Keeping office plants healthy can feel like a lot of work, especially in larger spaces. Automated watering systems promise to make this task easier, but are they the right choice for your office? Let’s weigh the pros and cons.

The Benefits

Consistency: Automated systems provide just the right amount of water at regular intervals, reducing the risk of over- or underwatering.
Time-Saving: No more weekly watering rounds. Systems take care of the work for you.
Scalability: Ideal for offices with many plants or large installations like green walls.

The Downsides

Initial Cost: Setting up an automated system can be expensive.
Maintenance Needs: These systems require periodic checks and occasional repairs.
Not Foolproof: Automated systems can fail, leading to dry plants if not monitored.
