Going on vacation soon?
And you wonder how your plants will survive while you're away?
No need to find someone or pay for a service to get your plants watered!
Fortunately, there is an automatic system to easily water your plants when you are not there and prevent them from dying.
The trick is to use a pan filled with water and some yarn . Watch:
- 1 large saucepan or 1 bowl
- 1 stool or 1 stepladder
- wool yarn
1. Fill the pot with water.
2. Place it high on the stool.
3. Place your plants around the stool.
4. Cut the wool yarn into several fairly long pieces.
5. Wet the pieces of wool.
6. Put one end of the wire in the bottom of the pan.
7. Bury the other end in the ground at least 2 cm deep.
There you go, now you know how to water your plants during the holidays :-)
Easy, fast and efficient, right?
No more plants that died of thirst while you were away!
If you don't have wool yarn, you can also use cotton string.
You can also put a basin instead of the saucepan.
To leave peacefully on vacation, it is important to provide a sufficient quantity of water.
Especially since water tends to evaporate when it's hot!
Count 1 liter of water per week for about 2 plants.
So if you leave for 2 weeks, count 2 liters of water.
If you leave for 3 weeks, count 3 liters of water.
By putting the water pan on high, your plants receive a regular supply of water.
The water runs gently over the woolen thread as soon as the plant is thirsty. The liquid is transported by capillarity.
In addition, it works for all types of plants:green plants, succulents, succulents, flowers, etc.
