That’s what it’s called—Click and Grow. Sure, not as sexy as calling it the iPot, but I’m pretty sure the big fruit company in Cupertino already trademarked that name. The Click and Grow is a battery-powered flower pot that does your indoor gardening for you. In short, it’s the lazy version of a dull orange clay flowerpot.
So it’s not on the bleeding edge of current technology—if it were, then it should come with Bluetooth connectivity for no apparent reason—but the manufacturers swear that it’s a miracle in plant nurturing. Also, thanks to fast food and video games, few people have green thumbs these days, so maybe we’d better let the ‘machines’ do the grunt work.
How Click and Grow Works
The Click and Grow is such a novel addition to any household because it automates the usual routine when taking care of plants. A supply of water juices the roots and plant cartridges are available so the owner can choose what to grow. The system uses a combination of sensors, software, and nutrients to ensure that your plants get exactly what they need to thrive. The sensors monitor the plant’s environment and adjust the water and nutrient delivery accordingly. This means that even if you forget to water your plant or give it the right nutrients, the Click and Grow has you covered.
The plant cartridges are pre-seeded and contain all the necessary nutrients for the plant’s growth. This makes it incredibly easy to start growing your own herbs, flowers, or even small vegetables. Just insert the cartridge, add water, and let the Click and Grow do the rest. The cartridges are available in a variety of options, including basil, thyme, mini tomatoes, and even strawberries.
Benefits of Using Click and Grow
One of the biggest advantages of using the Click and Grow is its convenience. For those who live in urban areas with limited access to outdoor gardening space, this device offers a practical solution. It allows you to bring a bit of nature indoors without the hassle of traditional gardening. Moreover, it can be a great educational tool for children, teaching them about plant growth and responsibility in a fun and interactive way.
Another benefit is the potential for self-sufficiency. Imagine growing your own herbs and vegetables right in your kitchen. This not only ensures that you have fresh produce at your fingertips but also reduces your carbon footprint by cutting down on the need for store-bought items that have been transported over long distances.
The Click and Grow also appeals to those who may not have a natural talent for gardening. The automated system takes the guesswork out of plant care, making it accessible for everyone, regardless of their gardening experience. This can be particularly beneficial for elderly individuals or those with physical limitations that make traditional gardening challenging.
So if you find your workspace bereft of life and more importantly, better get yourself one of these. The Click and Grow is now available for ordering at just 59 euros. This price point makes it an affordable option for anyone looking to add a touch of greenery to their home or office.
