Automated PLANT!!!

50-Best-Modern-Decorative-Unique-and-Classical-Indoor-Planters-and-Pots-1.jpg

HELLO WORLD!!, it is my first instructable......I was thinking to made a self watered plant. There is no need to water it daily!, AND ALSO IF WE SOMEHOW FORGET TO WATER PLANT, WE DON'T NEED TO TAKE TENSION....This project is very simple and cheap to make also it is good for nature!

Supplies

THIS IS MY FIRST INSTRUCTABLE SO DON'T MIND MY MISTAKES, FOCUS ON MY MEANING.

AND FEEL FREE TO ASK ANY DOUBT OR QUESTION.

I WAS FIRST THINKING TO USE ARDUINO NANO BUT LATER I THINK THAT IF HOWEVER IT BECAME WET IT WASTE! SO I think to make a circuit only for this work. Then i sat on my lab started to think.........then I got a idea-----WE HAVE TO MAKE A CIRCUIT WHICH PASS CURRENT WHEN THERE IS NO WATER!

WE NEED:

1) ANY NPN TRANSISTOR( I HAVE USED BC547)

2) 2*10K RESISTOR

3) A WATER SENSOR

4) A LED

5) DC 3 - 6 V PUMP

AND OFCOURSE A SOLDRING KIT......

AND A CREATIVE MIND!!!!

CURCUIT DIAGRAM

HERE

*THIRD LEG OF NPN TRANSISTOR WILL CONNECT TO GROUND AND THIRD LEG TO ONE TERMINAL OF WATER SENSOR.

*MIDDLE LEG OF TRANSISTOR TO SECOND TERMINAL OF WATER SENSOR.

*FIRST LEG OF NPN TRANSISTOR TO -VE TERMINAL OF LED AND ALSO TO WATER PUMP....

THE POSITIVE TERMINAL OF WATER PUMP AND LED TO +VE TERMINAL OF SENSOR AND BATTERY!


I HAVE ALSO UPLOAD A CIRCUIT DIAGRAM.

BUT IN THIS CIRCUIT DIAGRAM

##** I HAVE ADDED DC WATER PUMP WITH LED **##

WHICH IS NOT SHOWN IN CIRCUIT DIAGRAM

IT'S WORKING IS VERY SIMPLE. When there is no water in the pot, Then our circuit will pass current and the dc pump becomes ON and it will fill our pot with water and when water fills full in the pot the sensor informs the circuit and circuit becomes open. Hence DC motor becomes OFF.

DC MOTOR WILL WORK WHENEVER THE WATER DRIED. AND IT FILLS IT AGAIN

THERE IS NO NEED TO WATER!!
