Automatic watering plant system
When the plants are watered by hand, more than 50% of the water is wasted through runoff or evaporation. Automatic irrigation settings, by comparison, offer multiple benefits to reduce water supply usage, therefore conserving resources while reducing cost.
Manual watering systems are easy to handle, require no technical equipment and are therefore generally cheap But they need high labour inputs. A common and very simple technique for manual irrigation is for instance the use of watering cans as it can be found in peri-urban agriculture around large cities in some African countries. Automatic Watering plant can solve these all problems
Plants need Watering on regular basis. It is difficult to take care of plants Watering, if someone leave their location for vacation etc. This problem can be solved through automatic Watering System. If it is considered that plants need water according to their moisture level.
In this system, soil moisture sensor senses the moisture level of the soil. If soil will get dry then sensor senses low moisture level and automatically switches on the water pump to supply water to the plant. As plant get sufficient water and soil get wet then sensor senses enough moisture in soil. After which the water pump will automatically get stopped

Save water and time
Both sprinkler and drip irrigation systems can be set to daily or weekly watering, as well as timed for specific hours during day or night. The system will also automatically shut the water off when the irrigation process is complete. By having an automated system to distribute your water supply, you do not have to be physically present for the water system to be effective . The automatic shut off will keep your water usage to a minimum, and lower your costs since less water will be used.
Reduces weed growth
By installing an irrigation system specifically designed for your landscape, only areas that truly need water will receive it, thus limiting your potential weed growth. Drip irrigation systems are particularly efficient at this: the system directs water specifically to each plant’s roots, rather than sprinkling over the entire garden.
Improves plant growth
Plants will grow faster and greener when watered with smaller amounts of water over a longer period, which is exactly what irrigation systems are designed to do. Installing an irrigation system will improve your plant growth significantly.
Preserves soil nutrients
Watering by hand often leads to excess water seeping into the soil. Water runoff seeps into the soil and carries precious nutrients away from your plants. Using a hose can also compact your soil, leading to plant suffocation or root disease. Using an irrigation system will preserve your soil structure and keep your plants absorbing nutrients, not the run off water
It requires water pump with 5 volt dc moter. For implementation on larger are it required a relay module..
But this mini project will based on water pump, diode, transistor and register combined circuit, which operates dc moter according to the aurdunio code
