The Roly-Poly Pot is a very clever idea that allow us to know when our plants need water designed by Samgmin Bae. With this pot you can know exactly when plants are thirsty. Using water a a counterweight, the pot slowly tips over when water levels are low, as you can see in the pictures below. . The cool thing is each pot can be adjusted to work with any plant’s watering needs. The bad new is that the Roly-Poly Pot is just a concept for now, but let’s hope that soon we will see inteligent pots like this in our homes. - Via - Yankodesign

Interesting! The last demonstration photo cracks me up. I think I’d know if my plant needed water not because it’s tipped over, but because it looks like it’s dying.

Not every plant dies instantly, when water has run out.
