The Smart Pot
As the rest of the creatures that inhabit the planet Earth, the plants that make up our flora need water to live, grow and continue playing. But the lack of tips that will enable them to acquire on its own brings into play our solidarity and above all our responsibility.
However, those who live a pretty hectic life or those who love the spectacle offered by the plants but have no interest in dealing with regular watering and easily forgotten, possibly see them die without remedy or delay. That is why the Julian Bergignat, creator of MonPot has the key.
Smart pot like MonPot is not nothing but a pot that “knows” when we water the plants. This knowledge has given him the information that we provide through a time indicator classic style “oven” with periods a day, a week or two weeks. The device consists of two needle-like stripes, one at the base of the pot and another at the top.
To set the timer, the indicator will move higher until the period sought. The pot starts a slow rotation as they pass the hours. When the needles or join lines, an LED light so intense that it is giving notice of time of irrigation.
Flower Arrangement: Color and Life at Home
It is indispensable place in the household living flower arrangements and which give the house of beauty and life and improve your mood. Depending on the size of the flowers, we have to select the perfect vase for the arrangement.
Those with the long stem should be placed in vases tall and thin, to straighten and give it body, because in short, wide pots and hanging will not look like they deserve. However, this type of vases are ideal for locating wide dried flowers, sand, salt or colored snails, also providing design and color.
While gladioli or everlasting flowers have a unique beauty, those that are in season are cheaper and, simultaneously, we are decorating our home to species that reflect the spirit of each season.
When choosing classes is important to avoid those who have dogs with yellow leaves, imperfect aspect or flowers that are open in excess, as this means they are not fresh and soon wither.
It is important to know that there are flowers and roses for all times, then the choice of arrangements is important to ask if we need them for everyday or a special event.
Indoor Plants: Camellias
These are beautiful plants to decorate the interior of our home. The camellias are showy plants and flowers can be red, white or bicolor, lack of fragrance. Then we will see the care necessary for their proper development.
Camellias have to be placed in a location with partial shade, these plants have a great resistance to cold. You need to be watered frequently camellias, always letting the water is stagnant and finish creating the opposite effect we want, that is rotting the plant.
The soil is required for this plant is a substrate with acid pH. It is necessary to remove dead branches, chunks of those components which have shoots and remove branches that cross or poorly located. Its to remove all elements that deform the specimen.
No need to prune a camellia when you have buds, but dawn after flowering. It is important that these plants are located inside the home in a cool and humid, so that in this way can flourish every year. From May have to move them outside, shielded from direct sunlight.
