Soil Moisture Senzor
Introducere
My project will measure and track the moisture content of the ground in which it is installed. The reason I want to do this is to assist individuals who do not know how to garden in properly watering their plants.
My inspiration came from my own experience with plants that I couldn't water (I usually put too much water and they die). So I started researching how ”professional” gardeners keep their plants hydrated and alive at the same time on the internet.
Drip irrigations, for example, keep plants with the proper quantity of ground moisture, as I discovered. So I came up with the notion of calculating the percentage of water in the earth. That way, I'd never be able to kill plants again.
Descriere generală
A device that automatically detects soil moisture and irrigates your plants so that you can water your plants just when they need it using this technique, avoiding over or under-watering.
