On the Design of Watering and Lighting Control Systems for Chrysanthemum Cultivation in Greenhouse Based on Internet of Things

Abstract

Two things that are very influential on the growth of Chrysanthemum are moisture and lighting. This research aims to make the system of watering and lighting control, and monitoring of soil moisture on the cultivation of Chrysanthemum in IoT-based Greenhouse. This research combines the concept of the Internet of Things and control system. The temporary results of this research are the application of lamp control and website-based pumps that are compatible on Android at least version 4.2, iOS, and windows also various browsers. The WEMOS D1 mini ESP8266 module is used as a controller and webserver of this Chrysanthemum irrigation and lighting system. The system is tested with wireless connections within a limited range, with an average response time of 0.5 seconds and an average connection speed of 58 Mbps.
