Lawn Irrigation Controller Kit v12
Arduino Soil pH & Moisture Monitoring Kit – Build a Lawn Irrigation Controller
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Turn three ordinary soil samples into a live dashboard of pH and moisture levels. This Lawn Irrigation Controller Kit v12 bridges classroom electronics with real-world agriculture, letting you build a device that reads soil conditions exactly like sensors used in smart farms. Display the data instantly on an LCD and understand how technology monitors crop health.
What You'll Build
You'll assemble a compact Arduino-based controller that measures both acidity and water content in soil. Connect the included pH and moisture probes, watch readings update on the 16x2 screen, and instantly see which sample would need watering or pH correction. The finished project is a tangible, working model of precision irrigation.
What You'll Learn
- Interfacing analog sensors with Arduino Nano to read physical quantities
- Using an I2C LCD backpack to display pH and moisture percentage clearly
- Interpreting real sensor data to assess soil health for plants
- Calibrating a pH probe and moisture probe using the included soil samples

Who This Kit Is For
Designed for CBSE Class 7–10 students exploring environmental science and basic electronics, ATL Tinkering Lab members, and young innovators entering Smart India Hackathon junior tracks. Ideal for anyone who wants to see how sensors bring agriculture into the maker space.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Scan the kit’s QR code for the AI companion, which walks you through wiring, code upload, and troubleshooting. You can also message us on WhatsApp for direct human support.
Do the soil samples need any preparation before testing?
The included samples are ready to use straight from the box. For experiments with your own garden soil, simply moisten the sample slightly before inserting the probes.
Is coding experience necessary to run this project?
Not at all. The kit comes with pre-written Arduino code, and the AI companion guides you through uploading it to the Nano.
Can I view readings without the LCD screen?
Yes, you can connect the Arduino Nano to a computer and use the serial monitor to see real-time pH and moisture values alongside the physical display.
Lawn — Measure soil pH and moisture in real soil samples and display on Arduino — connects electronics to agriculture and environment.
