Tired of looking for guardians every time before a vacationfor your violets? Forget about it: the latest technologies will not allow indoor plants to dry up from melancholy. In our article you will find an overview of modern self-watering pots Everyone loves vacation, but quite often this bright time is overshadowed by a feeling of guilt because of the abandoned representatives of flora and fauna. And if we usually assign animals to compassionate friends and relatives, then plants are left in complete and hopeless loneliness. In order to reduce the suffering of our silent pets, and sometimes simply save their lives, the most intelligent part of plant growers created several very interesting devices, which we will get acquainted with today.Pet Plant Pot is just a concept for now, butalready promising. Designer Junyi Heo has created a flowerpot project based on a Tamagotchi. The unit will report on the needs and "mood" of the plant, analyzing the temperature, humidity and soil condition. Depending on the data received, the LCD display will display the corresponding visual signals - a request for watering, sun, shade or affection.The next new product will end the dominancepets over plants. From now on, your rhododendron will no longer be silently horrified by the appearance of a cat, tearing off a precious leaf every day. The thing is that Planbot can walk! Solar panels are installed in the tub, allowing the device to move around the room following the elusive stream of sunlight. Squirrel Self-watering pot Squirrel (Brown-Green) - from 1280 rubles. p. Online store pichshop.ru Many people are personally familiar with the Squirrel pot, equipped with a simple self-watering device. "Squirrel" has been actively sold for a long time. This pot has a double bottom, connected to the ground with a special rope, through which water from the concentrator flows to the roots. The role of the squirrel itself is very simple: when there is enough water in the pot, it looks at the world with interest from its hollow, and as soon as the plant begins to furiously demand watering, the animal hides in horror in the depths of the double bottom. Aquafarm 4500 rub. Set for growing plants and caring for fish Another device for fans of silent pets is an aquafarm. It has many advantages. Firstly, you don’t need to water the plant: the fish will do it for you. Secondly, you don’t need to clean the aquarium: the plant, overwhelmed with gratitude, will take on this responsibility. It is especially useful for parents who intend to captivate their offspring with natural science, because a living example is always the best. True, during the vacation you will have to transfer the fish to a special, “vacation” type of food, which can be bought at a pet store. Self-watering pot p. IKEA The last in our review is the most ascetic device with self-watering. However, it received the most complex name - “Grenpeppar”. The device itself is simple to the point of yawning: it is a plastic pot with a double bottom and a symbolic price (249 rubles). However, you shouldn't rely entirely on technology, and you'll still have to put in a little work before leaving.

  • Tighten the curtain more tightly and place the plants on the floor. The less light, the slower the life processes, and hence the water, your green pets will need less.
  • Small plants can be covered with transparent caps or vessels: evaporation will settle on their walls, drain back into the soil and water the plant.
  • Remove the largest leaves.
  • Completely eliminate drafts.
  • Stop fertilizing plants a few weeks before departure.
