Around the House : Keep Your Plants Fed While on Vacation

You're headed for a nice relaxing vacation, you don't have pets, but you have a few plants and you'd rather not pay someone to take care of them for the week.

Take a disposable baby diaper and soak it in water. Place the plant on the diaper and it will slowly water it throughout the week for free.

The absorbent part of a diaper is made of polymer powder and cotton to keep a baby dry. This surface can hold a lot of water and doesn't give it up easily. The hydrophilic material is a perfect babysitter for your plants.
