Maybe some people are thinking about things like that now.

People buying more plants, garden tools while in quarantine: 'We've seen a tremendous spike'
By April Hardwick | New York Post


New Yorkers are going green while in quarantine.

Folks on lockdown are buying up plants to decorate their pads — in part because those with black thumbs are around 24/7 to care for them and in part because they are soothing during stressful times.

Since New Jersey’s stay-at-home order took effect on March 21, stage manager Zach Schiffman has purchased 18 plants via Amazon Prime. “I was skeptical about mail-order plants, but once I got a perfect plant from a farm in Florida, I decided to order others,” says Schiffman, 33, of Fort Lee, NJ.

Also the owner of a photo-booth company called Studio Z, Schiffman adds that caring for his plants has given him something to focus on other than Lego and video games while furloughed. He has set up Bluetooth-enabled plant monitors, also purchased from Amazon, that alert him via a notification on his phone when a plant needs food or water.

    WTF Bluetooth plant monitors?  The younger generations are way too dependent upon technology.  Whatever happened to physically observing plants and the soil?  I guess they need to be prodded from their Legos and video games.

They can't feel the dirt to check how dry it is.  That would be dirty and they might get infected.  Call the doc and get some antibiotics.
