First Day of Spring – We have your smart garden tech

Welcome to the first day of spring. It doesn't really feel like it in many areas, but it soon will. It's going to start warming up, and—with all of this social distancing time you're spending indoors—you're really going to want to get outside. With the possible extra time you have on your hands, why not get around to starting that garden with some of these gardening tools?

We’re still on the early side of social distancing and the extreme measures we’re all forced to take to combat the spread of coronavirus. But slowing a pandemic (and hopefully stopping it in its tracks) is a good thing. You might already be itching to get outside, especially since it’s the first day of spring. And, while many of us are unable to drive to the park due to travel restrictions, one of the things we can still do is get out in our hards and get our hands in the dirt. To grow and create and foster new life. And there is some great smart garden tech that can help you.

Perhaps you’ve never gardened before, and you’re worried about forgetting to water your plants. Don’t worry; there are planters for that. And we even have smart lights that can motion activate to scare some of those critters away if you don’t want to invest in putting a fence or chicken wire around your garden. Unfortunately, no matter what happens in your day-to-day life, your grass is still going to grow. And we’re guessing your HOA isn’t going to get any less lenient regarding the state of your lawn.

So take a deep breath, get the supplies you need, and get gardening with our smart garden tech suggestions.
