Indoor Watering Hose?

Hey!

I had the same predicament since I have so many in my basement and I was so tired of carrying my watering can up and down the stairs. I use the watering vine which is just a hose that attaches directly to your sink/ faucet. It's pretty affordable and has made watering my house plants soooo much easier. I included the link below:

I actually had a bunch of them kickin around - think they ended up in a bucket of mud remaining behind the shed to this very day. they had a rubber fitting for the faucet and like 20+ feet of 1/4 inch thin tubing. They were from the 70's early 80's i'm pretty sure. I'm sure i would have kept one of them - i will find the brand name for you in the next few days if it is not too much work - i hope i kept at leat one and still useable.
You can buy 10 feet of vyinyl tubing for 10 bucks where i am in canada. little connectors and spigots and stuff for a few buck each. They also make dishwasher faucet connections but they are probably a little more expensive.

Actually, I DID hook a garden hose up to my kitchen faucet. It worked fine, just that the thingy at the end of the hose that you clamp on and off was a bit drippy.

I had cataract surgery last year. The first two weeks you are supposed to not lift more than 10 pounds or bend more than 90 degrees at the waist. I use four rooms in the basement for wintering plants running about 90 shop lights. There is no way I could water these plants by hand just getting 10 pounds or less of water per trip to the bathroom. My solution was getting the adapter from shower hose to garden hose at Home Depot. My first hose was too short to reach to the farthest corner of the basement so I got a 75 footer to fix that problem. These are the light weight hoses you can find almost anywhere (don't get the ones "As seen on TV" though as I tried two and both busted in no time). These are the H2O Flex - not perfect but so far the best I've seen. I wished I had done this years ago as this is so easy to water hundreds of plants in no time.

Attach the hose to the kitchen sink faucet to water houseplants and indoor seedlings. The indoor hose gets water where it's needed. Safely move about your home with no mess
