Most people have been forced to throw away a pot-plant after its death. There are many reasons to the death of a plant, but mainly it‘s because its owner forgets it, and therefore fails to water it. The purpose of this project is therefore to develop a product which can prevent this from happening, while the product has to have a low manufacturing cost to be able to compete whit other, similar, products on the market. During the project, a benchmarking has been done to give a clear picture of what the product has to compete with. The directives there are for CE-marking, and which of these who concerns the product has also been looked up. The result of the project is a product called The Plant Guard. The Plant Guard can be used on a wide selection of pot-plants, from plants who crave a very dry soil to those who crave a very wet soil.
