The proposed ornamental and computerized backyard watering machine, geared up with a soil sensor module, offers an environment friendly method to preserve a flourishing backyard with minimal human effort whereas enhancing visible enchantment.
The machine automates watering by monitoring real-time soil moisture ranges. Conventional strategies typically lead to over-watering or under-watering, stressing vegetation. By using a soil moisture sensor, the machine ensures optimum water supply, selling wholesome plant progress and conserving sources.

Circuit and dealing
The circuit diagram for the ornamental and computerized backyard watering machine is proven in Fig. 2. It contains a step-down transformer (X1), a 12V voltage regulator (LM7812, IC1), a 5V voltage regulator (LM7805, IC2), a soil sensor module with a sensor probe and jumper wire, a PNP transistor (BC558, T1), an NPN transistor (BD139, T2), a 5V SPDT relay, eight completely different colored LEDs (LED1 by way of LED8), and varied different parts.
