Cool it Day 2

.... Morning fellas!!....
I am trying to make an impact locally, working directly with my kids, and their activities creating respect for themselves while learning more sustainable lifestyles. Just recently, we worked on renewing our house yard and I have tried using a different approach while designing how we could improve the use of water while conserving our garden. My kids were astonished with the test we conducted, while "trapping" water.... it`s been already six months since we started some experiments using this technique with some flower pots and a small tree (still in a large pot) and worke fine. Therefore, we were ready to implement the use of these plastic salts in the yard itself. We mixed the soil with them, considering the depth at which these plastic salts were going to work much better and afterwards, we placed the new grass on the top. It´s been three weeks since the new grass has been planted and roots have developed much faster than expected. The watering frequency has been normal so far, and it is expected to be maintained as such yet for the next couple of months. The goal I believe we have achieved already is that the plastic salts in the ground have expanded due to the water that has been trapped due to its chemical properties, and now the new roots will start reclaiming the water in much more efficient manner. I will keep an update in this "think globally-act locally" family experiment that tries to use technology even in the most day-to-day activities in our life.
