system is a automated system implemented to water the

plants automatically. In this self watering plant system no human intervention

is required as every single thing is automated. This is an arduino based system.

In this system, water is supplied to the plant automatically by considering

the input received from the soil moisture sensor. This system is useful when the

user does not have time to water the plants or if the user is not at home for

some days. Plus by using this system the user will not have to remember to

water the plants. The watering process will be automated.


Introduction

The self watering plant system is a system which is fully automated system.

This system will be used for supplying water to the plants when they actually

need it. This will be done by considering the input value received from soil

moisture sensor. According to the input value from the soil moisture sensor, the

moisture level will be checked. If the moisture level is LOW in the soil then it

means that the plant needs water so in this case the motor will be turned ON

automatically through relay which will provide water to the plant. And this

supply of water will be provided until the moisture level becomes HIGH. In

other case, if the moisture level in the soil is already HIGH then the motor will

not be turned ON. In this way, there is no human intervention required in this

system. Without any human intervention the plants will be watered at the right

time when they need water.


Literature Review

Nowadays people don't have time to water the plants as they not at home the

whole day. Or also in their busy schedules they forget to water the plants and

the plants die. So the solution for this is the self watering plant system. The

main goal of this system is to supply water to the plants when they need it. The

problem stated above lead to the development of this system.

In this system the water level in the soil is maintained by automatically

turning the submersible water motor ON and OFF. The motor is turned ON and

OFF by making use of relay.


System Analysis

This self watering plant system comprises of various components such as soil

moisture sensor, relay, water motor pump, arduino and some more.

The soil moisture sensor is used to calculate the moisture content in the

soil. It returns either digital output i.e 0,1 or analog output which are variable

numbers. By considering this output generated by the soil moisture sensor, the

water motor is turned ON and OFF. The motor helps in supplying water to the

plant. And this motor is turned ON and OFF by the help of relay.
Design

The soil moisture sensor and relay are connected to the arduino uno board

which is provided with 9V power supply. The relay is connected to the

submersible water pump which acts as an actuator.


Coding

int sensor_pin = A0; // Soil Sensor input at Analog PIN A0

int output_value ;

int Relay = 3;

void setup() {

pinMode(Relay,OUTPUT);

Serial.begin(9600);

Serial.println("Reading From the Sensor ...");

delay(2000);

pinMode(13,OUTPUT);

void loop() {

output_value= analogRead(sensor_pin);

output_value = map(output_value,550,10,0,100);
Serial.print("Mositure : ");

Serial.print(output_value);

Serial.println("%");

if(output_value<0){

digitalWrite(Relay,HIGH);

digitalWrite(13,HIGH);

else{

digitalWrite(Relay,LOW);

digitalWrite(13,LOW);

delay(1000);

}

Conclusion

In this way this system does not require any human intervention. Everything is

automated. The water motor will provide water to the plant when it needs it

depending on the moisture level in the soil of the plant.


Future Scope

For future scope we are going to add some more features such as soil

monitoring in which the constraints in the soil like nitrogen sodium will be

measured and accordingly the fertilizers will be supplied to the plants along

with water. Also we are making an android app which will contain all the

information about the system and will display the moisture content value and

also the soil nutrients list along with their values.

There will be one more mode added into the system along with automatic

mode which is manual mode. The user will also be able to supply water or

fertilizers, nutrients to the plant by just a click of button.
