Smart gardens are a fairly new trend that has been steadily gaining momentum in recent years among people around the world.
PLANTUI SMART GARDEN is a desktop hydroponic smart garden that was developed by the Finnish company Plantui.
It can be placed anywhere, so the device can be adapted to the size of the plant and its growth rate.
The body of the device is made of the highest quality plastic, and the outer parts are painted with metallized paint.
In addition, the company periodically sells stylized, single-color versions of its development. Smart features of Plantui Smart Garden
- Sleep timer – the device’s LEDs are quite bright.
However, scientists have proven that plants need about eight hours a day to recuperate.
Therefore, Plantui Smart Garden has a sleep timer that can be programmed for any time.
The developers recommend choosing the period from 23:00 to 7:00.
To start it, you need to put your hand on the corresponding button and press it for three seconds.
After that, the light should go out. - Light on/off – the user can manually turn the light on and off.
This does not affect the sleep mode. - Holiday vacation – if you are going on a trip or will be away from home for a while, you can activate a pause for this time, which allows your gadget to work autonomously for up to two weeks.
This way, the plants you grow will consume less water and the light will turn pink. - Light and water – Plantui Smart Garden adjusts the amount of water your plants consume depending on their growth phase, as well as the spectrum of light they receive.
This is designed to meet the specific needs of the flora.
The light will change its color to purple and will change along with the watering cycle as soon as the first height block is installed. - Low water level indicator – if there is not enough water in your device to operate the water pump, the indicators will automatically start flashing blue, so you should constantly check for sufficient water in the special bowl of the gadget to avoid malfunctions.
- Cleaning mode – to do this, you need to use citric acid and activate the cleaning mode, i.e. put your hand on the button and press it for 15 seconds.
A blue or green light (depending on the model) will notify you that the cleaning process has started.
How the lighting and irrigation system works in Plantui Smart GardenLighting system At the top of the device is a lighting system for growth.
It consists of a set of LEDs for each plant.
This set includes three LEDs with different wavelengths.
This provides a balanced spectral composition necessary for plant growth.
Lighting control is very simple.
The photoperiod is 16 hours during the day and 8 hours at night.
The light can be turned off at any time by placing your hand on the top of the device. Watering system The watering system is also very convenient and efficient to use.
It is a hydroponic system, meaning that the seeds are placed in slots and supported by an unlimited substrate, rock wool.
The capsules containing rock wool hold the base of the plant throughout its life, its roots grow outside the capsule, trying to get more water. Plant capsules With plant capsules, the user can easily grow vegetables, herbs, and flowers.
They contain seeds and soil.
Since the growth rate of plants is different, the developers have prepared several versions of capsules, which are divided into categories depending on growth and flowering time.
To choose the same capsule, you need to pay attention to its color, which corresponds to the selected category. Plantui Smart Garden app Plantui has entered into a partnership with the German company Bosch.
They sell selected products under their SmartGrow brand.
These products are one hundred percent compatible, as they are a renamed original version of Plantui devices.
In addition, the partner company has launched the Bosch SmartGrow app, which has an English-language version and is a good addition to the smart garden.
With this app, the user can control the growth of their plants, as well as monitor the need to change the water, when to harvest or buy new capsules.
The app also contains a series of culinary recipes for every taste.
So, Plantui Smart Garden is a very useful, easy-to-use device that is well thought out and beautifully designed.
It helps you grow different plants throughout the year and you don’t need to put any effort into this process.
The device will do everything for you.
