Through the use of smart sensors to monitor and regulate plant conditions, smart home gardening management systems can maximize resource utilisation and minimize human intervention. This study offers a new system that remotely controls the water supply to ensure optimal plant growth without the need for personal presence. The system uses the Blynk IoT platform to monitor soil moisture and water levels. A Raspberry Pi is used in conjunction with several sensors, such as a soil moisture sensor and a DHT11 sensor for temperature and humidity readings. The technology activates a motor to provide water to the plants automatically when the soil moisture level falls below a certain threshold. Users can remotely monitor and manage the system from their cell phones thanks to integration with the Blynk platform. The suggested method is an affordable and effective way to garden in your home, and it’s simply customizable to fit the requirements of different users.
