A human being would wither if he has to go without water for a considerable time. The same goes for plants. However, unlike plants, humans can search for water till their last breath and move around to find himself a drop to save his life. At least, he can ask or beg his fellowmen for water. Plants, on the other hand, die a muted death from thirst.
Plants are our saviors. And it’s only the moral duty of man to help them live, for their sake as well as ours. Designer Samgmin Bae not only realized this, but came up with something that might give many a thirsty plant a new life.
The Roly-Poly Pot works on the concept that plants fall over when they begin to die of thirst. The mechanism is, at the same time, simple and innovative. With the built-in water monitor and a balancing system, this pot could detect the humidity level of the soil based on the pre-setting, just as if it is begging for water. Using water as a counterweight, the pot slowly tips over when water levels are low in a pot. Believe it or not, the Roly Poly Pot can be adjusted to each plant’s individual and varied watering requirements!
Plants will have to wait a while longer for their ‘angel’, as the Roly Poly Pot is still in the concept stage. We sure hope such an ‘intelligent’ pot hits the market soon.
