What are ollas, and how do they work?

Ollas are traditional terracotta watering jars designed to provide consistent moisture to plants. Simply bury the olla in the soil, fill it with water, and it will gradually seep into the soil, hydrating plant roots efficiently.

How often do I need to refill self-watering spikes?

Refill frequency depends on the plant’s water needs and the spike’s capacity. Check the reservoir every 3-7 days and refill as needed.

Can I use ollas for indoor plants?

Yes! Ollas are perfect for both indoor and outdoor plants. They reduce the risk of overwatering and provide steady hydration for your plants.

What are self-watering spikes?

Self-watering spikes are plant care tools designed to provide a steady supply of water to plants over time. They consist of a spike that is inserted into the soil and a water reservoir (like a bottle or globe) that slowly releases water as the soil dries out.

1:Fill a bottle with water. 2: Insert the spike into the soil near the plant’s roots. 3: Attach the water bottle to the spike. 9: Ensure the spike is securely placed to avoid leaks.

How long does a self-watering system last?

Our terracotta watering globes provide hydration for 2-4 weeks, depending on plant size and climate.

What is the difference between glass and terracotta watering spikes?

. Glass spikes: More decorative and transparent, allowing you to see the water level. . Terracotta spikes: Porous and provide a more natural, slow-release watering process.

Just as I expected. The addition of the cork stoppers helps keep out mosquitoes and bugs while reducing evaporation too. Nice touch.
