In an agricultural country like India a lot of people will work with green thumb in mind. Most of the people loves to grow plants at home, but due to their work schedule they very often take care of plants. The only solution to this problem is smart monitoring of the plant growth by modernizing the current traditional methods of gardening. Hence the proposed system targets at smart way of monitoring the plant growth using automation and IoT technologies. Internet of things (IoT) provides various applications for crop growth and monitoring the growth conditions. Main theme of this paper is to increase the plant growth condition by maintaining the suitable moisture level and temperature with the use of moisture sensor and temperature sensor. This paper works for the crop development at low quantity water consumption by providing an automatic watering system to the user. People often waste lot of time for watering the plants so an efficient management of water should be developed. The proposed system will work based on the information send by the sensors and so proper growth for the plant will be estimated. With the help of the moisture sensor and temperature sensor details like moisture content and the temperature will be obtained and so based on those reading automatic watering will be done. The major advantage of this system is to make a suitable environment for plant growth and also to minimize the water consumption.
