Smart Mint Plant System for Air Temperature and Soil Moisture Control Using an IoT-Based Decision Tree Method
Keywords:
Mint Plants, Decision Tree, Temperature, Soil MoistureAbstract
Mint plants are leafy plants that offer numerous benefits to life. These plants are typically found in regions with altitudes ranging from 100 to 700 meters above sea level, with temperatures between 20°C to 30°C, humidity levels of 70% to 80%, and full sunlight intensity. Mint plants can grow well with proper watering that meets their needs. However, manual watering of mint plants requires extra effort from cultivators. Therefore, an automatic watering device with a fan has been developed to maintain soil temperature and moisture suitable for mint plants. This automatic irrigation system utilizes a decision tree method and can be monitored via a mobile application. Testing will begin by individually testing components such as the DHT22 sensor, soil moisture sensor, DC fan, and solenoid valve. From these tests, it was found that the mint plants grew by 2mm, from 17.8 cm to 18 cm, and produced 5 new shoots.
