<![CDATA[The Carolina Reaper chili, known for its extreme spiciness reaching up to 2,200,000 Scoville Heat Units, requires meticulous cultivation methods for optimal yield. This research emphasizes the importance of proper fertilization and irrigation. An automatic drip fertigation system is introduced to address issues such as inconsistent watering and nutrient imbalance. The system employs waterproof ultrasonic sensors, soil moisture sensors, RTC, and a DHT22 temperature sensor, monitored via Internet of Things (IoT) technology. An Arduino Uno controls the timing, soil moisture, greenhouse temperature, and fertilizer liquid level. A relay-operated solenoid valve is used to automatically supply fertilizer and water. The implementation of this system enhances the efficiency of water and fertilizer use, ensures consistent irrigation, and facilitates plant monitoring. This technology has the potential to improve the yield and quality of Carolina Reaper chilies while reducing labor costs and resource usage in modern agricultural practices.]]>
