Preparation for placing flowerpots indoor and outdoor
If you have appreciated the benefits of flower pots with an automatic watering system, now you need to decide where you will grow your plants. There are certain points for using these types of pots. The requirements for growing plants indoors and outdoors are slightly different. This applies not only to pots in the garden but also to self-watering window boxes that are placed outside the house.
Advantages of using self-watering pots:
- You don’t have to ask your friends or neighbors to water your plants while you’re away.
- You don’t have to worry that you poured too much water and the roots might rot.
- You don’t have to worry about going away for the weekend and forgetting to water your plants. They won’t dry out without you.
- You can grow plants in the office and not worry that they are left without watering during the holiday.
Remember to follow simple rules for growing plants indoors and outdoors. Your plants will be healthy and beautiful to delight you with their flowering and appearance.
Growing plants indoors
You want to make your home cozier and warmer, but you don’t have enough time to
care for every plant. A unique solution is flower pots with an automatic watering system,
which allows you to maintain the required level of moisture in the soil with roots. It’s
convenient and simple, add liquid to the tank and don’t worry that the plant may dry out
or its roots may rot. But it is important to remember a certain point – there is a screw
inside the pot that needs to be kept closed.
Growing plants outdoors
If you place such pots outdoors, the rules do not change. Keep the screw closed if the
plant will be standing under a canopy, that is, on a closed veranda or terrace. Open the
screw only if rain may get into the pot. The screw will not allow excess moisture to
remain inside the pot because this can lead to rotting of the root system. In home
cultivation, the plant receives enough liquid from the reservoir when needed. Rain will
become an additional source of moisture which can harm the root system. Unscrew the
small screw at the planter’s bottom and excess liquid will not stagnate in the soil of the
plant.
Growing plants in pots with automatic watering is very convenient because it does not
require your effort. You don't need to water the plant every day and worry that you did it
wrong. Use these pots correctly and enjoy the beauty of your plants.
