Plants, crops, and flowers are living organisms that contribute to the productivity and beauty of our planet. They require a healthy habitat that provides adequate light, air, temperature, water, and nutrients for optimal growth. However, many plants are unable to adjust to extreme changes in their environment, which can negatively impact their growth. Ensuring that plants have the proper habitat is essential for their well-being and success. Additionally, in times of water scarcity, it is important to use available water efficiently. To address this issue, an efficient automation system must be developed. With advances in technology, it is now possible to customize environmental conditions to meet the specific needs of each plant. Technology can also be utilized to accurately monitor and control environmental factors in accordance with the requirements of the plants. This study presents a temperature and water system that utilizes programming to optimize water usage, control ambient temperature, and increase plant productivity while minimizing human intervention. The system is constructed using an Arduino kit, which includes a moisture sensor, a temperature sensor, a fan, and a water pump. Users can choose to operate the system in either manual or automatic mode, depending on their preferences. The Arduino-based prototype effectively managed soil moisture, but the fan was less successful in regulating temperature in open spaces. To improve cooling capabilities, the system should incorporate a larger fan or other more efficient components. Adopting this technology can lead to the development of precision agriculture and smart lifestyles in the future.
