Abstract
A hydroponics system with the integration of various sensors has been assembled suitable for small space area such as in high-rise buildings. Effect of different light intensity towards the plant growth has been analysed showing almost a two-fold increase with Light Emitting Diode (LED) light, as compared to the natural lighting towards the leaf count, plant height and leaf dry-matter content. Electrical Conductivity (EC) of the nutrients has been shown to be stable within the optimum range for lettuce throughout the experiments. A pH measurement and control system has been succesfully tested and established. It can be concluded that the automated system is suitable for IoT and these data can be integrated onto a developed server for user to obtain data at ease
