From leaking bottles, to using the bath or buying an automatic kit there are plenty of options
Now that the summer holidays and warm weather are here many of us will be planning on taking a trip or two this summer. This is a great time for family and friends to spend some extra time together, but it can be tricky for those who have just spent weeks getting their garden just right, or years cultivating their houseplants.
To help you keep your plants watered whilst you're away, gardening expert Joshua Houston at Household Quotes has shared his top five tips. Use your bath Although it may sound strange, using your bath to keep your houseplants watered can be a helpful solution. Fill your bath with around 1cm to 2cm of water and place the plants inside it. You should make sure the plant pots have holes in the bottom. But if your bath doesn't get any direct sunlight, the kitchen sink may be the best option. You can also put a towel under the plants to protect the surfaces of the bath.
