This project aims to develop a solar powered hydroponic monitoring system. Hydroponic system is a plantation system that uses water as the medium instead of soil. The solar energy acts as the main source and a supply for the Arduino Uno, a microcontroller to control all the sensors, collecting the data and display the data to users. The sensors used were DS18B20 temperature sensor, propylene float water level sensor and pH sensor. These sensors will monitor those elements and helping the users in hydroponics system. An Arduino Ide software was used to develop a coding for the monitoring system. The value of temperature, water level and pH has been measured and collected to be analyzed. For conclusion, this project is successful in that the data collected satisfied the objective and from the result, it shows the effectiveness of solar powered hydroponic monitoring system.
