Abstract

A suitable planting medium is a medium of good quality soil that can support plant growth quickly. Fertile soil is the primary need for plants. The quality of the planting medium dramatically affects plant growth. The types of soil needed for plant growth vary, namely sandy soil, red soil, alluvial soil, and humus soil. Using an NPK sensor that functions to detect nutrients in the soil and can work if the tip of the sensor is plugged into the soil they want to detect, the results detected by the sensor will be sent in the form of analog signal data to nodemcu, which will be processed and displayed on the screen. Thingspeak. This tool is controlled by nodemcu with an NPK sensor to detect nutrients in the soil with output to thingspeak. The function of the NPK sensor tool will measure the nutrients in the soil for citrus seedlings, and the results read by the Npk sensor will be sent to the Thingspeak web, making it easier for farmers to seed citrus seeds. The data read by the sensor will be sent to thingspeak, making it easier to monitor nutrients in the soil. From the results of the tests carried out, it is found that the nutrient content in wet soil is higher than in dry soil; from the tests carried out, the NPK sensor accuracy rate is 90%.
