Abstract: : Due to time constraints and irregular plant requirements monitoring, maintaining a garden has become increasingly difficult in today's fast-paced world. For optimum growth, plants require enough water, sunlight, and the right temperature; the surrounding environment must also be kept hygienic and clean. In order to address these problems, this project presents a Smart Garden and Monitoring System, a sensor- driven, automated solution that automates gardening tasks and incorporates a waste management function. By using an autonomous water pump connected to a soil moisture sensor, the system ensures that plants are watered whenever the soil dries out. By preventing both overwatering and underwatering, this feature saves water and guarantees that the soil is suited for plant vitality. Since sunlight is essential for photosynthesis and general plant growth, an LDR (Light Dependent Resistor) sensor is included to measure the amount of light that the plants get. A temperature sensor helps determine whether the ambient temperature is suitable for plant growth by continuously monitoring the local climate. In addition to plant monitoring, the project has an intelligent trash can featuring a detecting mechanism that indicates if the bin is full or empty. This promotes hygiene in the garden area by improving cleanliness and reducing the problem of waste overflow.
