The study explores the use of internet of things (IoT) devices in agriculture to improve sustainable practices and environmental concerns. It uses the ESP8266 microcontroller and the Blynk platform to create a revolutionary plant health monitoring and automated care system. The system is designed to handle continuous monitoring and plant maintenance in various environmental conditions. Sensors measuring light, temperature, humidity, and soil moisture are strategically placed to receive real-time data. The ESP8266 microcontroller analyzes this information and links it to the Blynk cloud for accessibility via mobile or web applications. The system is effective in monitoring ideal growing conditions, such as soil moisture and weather conditions. Automated care elements like irrigation and supplemental lighting have been shown to improve plant growth and health. The study contributes to smart farming by offering an affordable and easy way to automate and monitor plant health, demonstrating how IoT technologies can enhance agricultural practices, conserve resources, and enable remote management of plant ecosystems.
