Smart irrigation & garden automation — for resilient low-water landscapes
SmartGardenHub designs and deploys sensor-driven irrigation and garden automation systems that reduce water use, simplify care, and improve plant health. We combine soil moisture sensing, weather-aware scheduling, microirrigation design and user-friendly mobile controls to create systems that work reliably across seasons. Our solutions are tailored to private gardens, hobby farms and small estates where water efficiency, plant diversity and simplicity of operation matter.

About SmartGardenHub
SmartGardenHub was created from a desire to make intelligent garden systems accessible to everyday homeowners. We combine horticulture, water-wise landscape design, electronics engineering and user-centered software so that automated gardens are reliable, maintain plant health and reduce unnecessary water waste. Our team begins each engagement with a site assessment that maps microclimates, existing plantings, soil texture, and irrigation constraints; we then offer a phased plan that might include soil improvement, targeted microirrigation, sensor deployment, and an accessible mobile dashboard.
Systems are built around low-pressure drip and micro-sprinkler networks designed to deliver water precisely to root zones. We prefer pressure-regulated driplines, zone isolation valves and cast-iron-free fittings in aggressive soils. A central tenet is to automate what is repetitive and to leave manual controls for creative gardeners: schedules can be overridden easily, temporary boosts for new plantings are simple to apply, and seasonal routines are automated with intuitive presets.
Our installations emphasize three outcomes: water efficiency, plant health and operational simplicity. To deliver these we use sensor data fused with weather forecasts to decide when to irrigate; this reduces unnecessary cycles that arise from fixed schedules. We also provide integrated frost protection toggles and rain-delay logic, and for clients with fruit trees or productive beds we offer fertiliser injection modules and tailored fertigation schedules.
Advantages of SmartGardenHub Systems
Water Savings & Efficiency
Sensor-driven irrigation with smart scheduling usually reduces landscape water use substantially compared to fixed-timer systems. By irrigating based on root-zone moisture, seasonal evapotranspiration and forecasted rainfall, our systems eliminate unnecessary watering events and focus supply where plants need it most.
Healthier Plants & Higher Survival
Maintaining steady moisture at the correct depth and avoiding overwatering reduces root disease and improves plant establishment. Our presets for new plantings and seasonal adjustments help young plants transition to local conditions with higher survival rates and more vigorous growth.
Time Savings & Low Maintenance
Homeowners save time; the automation handles routine watering while manual attention is left for creative tasks. Alerts reduce the need for manual inspection and we provide easy remote override when guests or sudden events require changes.
Integration & Future Proofing
Systems are designed to be modular: start with core zones and add sensors or zones later. We use standard open communication protocols where possible so you are not locked into proprietary hardware. Our software supports over-the-air updates and data export for advanced users who want to archive and analyze trends in soil moisture and irrigation events.
Services & Deliverables
1. Site Assessment & Planning
A thorough on-site review includes sun/shade mapping, soil probes, elevation notes for drainage, and a practical layout for irrigation zones. We produce a clear plan with device lists, estimated water budgets and phased installation options to match your priorities.
2. Sensor & Controller Installation
We deploy root-zone moisture sensors, ambient humidity/temperature nodes and a central controller with weather integration. The controller supports mobile control and scheduled automation; it can also be configured for battery-backed operation where mains power is intermittent.
3. Drip & Micro-Sprinkler Design
We design low-pressure drip networks or micro-sprinkler arrays tailored to plant types, spacing and soil infiltration rates. Pressure regulation and zone balancing ensure even distribution and reduce emitter clogging risk.
4. Fertigation & Nutrient Plans
For productive beds and orchards we provide fertigation modules and dosing strategies. Nutrient scheduling is integrated with irrigation cycles and tuned to crop stages to avoid leaching and maximize uptake efficiency.
5. Training & Handover
Each installation includes a clear owner handover: how to use the app, seasonal presets, simple troubleshooting and recommended maintenance tasks to keep emitters flowing and sensors calibrated.
6. Ongoing Support & Monitoring
We offer optional remote monitoring packages and annual check-ups that include sensor recalibration, filter checks for pumps, and seasonal strategy updates to keep the garden thriving under changing conditions.
