Going on holiday is something that each of us looks forward to. We usually go on a trip in the summer, when it is warm and we have a chance to find nice weather. Unfortunately, it is during this time that our plants need more watering. High temperatures mean that the substrate quickly loses moisture and the flowers ask for another dose of water. How to protect them during your vacation?
How to make a flower humidifier? You need two things
You can ask a family member or neighbor to take care of the flowers. However, not everyone has this opportunity and somehow they have to cope on their own. You won’t take the plants with you to the sea or the mountains, so you need to keep them safe at home while you’re away. Growing healthy and beautiful flowers takes a lot of time, so no one would like to find yellow leaves and brown petals when they return.
A flower waterer comes to the rescue. This is not a product from a garden store, just an ordinary paper towel. Pour water into a glass and place it right next to the pot. Tear off four sheets of towel and roll them into a roll. It should be as thin as a straw. Dip one end of the towel into a glass of water and put the other end into the pot. This way, the plants will take up water themselves.

I go on vacation. What about flowers?
During your vacation, move it to a shaded place, e.g. a staircase or a bathroom. Don’t leave them on the windowsill or with the blinds open. The sun can be very hot, and when you’re not at home, you won’t have any control over how it affects your flowers. You can place them on larger and thicker stands into which you can pour water. Another proven method is to make a water dispenser from a plastic bottle. Choose one with a capacity of 0.5 l. Make a few small holes in the cork, fill the bottle halfway with water and place it upside down in the pot. The water will drip freely, so the plants will always have a moist substrate.
