Self Watering Smart Plant Pot

myminifactory

Sometimes when we head out of town or get slammed with work, our houseplants unfairly take a hit because they're not getting the water they need at the right time. Here's my solution to this common problem.\r\nThe whole system, including electronics, pumps and the water reservoir, is neatly packed inside the pot so it looks sleek. Plus, each pot can be set up to cater specifically to different types of plants if you're growing multiple varieties.\r\nIt's all controlled by an Arduino Nano, and I made sure to keep costs low on all the components. Below are links to the parts on Amazon where you can find them.\r\nCheck out this video for a step-by-step guide: https://youtu.be/T_tpKoNCVYw\r\n==========\r\nHere's what you'll need for this project and where to get it (the links are affiliate links that help support my channel without costing you anything):\r\n■ Arduino Nano: https://geni.us/ArduinoNanoV3■ Mini submersible pump: https://geni.us/MiniPump■ 5mm tubing: https://geni.us/5mmTubing■ Transistor: https://geni.us/2npn2222■ Resistors (1k and 4.7k): https://geni.us/Ufa2s■ Wire: https://geni.us/22AWGWire■ 3mm LED: https://geni.us/LEDs■ Water level sensor: https://geni.us/WaterLevelSensor■ Nuts and Bolts: http://geni.us/NutsAndBolts■ Soil moisture sensor: https://geni.us/MoistureSensor■ Half Perma-proto board: https://geni.us/HalfPermaProto■ PLA Filament: https://geni.us/PLAFilament\r\n■ Battery powered glue gun: http://geni.us/BoschBatteryGlueGun■ Battery powered soldering iron: http://bit.ly/SealeySDL6\r\n==========\r\nGet the code from here: https://github.com/DIY-Machines/SmartPlantV1\r\n==========\r\nShow some appreciation:\r\nBuy me a coffee to say thanks: https://ko-fi.com/diymachinesSupport my work on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/diymachines\r\nStay tuned by subscribing to my channel:■ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3jc4X-kEq-dEDYhQ8QoYnQ?sub_confirmation=1\r\nFollow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/diy_machines/?hl=enLike my Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/diymachines/\r\nDisclaimer:This video is shared for demonstration purposes only.
