Product Description:
The Arduino Soil Moisture Sensor Module is an easy-to-use, efficient tool for monitoring soil moisture levels in your garden, greenhouse, or any other plant-based environment. Whether you're building an automated watering system or simply want to monitor the moisture levels of your soil, this sensor provides accurate readings, making it perfect for Arduino-based projects. It helps optimize water usage, ensuring your plants receive just the right amount of water.
How to Use:
- Connect the sensor to your Arduino board (VCC to 5V, GND to GND, and the output to an analog pin like A0).
- Insert the sensor into the soil at the desired depth.
- Upload the Arduino code to start reading moisture levels from the sensor.
- Use the output data to control a watering system or monitor the soil condition.
