Home automation has been one of the latest trends with the advances in modern technology.  These options have been more and more affordable for the everyday homeowner to add simple tech features to your home to make your life just a bit simpler.  Smart products have made their way into gardening and I’ve highlighted some of the best.

Indoor Gardening

As gardeners, most of our time is spent outdoors, but often times we have various projects going on indoors.  This can range from starting seeds indoors, keeping plants indoors away from problematic weather, or to just grow house plants.  Gardening is definitely not limited to an outdoor space.  Here are a few products that will enhance your indoor gardening experience.

This grow light utilizes an LED bulb, so you don’t get that purple glow to it.  LEDs are proven to be more energy efficient and produce more power.  We know those problems that can come from leggy seedlings and this grow light is perfect for minimizing the risk of that with your started seeds.  An overall great product for getting your seedlings going indoors.

Seedfactor MET certified Seedling Heat Mat

Often times we start our seeds during the colder times of the year which can really slow do the germination rate.  I also do a lot of tropical fruit tree seeds which need that heat.  This heat may works great for speeding up the germination time and provided that needed warmth.

If you live in an apartment or condo and lack that backyard space, indoor gardening can be a great alternative.  There are several amazing options out there and I wanted to give you my two favorite options.
