Humans have been disturbing nature by deforestation for quite some time now. Well if there is no stopping of construction projects, one solution to this could lie in planting trees each house so that the loss of plant life by construction can be somehow recovered by planting enough trees within each house.
Now a big obstacle that lies in indoor plant growth is sunlight. Residential flats do not have an open roof. Other factors include lack of time to water plants and lack of space to plant the plants in the house.
Well here propose a single solution to all of these problems. We here develop an indoor plant grow pot with integrated plant grow light to imitate sunlight, water chamber with sensors to automatically feed water with nutrients to plant for indoor growing.
The Automatic hydroponic grow pot provides the following advantages:
- Dimmable Plant Grow Light
- Automatic Water feeder Pump
- Reserve Water Tank with Low Level Alert
- Adjustable Plant grow Settings
- Wall Mount as well as Desk top placement
- Also acts as wall decor
- Fully Automatic Operation
The system makes use of a grow light, light dimmer circuitry, water pump, water tank, LCD display, water sensor along with arduino controller based control circuitry to develop the system. The system is powered by a AC power supply to run the circuitry.
The system circuitry s powered by a dc power supply which allows the user to adjust grow light as well as the watering settings. As per settings provided to the device the system will adjust light intensity and duration along with watering duration to achieve desired plant growth.
The system also has an inbuilt water tank for reserve water which allows the system to water the plant for upto a week. When the water tank supply runs low it is detected by water sensor which then activates a buzzer alert with notice n LCD display to inform user to fill the reserve tank.
Thus the system delivers fully automated arduino powered hydroponic plant grow and care device.
