The Agro-Hydronator

The Project

This project is based on arduino and is helpful for people growing indoor plants and don't know the right amount of water to be put in the soil for the plants to grow and germinate. The LED glows red if it is over or under-watered, and green if it is just the right amount.

I chose to make it because I myself tried to grow plants but didn't know if I was watering it right and so I needed a solution.

Our family just moved to this place a week ago and right from sourcing out the materials, to finding an appropriate place to work it out and video shoot the project was quite challenging but thankfully made it possible before the announced deadline.

I would add 2 separate LEDs for over-watering and under-watering the plants, respectively. I would also add an exo-skeleton for my build so that it looks like a proper functioning device.
