Compost Bins and Plant Lights



After completing your watering and hand tools you need to have a compost bin and a plant light. If you have dead plants like grasses, leaves, shrubs, leftover food, vegetables and fruits, you can place it in a compost bin to create an organic compost. Compost conditions the soil that adds moisture and nutrients to the plant. It is good for mother nature to use recycled compost since you make use of waste and help clean the environment. Make sure that the compostable waste to use are either nitrogen or carbon based materials as this creates enzymes that helps tenderize your compost. A good compost smells good so if your finished product doesn't smell right, it's better to discard it because the smell might reach your neighbors.




Another gardening supply that should be on hand is the plant light. If sunshine is out of reach because your plant is inside the house or the weathers not right, the solution is to use plant lights that can be your plants' indoor best friend. I bought an intelligent plant light from an online shop and it does everything for my plant even when I'm at work. It can be programmed to turn and off and signals when the plant needs to be watered. It is a tabletop lamp that can be adjusted up to 14 inches tall. It's great for decorative potted plants since the flower with lamp light adds focal point to your house.  This is the ideal gift you can give to your office mate or friend that already have plants in containers on their tabletop. This is a great solution for flowers that doesn't bloom or flower interiors that needs moisture like orchids, violets and kitchen herbs. A plant light doesn't only help your plants grow but also serves as a lamp that can add light to any parts of the house.
