The Hozelock Healthy Hobbies Survey revealed that more than half of adults count gardening as a hobby, with 70% spending more time sprucing up their garden during lockdown than ever before.
But with lockdown easing and summer holidays back on the cards, consumers are now on the hunt for automatic watering solutions which will allow their gardens to continue to thrive even in their absence.
Automatic watering systems help to reduce or completely remove the daily task of manually walking around the garden to water the lawn or plants individually. For those gardeners planning a summer holiday, whether that’s abroad or in the UK, an automatic watering system will be appealing to help keep plants alive without having to rely on neighbours or family members.
Gardens can continue to flourish this summer with Hozelock’s Select Controller, ideal for those gardeners looking to start enjoying the benefits of automatic watering. The Select Controller is simple to install, straightforward to adjust, and features 16 different pre-set watering programmes which are customisable to suit all gardening needs.
Hozelock’s 25 Pot Watering Kit delivers automatic watering solutions for borders, veg patches, patio pots, hanging baskets and greenhouse plants, providing another opportunity for garden centre retailers to help maximise sales and up-sell products. The kit features a Sensor Plus Controller, which is an electronic water timer and daylight sensor that automatically waters the garden at the best time of day - sunrise and sunset.
Both products feature a ‘water now’ button which allows for immediate watering from 10 minutes up to 60 minutes, whilst turning off automatically after the time is complete, which ensures water is used carefully.
Hozelock’s range of automatic watering systems offer effective watering solutions for any type of garden – helping to reduce water usage without compromising on caring for the garden.
