Smart Garden Irrigation System | Climate & Soil-Based Watering

Enhanced Prompt: Smart Garden Irrigation System Design

Objective: Design a comprehensive, smart garden irrigation system tailored to optimize water efficiency, promote plant health, and ensure sustainable garden management. The system must adapt to varying plant needs, soil moisture retention, and environmental conditions, ensuring efficient water use and robust performance.

Scope: The system will include:

• Soil Moisture Sensors: Monitors soil moisture levels in real-time across multiple garden zones.
• Climate-Adaptive Valves: Adjusts irrigation based on temperature, humidity, and rainfall data.
• Smart Valves: Precisely control water flow to meet plant-specific needs.
• Water Quality Monitors: Tracks pH, temperature, and nutrient levels in irrigation water.
• Smart Controllers: Manage the system's operations and integrate with external data sources.
• User Interface: A mobile app for remote monitoring and adjustments.

Key Features:

1. Real-Time Monitoring: Utilizes IoT sensors to track soil moisture, plant health, and environmental conditions.
2. Adaptive Irrigation: Adjusts watering schedules based on soil moisture and plant needs.
3. Energy Efficiency: Optimizes water usage to reduce energy consumption and costs.
4. Sustainability: Incorporates eco-friendly practices like mulching and rainwater harvesting.
5. Scalability: Designed for future expansion and adaptable to different garden layouts.

Technical Specifications:

• Soil Moisture Sensors: ASHRAE-compliant, with a range of 0-4000 ppm for accurate moisture readings.
• Smart Valves: Operate on a 24V system, with flow rates up to 10 L/min, and include pressure relief valves.
• Water Quality Monitors: Capable of measuring pH, temperature, and dissolved o
