Watering pot for planters

The idea is ancient. Dig a pot of low-fired and therefore permeable clay into the soil and fill it to the brim with water, and the pot walls will steadily absorb moisture, store it, and release it evenly back into their environment as dryness increases. It is the simplest way to keep a reservoir of water, and it even works in planters.

Think about your vegetable plants, which are in large tubs on the balcony or on the wall of the house. On sunny and warm summer days zucchini, cucumber, tomato & Co. are particularly thirsty and need to be watered more often. With the help of our watering pot for planters, you can save a few trips with the watering can: the clay pot with lid is inserted into the planter at the beginning of the season and filled with water. Check regularly every two or three days to see if it should be refilled to ensure a continuous supply to your plants - done! Your tomato plants in the tub benefit doubly from this economical watering method, because since the soil remains permanently dry on the surface, also reduces the risk of Braunrot infestation.
