BACKGROUND
[0002] Gardening is the practice of growing and cultivating plants and the plants that experience water deficiency leads to slower growth. Additionally, plants suffering from a prolonged drought can lead to infection by pests and pathogens. So, proper watering of plants in flower pots is essential for their growth as water adds life to plants. The amount of water required varies for different types of plants. The monitoring of plants is an issue when the caretaker is not truly around the garden or for the old aged individuals or individuals who are out of the station. So, one needs to monitor his/her garden from a remote location. Also, there is no compelling reason to water contaminated plants. So, it is better to detect plant diseases at regular intervals of time.
[0003] Automation has become increasingly prevalent throughout residential and commercial buildings. Automation allows the consumer to control a variety of machines and systems from a variety of devices, whether indoor or outdoor, plants need water for survival. In certain environments or instances, some gardeners have used the automated water systems to facilitate the watering of a group of plants. However, it is important to ensure that the water is delivered in a timely and periodic matter to maintain the health of the plants.
[0004] Therefore, there is a need in the art to provide a means that can effectively monitor the plants to deliver water in the timely manner by solving the aforementioned problems.

In an exemplary embodiment, the transceiver may be a global system for mobile communications (GSM) 800. The GSM can be provided in any of computing device, such as a smart phone, personal computer (PC) and the like.
[0039] For example, the moisture sensors can be located in each of the flower pot, the moisture sensors can determine the moisture content level in the soil as high, low, and average based on the recommended levels. When the moisture level in any one of the flowering pot falls into the low category, then the valve 110 can be turned on to supply a required quantity of water in a timeframe periodically. Similarly, when the moisture level in any one of the flowering pot falls into the high category, valve 110 can be turned off to restrict the flow of water into the flowering pot.
[0040] In another embodiment, the processor 112 configured to receive, from the image capturing device 102, the images of one or more plants, analyse, the received images to classify one or more growth attributes of the one or more plants, and extract, from the classified one or more growth attributes, the set of values of the one or more plants.The one or more growth attributes of the plants may include any or a combination of types of plants, size of plants, health of plants, disease in plants and the like.

[0043] For example, if the compared image of the plant comes in the classification of an infected plant, processor 112 can set the valves110 to be turned off to restrict supply of water to that specific pot, and if the plant is not infected, then the recommended level of moisture in the soil determined by the sensor106 can decide the opening of the valves 110 for water supply for a specific timeframe. The valves 110 connected to the motor 108 can open for the specific pot depending upon the type of plant and henceforth, the amount of water to each flower pot can be controlled.
[0044] Thus, the system 100 can manage to deliver appropriate amount of water to each flower pot effectively. The water can be filled automatically to flower pots at any time. The watering of plants infected by pests and pathogens can be avoided and hence, water can be saved. The sequencing of water to different flower pots can be achieved.

receiving (402), at a computing device from the transceiver, a plurality of physical attributes of the soil, the plurality of physical attributes pertaining to physical conditions of the soil, the transceiver operatively coupled to one or more sensors, the transceiver adapted to receive the the plurality of physical attributes of the soil from the one or more sensors, the one or more sensors placed in soil of each the one or more plants;
extracting (404), at the computing device, from the received plurality of physical attributes, a set of values of the soil;
obtaining (406), from an image capturing device, a plurality of images of one or more plants;
receiving (408), at the computing device, from the image capturing device, theplurality of the images of the one or more plants;
analysing (410), at the computing device, the received one or more images to classify a plurality of growth attributes of the one or more plants; and
extracting (412), at the computing device, from the classified plurality of growth attributes, the set of values of the one or more plants,
wherein, based on determination of the extracted set of values from the plurality of physical attributes of the soil and from the plurality of growth attributes of the one or more plants with corresponding reference range of values, the computing device is configured to operate (414) the one or more valves for a predetermined period of time to allow a predetermined quantity of the water, the predetermined quantity determined as being required to water the specified one or more plants, and
wherein, the one or more valve operatively coupled to a motor, the one or more valve operable by the motor to allow passage of water from the reservoir.
