Please link to a commercial system that already does what you want, so we can see what others have done.

similar to this project but for wells
Ok. they want me to turnoff the ad control program, which I will not.
To be perfectly honest with you, build this system and seal it however you need so the humidity is not a problem and begin testing!!!! When it works, add other possible sensors/functions to the system. You really need to begin testing something so you can decide what else you need.

The project you linked....it's what you want? What's the difference between this project and what you need ("...for wells")?
Both have the same purpose, water quality monitoring, but I want to make it simpler regarding sensors that only collect water quality data and send it to a server in case of wells.
Well, you are the person in charge of the whole project! If you don't want to send some information, DON'T SEND IT!
I mean, it only requires sensors used in water quality monitoring systems such as pH, turbidity, TDS, chloride, etc. to collect the data and transmit it to the cloud.
Make it any way you want. It's your project! Just begin. In the end, I doubt you will get anything useful because well water is stagnant, not moving or stirring, stuff floats or sinks. Water on top is not the same as water at the bottom!
So is your questions "what's the best sensor for pH, turbidity, TDS, and chloride"? Or are you stuck on how to send this data to the cloud?

You mentioned ML. That requires training data, right? Say you have a bunch of sensors, like pH, conductivity, colour (including UV and IR) and whatnot. Then you need to make samples of polluted water with all thinkable polluters in all combinations. Then you set up your neural network and start the training. Maybe your trained system with the combination of sensors can detect something for which you don't have a specific sensor, but that polluter happens to create a specific triggering pattern on all the other sensors.

IT is obvious for me that the OP is never going to move beyond just talking/writing about stuff, so I am marking this thread to ignore. Good luck!

And what have you found so far?

Online 4-20mA Turbidity Sensor TC100/500/3000
Is your question âhow to use thatâ? Or âwill it work for your needâ? Or âotherâ?

It would be far easier to measure quality away from the well in the delivery system where the environment is better .
Iâm giving up on this one now too

both
Itâs just not clear how much work/planning/research youâve put in yourself. Sorta appears youâre wanting someone to lead you through this project?

How do you determine whether the water is fit for irrigation today?

By calculating PH and Turbidity, etc.
