More and more people are looking to live in modern luxury apartments, but there are some sacrifices that come with choosing to live in such a stylish home. Now more than ever, while we've been forced to stay at home, people are realising that most apartments surroundings lack greenery, and very limited properties have access to a garden. For this reason, new property developers are now designing apartments with green space in mind because of the wellbeing benefits greenery can provide.

Plush apartment blocks are popular when living in the city as green spaces and urban developments such as parks and woodland can help people to live longer as they provide an excellent space for exercise, relaxation and a place to escape from the hustle and bustle of the city centre. Studies have shown that green spaces can reduce stress levels and boost mental and physical health.

Not only do green spaces help to lift spirits, but plants, fresh-flowers and succulents can also help to purify the air, making for a much safer and cleaner space. As well as improving air circulation, plants can also provide shade, generating a cooling effect, which helps to lower air temperature, and so greenery is often associated as a way of reducing energy costs in the home.

If you haven't been fortunate enough to grab yourself an apartment that already has a dedicated green space or garden terrace, then you may need to think outside the box and experiment with how you could bring the outdoors in. Fortunately, there are multiple ways to do this, and it doesn't have to take up too much space either. Below are just a few suggestions on how you could add more greenery to your apartment.

Mosquitoes are terrible. Not only are they irritating, not only do their bites cause irritation, but they spread serious diseases. Compounding the issue are certain corporations conducting experiments on these bugs. Oxitec designed genetically modified mosquitoes in Brazil engineered to die young, and apparently they did not.

The hope is that some altered group of insects like this doesn’t become a scourge to society. However, the reality with scientific exploits is far from spotless. Such altered mosquitoes are cause for concern. Think about this: normal, “healthy” mosquitoes spread all kinds of diseases. Who knows what modified mosquitoes could do!

Gardening can be considered as one of the oldest hobbies known to man. However, this is under the umbrella of agriculture, which is the general term for taking care of plants. It might also be called domestication, since most of the plants that we know today are offsprings of the wild ones. This post will discuss more about indoor smart gardens.

Gardening, on the other hand, has its own differences. For example, it is usually contained in a small area around the house. The plants being grown in a garden are quite small as well. According to this article, shrubs and greens are some of the most popular options. If you have a nice and wide backyard, a garden is a good way to take up all of that space.

Choosing the right boiler for your greenhouse heating system can be quite challenging due to the multitude of options. With Toronto being at the forefront of urban gardening in Canada, it is crucial for your business to stay on top of your competition. With this, you have to invest in a top-quality greenhouse heating system. When doing so, you would want to get something that is within your budget without restricting your operations.

Not everybody has an outdoor space where they can grow plants, which can feel a bit like you are missing out. Some people opt to get an allotment or find a close-by community garden where they can grow fruit, vegetables, and plants. In this post we will discuss about growing fresh herbs around the year.

However, you might not have anything like that near you or you might not be able to afford an allotment. But not to worry because plants such as herbs can be grown inside too!

Living in an RV often calls for trade-offs. You give up the space of the average home for the freedom of the road. You give up your yard, but this doesn't mean you can't grow fruits, vegetables and other types of plants. The post will provide information about what fruits and vegetables in an RV you can grow and how.
