Before being away from home for a long time, you need to take care of the well-being of your indoor plants so that they do not need watering.
Advanced housewives have long used one trick that allows them not to turn to neighbors or friends for help.
With this trick, you won't have to worry about the future of your "green pets" before leaving on vacation or a business trip.
Houseplants will have to be prepared for the owners' long absence. A regular dishwashing sponge will help with this.
Before leaving, small pieces of sponge should be placed on the bottom of the pot. They can be pre-moistened or watered before placing the foam pieces.
Even experienced gardeners recommend this trick. It is no secret that sponges for washing accumulate moisture. Therefore, it can save a flower from drying out of the soil if there is no one to water it.
The trick will help if the absence lasts from several days to a week and a half. It is important to remember that succulents can do without watering for 2 weeks. Therefore, this trick is more relevant for capricious flowers that need regular watering.
