Measuring the humidity for plants
In this section, we will see the testing of humidity inside a plant and the soil using a sensor:
I will now go through the main parts of this first piece of code. Then we set up the serial communication:Â
int value; void setup() { Serial.begin(9600); }
In the main loop, we will read the analog signal from the sensor:
void loop(){ Serial.print("Humidity sensor value:"); Value = analogRead(0); Serial.print(value);
We compare the value of the sensor and display the result on the serial interface:
if (Value<= 300) Serial.println(" Very wet"); if ((Value > 300) and (Value<= 700)) Serial.println(" Wet, do not water"); if (Value> 700) Serial.println(" Dry, you need to water"); delay(1000); }
Here, the screenshot shows the results of the readings:
The following screenshot shows that the plant doesn't require water;  because it has enough...
