Sustainable Cultivation Units

Posted on May 8, 2013 by Troy Turner Posted in Garden, Gardening, Green

Hakan Gürsu’s Living Pots are a series of thoughtfully produced planters for the urban gardener who’s conscious of their carbon footprint. Composed of 100% recyclable and reused wood and metal, they make use of lumber scraps that would otherwise be thrown out or burned after truncation. With a minimal number of parts, each unit is flat-pack ready and easy to assemble. Better yet, they can be nested to create vertical gardens where space is limited. Check out the vid to see how it’s done —>

Sweet Side Of Gardening

Posted on January 2, 2013 by Radhika Seth Posted in Garden, Gardening

The Sweet Pot is an innovative plant pot design where the bottom basin acts as a growth patch for extra grass. Essentially the design takes care of excessive watering and drainage at the same time. More like the extra water acts like a feed for the grass patch at the bottom, hence no drains required. The Sweet Slide is a tool that aids watering the plant comfortably. Super cute and super efficient!

Green Thumbs Up

Posted on November 22, 2012 by Troy Turner Posted in Garden, Gardening, Plant

Pod is a thoughtful indoor gardening system expands on the trend of growing herbs and veggies in smaller, urban dwellings by making it easier than ever to share and trade produce with friends and neighbors- literally cultivating a sense of community! The plug-and-play system automatically disperses nutrients and H20 in the form of fog rather than liquid, making it cleaner and easier to care for. The modular pods are perfect for trading with friends or creating a custom gift that you’ve grown yourself. See how it works!

Designers: Casey Lin, Adam Ben-Dror, Robert Skene, Nick Johnston

Easy Chemical Free Fertilizing

Posted on September 19, 2012 by Troy Turner Posted in Garden, Gardening

The EcoFeed fertilizing system utilize natural material such as compost & nettles to create a liquid fertilizer, known as compost tea, which helps plant growth & prevents disease. Simply add homemade compost into the filter basket & connect the product to your outdoor hose. Hose water running through the tank creates a siphon, mixing the concentrated compost tea with the water which dilutes the mixture for use on plants. No need for harmful chemical fertilizers!

World of Worms

Posted on July 26, 2012 by Troy Turner Posted in Garden, Gardening

Like many kids (and much to my parents dismay), I was mesmerized by worms! The Miniville compost system capitalizes on this obsession, teaching kids the importance of worms and composting through an interactive, modular “city” structure that gives little ones a first-hand look into the process so they can… well… see how worms work!

The Rake Protector

Posted on March 22, 2012 by Troy Turner Posted in Garden, Gardening

The rake can be a useful tool for cleaning up your lawn or garden, but it can also be quite cumbersome when you’re storing or moving it. The simple-named Rake concept offers a solid solution that makes this tool easier to manage. An ABS polymer sheath that extends from the handle protects the stainless steel “teeth” when it’s not in use and keeps them from getting tangled up with your other tools – simply place a foot on the triangle and push to start using!
