| meleahk's Full Review: Aqua Globes Plant Watering System As Seen On Tv |
Ever since I saw the commercial for the Aqua Globes; As seen on TV I just had to have them. I do not always remember to water my plants as I should and when I do I have the tendency to over water. When I saw that commercial my first thought was those things were made for me! At Christmas this past year (2008) I ordered some. I now can truly water my plants perfectly.
The Product
Aqua Globes; As seen on TV are truly amazing! All I had to do was fill them with water, and insert them into my plants. However, I had to make a hole in the plant so that the globes would not tip over. Since the globes will water for two weeks means it is good for me. It is easier to see the water in the globe because of the position that I have them and know when it is time to refill. That is so easy as well; remove, refill with water and insert back into my plants.
My Aqua Globes; As seen on TV came in a set of two. The price was 14.99 for one set. They are aqua colored. One has a white pattern on it and the other a mixture of orange, white and green. They are glass and are a little weighted but not so much that one cannot use them. They have a long glass shaft/stem on them with a slanted end so that they will slide into the plant easily. They are hand blown glass, which I thought was really cool. I once got to see a vase made from hand blown glass and have wanted something like that ever since. Now I do.
Uses
Aqua Globes; As seen on TV can be used in house plants, hanging plants and/or patio plants. The plants will absorb water as needed, making it easy not to over water or under water. “As the dirt becomes dry, it releases oxygen into the globe, which in turn releases the exact amount of water that your plant needs.” (“Taken from the box”)
Directions
The directions advise you to use a small stick or tool to make a hole in the soil of the plant. You are to make sure that the diameter of the hole is less than the diameter of the globes shaft. This is what will help the globe to not tip over. I used my small pinky finger and that worked fine for my plants. It is important to make the hole first. The globes will break if not put in correctly and tip over.
Fill the globe with water at an angle so that the air in the globe will go out of the globe. My plants are small and so one globe per plant is fine. However, if you have large plants it is recommended to used two globes per plant.
If you do not follow the instructions given correctly you will risk the globes breaking and someone getting hurt.
Aqua Globes; As seen on TV are distributed by “Allstar Products Groups” Hawthorne, NY. 10532.
How I Feel
I have so far enjoyed my Aqua Globes. They do seem to work just as the commercial and package state. My plants are happier too because I am not over or under watering them. I do like the colors and hope that in the future the company will make them in other colors so that they will color coordinate with peoples homes or patios better. Of course the aqua color is pretty enough that it too, looks good anywhere in the home.
I hope that this has helped in some kind of way.
