People in the city of Jakarta are busy people. Many Jakarta residents do not have time to look after plants. In fact, as a resident of the city of Jakarta, plant maintenance is very good for exchanging contaminated air into clean air. Plants must be watered every day to be able to photosynthesize. However, the busyness of the citizens of the city of Jakarta makes the residents do not have time to water their plants. Therefore, in this proposed study, a system that can water plants will be created automatically. The system consists of microcontroller as a control device, mobile-web app as the application which used by user and RabbitMQ as a server that control request from user. Microcontroller connected to internet use Wifi network and connected to RabbitMQ through MQTT protocol. Microcontroller as a control device connected with water pump through relay. When the given time has arrived, the water will automatically flow a few mili litters according to the needs of the tree from a bucket filled with water. The results of this research are expected to help urban communities in Jakarta to care for and maintain plants in the midst of their busy life
