Project Summary

World population is increasing day by day and so do the hunger world has less resources to fulfill the needs of the food as there are less fertile lands compare to infertile lands.

Moreover the environment is facing drastic changes which also effects the growth of the plants. To overcome all these problem we purpose an idea of Smart indoor Hydroponic Chamber Gardening which will not only grow plants without soil but also be smart enough to provide all the essential nutrients which plants needed to grow and the environment of the plants in which they grow will also be controlled in this chamber. This is done using sensors which are controlled by a Mobile Application.

As it is indoor so the residents of these areas which faces heavy snowfall can use this as their backup and enjoy the fresh food in the winter season specially.

Project Objectives

It is an era of smart phones not everyone knows how to grow plants but most people knows how to use smartphone this system will help everyone to give their contribution to environment and also help people to fight against hunger.

Objectives

• Healthy Food.
• Zero Hunger.
• Promote Gardening.
• Become your own farmer , right in the comfort of your home.

Project Implementation Method

We will use Arduino board which is used to keep track of time, reads sensors, send data to mobile app, turn the Water pump on or off, turn the lights on or off. Temperature and Humidity sensor so we can control the temperature and Humidity according to the need of plants. Our system will have a nutrition feeder which will provide nutrition to the plants according to their needs. We will add nutrition in this and then it will automatically supply nutrition to the plants on the basis of their needs to grow. System will notify you on your mobile when to change water of the supply.

Chamber will be made of Aluminum into which we will place grow lights our system will have three detachable chambers in which we will be growing the plants.

Benefits of the Project

• No soil needed.
•  Faster growth of plant.
•  Less water consumption
•  Water can be reused.
•  Fresh and Healthy plants.
•  Non seasonal vegetables can be grow

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

Chamber has three portion which are detachable each have grow lights which will provide sunlight and heat to plants moreover each chamber will have its own sensors and cooling device each chamber can be controlled by the app separately. Plants inside each chamber might be different to each other and the nutrition requirement of each plant will be controlled automatically by the system using the nutrition feeder which will be connected to the system and it will supply these nutrition fill inside it to the plants on the basis of the requirement of that particular plant. Moreover the temperature and the environment will also be controlled on the basis of their needs. System will have the data regarding the plants stored in database for the optimal growth of plants.

Tools 

• Arduino board Mega with Wifi
• Arduino Mega box
• Grow lights
• Temperature and Humidity Sensor
• Ph sensor
• Water Pump
• cooling fans
• Pvc Pipes
• Bread board
• Relay module
• Conductivity sensor
• Bluetooth module
• Ph sensor

Mobile Application

This will consist of controls like turn on or of water pump or grow light supply nutrients manually or automatically and you can also check the temperature, pH level and humidity level of the chamber. It will also tell you when the plant is fully grown.
