To keep your plants from drying out, DIY blog Secret Tips of The Yumiverse suggests you make a small greenhouse out of a plastic bag.The premise here is that by enclosing the plant, it will work similar to a greenhouse and keep the moisture inside. You’ll need to make some poles first, they suggest using bamboo, to ensure the bag doesn’t touch the plant, then you’ll seal the whole thing together with a rubber band at the base.
