Gardening when you Go Away

Gardening when you Go Away

Are you Renting out your house and what happens to the garden – will they water it.

Think about your plants, do you have a watering system, is this sufficient for your plants and your lawns.  If you do not have one, it may be a good idea, to look into this as you are not able to ensure that it will rain while you are away.

If you are going away on holiday and intend to rent your property out while away you may wish to invest in a watering system.   Putting one in can be described as Lego for adults, and can be fun in laying the tubing down and working where and how many water outlets you require and in what direction.

This can be fun as the sprays when you are working out where to put them – can accidently spray you  – this can be funny for the person watching or helping you

You will also require an automatic timer for the  watering system so you can set it to water every couple of days while you are away.

If you are time poor, then employ someone to come and do this for you.

This will help your tenants, as some tenants will water your plants, but a lot won’t they are on holiday and do not want to be pestered with the watering of someone else’s property.

To ensure your plants are still alive when you return from your holidays, it woud be best to investigate watering systems now.

It is something that people do tend to forget but no one wishes to return from a great holiday to walk in and see their garden is brown – gardens enhance your property whether you are in a house with a garden or an apartment with pots.

There are easy watering systems out there and there are intricate watering systems, it will depend on what you wish to purchase.  You may wish to look at the drip system as this water will be directed at the plant and not all around the paths etc.  The water is not wasted and goes where it is meant to on the plant.

The garden is a good selling point for your property and the photographs of your property for the rental market.  People will view the photos and imagine themselves sitting in the lovely well kept garden enjoying a drink or a quiet chat with friends.

Your garden is your outside room so needs to be kept smart as well.

Ensure that you have cleaned your garden and fertilized before you depart this will feed your plants and keep them going while you are away.

If you have indoor plants, they may wish to go outside in a protected area while you are away – not everyone is good with indoor plants, and they may overwater them or forget to water them.  Or organise a friend to take the plants or a relative.

Plants enhance your house – trees make your house cooler in summer – they give shade and the flowers are beautiful

Sweeping leaves can be a pain but this is a minor job in the garden and can be enjoyable

Make your home enjoyable, easy to live in while you are not there, easy to maintain and make the most of it.

Good planning is brilliant for when you go away.  It is easier if you commence this prior to the last minute.  This is when hassles develop and you finally leave on your holiday stressed upset and tired

Gardens no matter where you are require water to enhance your property
