Abstrakt: Cultivators that grow oyster mushrooms keep failing due to a of lack control in temperature, humidity, soil moisture, and concentration of carbon dioxide. In order to grow great oyster mushrooms and avoid crop failure, the temperature must be between 22 °C to 28 °C and the relative humidity must be between 85% to 90%. The concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) needs to be controlled below 800 during its growth phase. Failure to meet those parameters will result in the mushroom drying out, slowing growth, or stopping. As a result, oyster mushroom cultivators will require a system that can control the surrounding temperature and humidity, soil moisture, and concentration of CO2 conditions in order to produce good-quality oyster mushrooms. An automated environmental control system is constructed to handle the problem. In this system, by means of a feedback control loop system that monitors and activates the actuators when necessary, promising results of the oyster mushroom cultivation system are produced and analyzed.
