New Text: I need to be watered.. thanx nigga.

Now I thought getting my Twitter as texts was some crazy shit but these Israeli's are way past that. They have apparently created a sensor that will, alert you by text when your plant needs to be watered.

I guess the Israel Agricultural Ministry plant physiologist(it took me 30 seconds to copy that line lol) Dr. Eran Raveh and his earth-scientist partner Dr. Arie Nadler spent seven years perfecting the hammer-shaped sensor that gauges moisture levels in plants and trees and sends real-time alerts to mobile phones or computers when water levels are low.

"The idea behind creating the sensor was to cut irrigation costs by up to 50 percent," Raveh told Fox News.

If water consumption could be cut down in high farming areas like Israel, there could be a huge change in people's lifestyle's throughtout the world.
