in plant monitoring why are we not calibrating the temperature.we should calibrate in degree Celsius right?
Plant requires sunlight for photosynthesis not heat. That’s why we measure the light in case of plant monitoring system.
Yes.
Here we are Checking the light intensity that’s why we only used LDR.
If u want to check temperature or humidity or moisture u can use respective sensors 
Hello!! @aravind.anil185
->Basically Plant monitoring project work on Light Dependent Resistor. Here there is no relation of LDR with temperature.
-> Plant monitoring system check the amount of proper light received to the plant or not.
->Using LDR we have the record of intensity of Light, not temperature.
Have a good day!
Hello!! @aravind.anil185.
[1]Generally a plant require sun light,air and water mainly.
[2]Even temperature maintainance is also required for proper growth.
[3]As light light is essential for it’s growth, we monitor it generally by our “plant monitoring device”.
[4]If proper light is not falling on plant ,It will not grow properly and It will die if that continues like that.
[5]And mostly the temperature changes are due to change in light intensity around the plant.
That’s why we monitor light intensity rather than temperature in our primary concern.
Hope this will be helpfull.
Have a good day!!
Plant monitoring project determines whether the plant getting sunlight or not. Temperature does not tells us the same.

Hai there,
As the plant monitoring project being a project for the increase in the understanding capacity for knowing the basic requirement and working of the iot platform in daily easy life.
The challenge is to know the data for the healthy growth of the plants which needs the right amount of light for the synthesis so we consider the light data.
but we all being a crazy humans we can even monitor the amount of humidity,water,etc. using various sensors as all the inventions are used for the betterment of humankind
in ‘plant monitoring project’ we check if plant is receiving proper light intensity or not, we can monitor light intensity for plant because temperature depends majorly on light intensity. and as we know plant requires light energy for photosynthesis so we use ldr but we can also build a project with temperature sensor,humidity,ect. we can also add a height sensor and know how much is the plant/tree growing.
