Using HydroSpike is convenient, but when you want to increase your supply of water, “daisy chain” a series of water containers with some tubing and use the siphon principle to increase the supply of water to your plants. One of our customers also suggests to use standard tubing, for example 1/4 inch diameter when connecting the water containers. Thanks for great feedback HydroSpike customers! You guys are the best!
Check out our first video production! Automatic Vacation Plant Watering with HydroSpike TM. Happy Plants & Happy Owners, a HydroSpike specialty 🙂 We also like to laugh, so hope you get a little chuckle out of our video. Hope to have more videos to share in the future. Keep up the vacationing, we got your plants covered!
We love this plant that has cascading waxy leaves, so shiny! HydroSpike is great when we go on vacation or don’t have time to water the plants. The plant is an indoor plant, and it sits on an outdoor patio set…that we moved indoors! The wood patio set was too nice of a set to leave outside to rot. Why not use it as indoor furniture?!
Ficus benjamina, commonly known as the Weeping Fig, Benjamin’s Fig, or the Ficus Tree and often sold in stores as just a “Ficus”, is a species of fig tree, native to south and southeast Asia and Australia. We love our ficus, and have a massive tree that is 30+ years in our living room. This is our smaller plant, and is getting its daily drink from HydroSpike. The trees can grow large, so when on vacation, put in a few HydroSpikes, especially in warm weather. The tree will need the hydration if gone for a couple of weeks.
This plant, the lovely Shooting Star, in all its white splendor and glory cheers us up here at HydroSpike. This plant cannot be under harsh sunlight, and definitely needs watering in warmer weather. If you are busy, on vacation (or holiday), be sure to set up a HydroSpike system so you will come back to its beautiful blooms. It starts to bloom less towards the end of summer. For all you married men, the shooting star plant is a perfect gift to give to your wife…she is your shooting star.
HydroSpike works well for watering smaller sized plants. Isn’t this little guy pretty cute?? Healthy and green with automatic plant waterer – HydroSpike
HydroSpike’s very existence is all about addressing this crucial problem that gardeners and plant owners face. How to keep plants alive while we are away?? Especially in hot weather. Here is HydroSpike in action! This large leafed plant needs water, and it seems to be doing fine for 2 weeks at a time when we are gone…The plant is pretty large, which then needs multiple spikes.
One of our favorite water plants. We bring the water plant outdoors in the winter and bring back in the summer. This way when it would die in the cold weather, we don’t have to buy new ones in the summer!
HydroSpike is saying hello to the world with the start of our blog! Planting, Watering, Gardening!
