Abstract

This paper elaborates on the creation and progression of a cutting-edge Smart Nursery Plant Watering and Monitoring System, which harnesses the power of the ESP32 microcontroller alongside the DHT11 sensor and a soil moisture sensor. In a seamless blend of innovation and practicality, the system is designed to continually track and analyze crucial environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, and soil moisture levels. Through the utilization of Firebase for data storage and the development of a user-friendly Android application using Android Studio, users are granted the capability of indulging in real-time monitoring and control. Furthermore, the system showcases a sophisticated automated plant watering mechanism that springs into action based on the plant's specific moisture requirements, enhancing plant care practices while minimizing the need for human intervention and maximizing water efficiency. Detailed within the paper are insights into the system's intricate architecture, comprehensive implementation specifics, integral hardware and software components, potential avenues for improvement, and a glimpse into the myriad of real-world applications that could benefit from this technology in future developments.
