| Abstract: | The COVID-19 pandemic is associated with an upturn toward home gardening as a relaxing activity, bringing a sense of peace and proximity to nature during the quarantine measures. Subsequently, after COVID-19, irregular watering patterns become a threat that houseplants face. They are poisoned by root rot from overwatering or dehydration from underwatering. To solve this problem, this study introduces an Automatic Watering Device that relies on soil moisture sensors and Arduino interfaces. The quantitative experimental research method was used to determine the accuracy of the automatic watering device, the volume of water dispensed, the relay module’s response time, the water pumping time, and the soil moisture sensor detection time. The result of this study proved the feasibility of using soil moisture sensors and an Arduino interface in creating an Automatic Watering Device as it displays a laudable rate of accuracy in comparison to a standard moisture meter with an average of 98.75%, 98%, and 100% in three trials with a highly accurate detection time at 7.50 seconds on average. Soil moisture sensors and an Arduino interface were utilized to create an affordable, convenient and accurate Automatic Watering Device, contributing to a big step towards automation in plant care, due to its efficiency, sustainability and improved plant well-being. The proven effectiveness, based on the results, in detecting low moisture levels and the accurate watering confirmed wider options for usage in automated plant caring systems. Lastly, it is recommended to better utilize the device’s automation and reduce the hands-on involvement of the plant owner by developing an app that can perform tasks such as set watering intervals, control the amount of water delivered, select for specific plant types through the app, and turn the whole device on and off. |
