An ample amount of water quantity is vital for a plant to grow. People are unable to water the plants when they go on vacations or regularly fail to remember to water plants, which results into damaging the plants. Giving water to plants is one of the most significant practice and overall a labor demanding work. Automatic watering systems lessen the responsibility of watering the plants when there is a requirement. The two major part of watering method is to know when and how much to water the plants. In this paper, a system is implemented such that it will sense the soil moisture content of the plant and turn the motor ON to water the plant when needed.
