Why

Plants require consistent watering to thrive, but it can be challenging to maintain a regular watering schedule, especially for individuals with busy lifestyles or frequent travel. An auto plant watering system would address this issue by automatically watering plants based on their specific needs, ensuring they receive the right amount of water at the right time. By monitoring soil moisture levels, setting watering schedules, and providing alerts and watering history, the system would help users optimize plant health and growth. Integrating weather data, mobile app control, and support for multiple plants with different requirements would further enhance the functionality of the system.
