Abstract: - The increasing need for efficient plant care in urban and indoor settings has highlighted the limitations of manual monitoring, which can be inconsistent and time-consuming. This study presents a Smart Plant Monitoring System that utilizes Internet of Things (IoT) technology integrated with the Blynk application to automate and optimize plant care. The system continuously monitors essential environmental factors such as soil moisture, temperature, and humidity by employing IoT-enabled sensors. The data is then sent to the Blynk platform, allowing users to remotely observe plant conditions and receive notifications when intervention is needed. This research addresses the problem of ineffective plant care due to human error and environmental variability, proposing an automated approach that adjusts watering schedules based on real-time data.
Our methodology involves designing and implementing a sensor network connected to a user-friendly interface on the Blynk app, which displays live environmental data, sets alert thresholds, and facilitates remote control. Experimental results show that the system successfully maintains optimal growing conditions by reducing water consumption and minimizing manual effort. The findings suggest that this IoT-based system provides a more consistent and reliable alternative to traditional plant monitoring methods, benefiting individual users and commercial plant management. The Smart Plant Monitoring System enhances the precision and efficiency of plant care, supporting sustainable practices and responding to the demands of modern, technology-driven lifestyles.
The results demonstrate that this IoT-based approach offers a more reliable and consistent alternative to traditional plant care methods, making it useful for individual plant enthusiasts commercial growers. By promoting --sustainable practices and leveraging modern technology, the Smart Plant Monitoring System aligns with the needs of today’s fast-paced, tech-driven lifestyles while ensuring healthier, happier plants.
