<![CDATA[Plants need water to stay alive. One of them is ornamental plants that use soil as a medium of life. The need for sufficient water will help ornamental plants in making food in the photosynthesis process. Water that is splashed into the soil will be carried by the xylem transport vessels in the roots to flow to the leaves. Through an automatic sprinkler of ornamental plants based on a microcontroller, it will be easier for farmers to measure the right water frequency for soil moisture through a time that is designed automatically. The technique of watering plants manually on a large area is a process that is less effective in terms of time. Therefore, an automatic plant sprinkler was designed to measure soil moisture using a Soil Moisture sensor and a timer by RTC DS3231 as input when driving the Servo Motor of the automatic sprinkler. The Soil Moisture sensor will send data to the ESP8266 to be read as soil moisture data by thingspeak and command the Servo Motor as an automatic regulator when the soil moisture is sufficient, the sprinkler will automatically close the water channel.]]>
