Aiding Plant Growth Difference for Indoor Vertical Garden against Traditional Outdoor Vertical Garden Setup using DHT11 and Capacitive Soil Moisture Sensor

Indoor gardening is concerned with the difficult task of maintaining plant life within the confines of the premises. Indoor gardening lacks the abundance of sunlight which causes imbalance in plant irrigation. Because plants require sunlight to thrive, it appears that keeping them outside is the best option. The vertical garden monitoring system aims to alleviate the difficulties by incorporating an ESP32 module board MCU, controlled lights, automated water irrigation, productive fertilizers, and data monitoring via capacitive soil moisture and DHT11 sensors, displayed within an HTML webpage. The research prototype aids the inefficiencies of indoor gardening in terms of plant growth by ANOVA test findings of sample p-value 0.121373 for Plant Height, and sample p-value 0.945192 for length of leaves. An indication that the comparison for traditional and indoor vertical garden systems had no significant difference.
