I FOUND A COOL ITEM AT "BIG LOTS". IT'S CALLED GREEN GENIUS. ITS AN AUTOMATIC WATERING SYSTEM. COST $3.99 EACH AND HOLDS 1.5 GALLONS OF WATER. YOU CAN SET IT TO WATER ANY TIMES BETWEEN 4 TIMES A DAY UP TO 1 A WEEK. YOU CAN SET IT TO DELIVER ANY AMOUNT OF WATER, BETWEEN 1 ML TO 1000 ML. WILL POST PICS IF NEEDED. ITS A GREAT BABY SITTER IF YA HAVE TO LEAVE TOWN FOR A FEW DAYS.
