🔵Soil-moisture-sensor-watering_plants🔵

🌱💧 This is a project that cointains arduino code for a soil moisture sensor using ardiono UNO and a soil moisture sensor.

💻🖥 The project was done for Robotech summer training 2020-2021 FCIS ASU.

Why we should water the plants continuously ? 🤔

Water enters a plant through its stem and travels up to its leaves. When a plant is properly hydrated, there is enough water pressure to make the leaves strong and sturdy; when a plant doesn't get enough water, the pressure inside the stems and leaves drops and they wilt. Plants also need water for photosynthesis.

Underwatering 💧 Vs Overwatering 💦 :

Underwatering plants causes dry leaves, brown tips, leaf drop, wilting, and leaf curling. The soil will feel dry, but the plant will improve after watering ,Overwatering causes yellowing leaves, brown tips, wilting despite wet soil, and also symptoms of underwatering if root rot has started.
