Do you have an imminent move or are you planning to go on vacation soon? Then you don’t have the opportunity to water your plants as usual. There is no need to bother the neighbor or a member of his family. There are always simple and ingenious ways to solve this problem and ensure the survival of your beloved plants. What a peaceful trip!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Of course, whatever the species, watering plants is essential to develop each stage of their growth as best as possible. However, as a general rule, if they receive a lot of water, they can suffer damage to the roots, but also to the stems and leaves. And on the contrary, if they do not receive enough, they risk drying out and dying in a short time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are some clever techniques to water your plants without wasting water and without breaking the bank either. Thanks to these solutions, for several days, you will no longer need to manually water your potted plants or underground plants, including your garden. This will allow you to go on vacation or a weekend without worries and without asking your loved ones for help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How does this trick work?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At first glance, this solution may seem laborious, but rest assured, in less than 5 minutes you can prepare each irrigation device. The first step is to get plastic bottles of two different sizes: you can combine half-liter bottles and 1.5-liter bottles, or 1.5-liter bottles and 3-liter bottles. Keep in mind that the larger the containers, the longer the water load will last. Depending on your needs, get plastic containers of different sizes and follow the instructions to have your own irrigation system at zero cost and with zero environmental impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The advantages of this irrigation system<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"irrigation<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

As you know, the warmer the temperatures, the more plants need to be watered. With the arrival of good weather, you will love this fully automatic, very practical and free system. Each drop falls directly to the ground without projecting onto the pots, but always ending up a few centimeters from the roots. As an added bonus, you can recycle plastic bottles as well as pots and jars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

the filter mat<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you have a lot of houseplants in pots, you can use an even simpler method. Simply place a small cloth under the plants on a flat surface. Part of the fabric should be immersed in a container filled with water, which should be placed at a lower level than where the plants are. In this way, the water will rise in the soil and thus water the plants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The communicating siphon<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Another very effective method to water your plants: the communicating siphon. You will only need a bottle if there is only one plant to water, or a larger container if there are several, and long strips of filter cloth or wool fabric. One end of the strips should be placed at the bottom of the bucket or bottle and the other end 2 or 3 cm below the ground, moistening each strip well before inserting it. The water container should always be placed a little higher than the pots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The inverted bottle<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"inverted<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Before going on vacation, this trick will be easy to adopt: you just need to fill plastic water bottles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If your plant is small, you can use\u00a0\u00a0 half-liter\u00a0bottles\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0or liter bottles if it is larger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After filling the bottle with water, poke small holes in the lid and return it to the pot with the lid sunk into the ground. In this way, the water drains away little by little without wetting the soil too much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drill holes in the soil and submerge the plant in a container.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When the soil becomes very dry, it must be rehydrated very carefully. Rapid and abundant watering will only create stagnation of water at the bottom and the plant will not be able to get completely wet. To remedy this situation: make a hole in the ground, being careful not to damage the roots, and place the plant with its pot in a container with water. After about an hour, the plant will rehydrate again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cut the dry parts and sprinkle the green parts.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After removing the plant from the container, squeeze out any excess water. It is also important to cut off all the dry parts. Dead leaves, branches and holes must be removed so that the plant can fully regenerate  . <\/a> Remember to spray the green leaves with distilled water or rainwater. Thereafter, avoid placing the bush in a place that is too sunny. It is best to place it in a cool, shady place and wait for it to grow back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
