Abstract: The process of growing mushrooms requires a lot of attention because it depends on the precise temperature, humidity, and moisture conditions in the growing medium. Unfortunately, with the application of conventional methods, the majority of these parameters are adjusted by hand, leading to many inconsistencies, increased labor costs, and decreased efficiency. This paper describes an innovative mushroom polyhouse design that incorporates the IoT technology, artificial intelligence, and ESP32-based microcontroller as well as a number of sensors. The system constantly monitors several main variables such as temperature, humidity, and the moisture of substrates and adjusts them by turning on the required devices, e.g. exhaust fans, humidifier, and pumps, in a closed-loop mode.

Furthermore, the system is integrated with the cloud service where one can monitor all these variables and even adjust some of them. Such an approach increases automation and allows avoiding numerous mistakes. Consequently, it enhances the effectiveness of growing mushrooms, reduces expenses, and eliminates the likelihood of any losses due to improper adjustment of growing conditions.
