In today's era of embracing eco-friendly solutions, nurturing plants has become essential for a healthier lifestyle. However, ensuring plants receive adequate watering poses a challenge, especially amidst busy schedules. To address this, we've developed a straightforward automatic plant watering system that operates without Arduino. Our aim is to simplify plant care with minimal components and reduce complexity for all users.
Importance:
Consistent watering is crucial for plant health, yet it can be difficult to maintain with hectic lifestyles. Our system offers a hands-free solution, ensuring plants receive proper moisture even when owners are absent. By eliminating Arduino, we've made plant care more accessible to everyone.
Advantages:
User-Friendly: Requires no coding and minimal components, suitable for beginners.
Cost-Effective: Uses commonly available parts, making it affordable.
Adjustable Delay Function: Allows customization of watering intervals.
Compact Design: Suitable for indoor and outdoor use.
Operation:
The system relies on a soil moisture sensor to detect soil moisture levels. When the soil is dry, the sensor activates a timer circuit, triggering a mini water pump to deliver water. Once the soil is adequately moist, the pump shuts off, ensuring efficient watering.
Components:
Electrolytic Capacitor (680uf)
Resistors (10k, 1k, 500E)
Potentiometer (100k Ohm)
Mini Water Pump
Mini Water Tube
5V Power Source
Assembly:
Designed for easy assembly using a breadboard, the system can also be soldered onto a PCB for a permanent solution. It operates on a 5V DC input, compatible with various power sources.
Our automatic plant watering system offers a practical solution for plant care, allowing users to maintain healthy plants with minimal effort. By simplifying the process and removing Arduino, we've made plant care accessible to all enthusiasts, regardless of experience level. Say goodbye to wilted plants and hello to thriving greenery with our straightforward system!
