Bitponics is a device and a website that will simplify hydroponic gardening. You tell it about your setup and what plants you're growing, and it provides you with a personalized growing plan that tells you how to achieve the best possible results. Sensors in your garden send readings to your account on the Bitponics website. The website then processes that information and sends notifications back to your device to control things such as pumps and lights. You can track your results and share your experiences with other users, so that we all help each other become better gardeners.

The wildly inconsistent and illogical weather patterns in Washington DC lately have me as confused as the poor little shrubs and flowers in my garden. They bloomed early only to be blasted with some sneaky little bouts of overnight frost. But I have put away the winter clothes and embracing Spring, whether or not my garden has that luxury. Here are some botanical-inspired accessories to help us step into Spring in earnest. More
