An app for plants

Never forget to water houseplants again

Have you ever left it a day too late to water your favourite plant and found it hard to revive the plant to its former glory? Wouldn't it be easier if you'd received a notification on your phone a few days before to let you know that the plant needed watering?

The Flower Power monitor

The Flower Power is a wireless monitor you put in the ground next to your indoor or outdoor plants. The monitor's sensors measure how your plant is doing in terms of sunlight, air temperature, manure and soil. In addition to the sensors, the gadget is also equipped with Bluetooth, allowing the monitor to communicate with an app on your phone. So you get a notification if you plant needs to be moved into the shade or if it is thirsty. All you have to do is take heed of the notifications and do as they say!
