You may be familiar with many of those As Seen on TV products. Some seem too good to be true and others, many believe, could be scams. However, a new product that has a lot of buzz is the new Aqua Globe. These little bulbs will water your plants for you perfectly, every time! However, how much credibility can be given to these little globes?
So what are these Aqua Globes? They are little glass ornaments that will water your plants for you. It contains a hand crafted bulb with a long stem attached. This bulb contains the amount of water needed to feed your plant and this stem is injected into the soil. As the soil dries, the stem will drip a little bit of water to keep your plant hydrated all of the time. They claim that the Aqua Globe will hydrate your soil for 2 weeks!
You have probably heard these claims and wonder if they are too good to be true. Well let’s see how this product works. When the soil of your plant dries, oxygen is released. This oxygen creates an infiltration in your bulb. This allows water to creep out. This water is just enough to keep your plant satisfied without over or under watering.
Does it work? From my experience it has worked very well. You do have to do a few things to ensure proper performance. You must refill every 2 weeks and be careful not to clog the end of the stem with dirt. To get around this problem, simply poke a hole first and then inset the stem. This worked for me.
One obstacle that you must come to terms with is the appearance of the product. Make sure that you are content with having the bulb where your plants are. I like the way they look, but some may not. If you do you believe they take away visual value, then you should be ok.
As far as functionality, the Aqua Globe is unsurpassed. This truly makes having great plants a breeze. I always receive compliments on my plants and many believe that I do a lot to keep them looking so healthy. Truthfully, I am lazy and simply use the Aqua Globe. But hey, who’s complaining?
