Overview
Welcome to Z-Garden, an
innovative solution designed to bring smart
irrigation
and environmental monitoring
to your garden. Z-Garden leverages cutting-edge technology to create a seamless and automated system
that
ensures your plants receive the optimal care they need, while you enjoy peace of mind and convenience.
Key Features:
- π‘οΈAir Temperature & Humidity Monitoring - Keeps track of your garden's
environment.
- π±Soil Moisture Measurement - Ensures your plants get the right amount of water.
- π¦Adjustable Soil Moisture Threshold - Automatically triggers the pump to water
plants
when moisture is low.
- π‘οΈLiquid Temperature: - Monitors water temperature.
- π§Water TDS Measurement - Maintains water quality for healthy plant growth.
- π§ͺWater pH Measurement - Keeps the pH levels optimal.
- π°Water Level Monitoring - Prevents the pump from running if the tank is empty.
- πPowered by 18V Solar Cell, Battery, or Adapter - Reliable, sustainable, with up
to
20
hours of battery life (tested and extendable).
