    Is it possible to push the T connection right into the pot as far as possible so that the tubing is running/touching along tje surface of the garden instead of being so high? Just from an aesthetic point of view

    This is fabulous. I’m thinking I can use rain barrels for a long row of pots in my garden. We’re in zone 9b and get weeks of 117-120 degrees. I’ve been trying to figure out what to do. I’m going to try this.

    If you were to use sealed connections to the pots you could leave the tap on all the time, this would require you to prefill the pots with water first though. As the water seeps through the pot it would suck the water from the reservoir to continuously refill.

    What is the circumference of the spil that each olla will help keep hydrated? Like i need one every 2 ft or 4 ft?

    Well, Darn it! I bought pots yesterday and already put them together to install today...then you say don’t get the ones from Italy. Well guess what, yes they were made in Italy. I found them at Walmart to. Pennington brand. And I thought ...oooh, wow ..Italian made...they gotta be really good ones. Can you please say where we can look for the ones NOT made in Italy? You’d think Walmart but nooooo, they have the stinkin’ “made in Italy” oh hail!

    Sorry, I realize your video was made three years ago and it was a very scary time for everyone with the pandemic, but you are outside and masks weren't needed in uncrowded spaces such as the garden. The problem I have is that you can barely be heard unless the person filming is close to you. Thanks for attempting to demonstrate for us though we do appreciate your attempt. May God always Bless you with good health and prosperity. I gave you a thumbs-up so that you can get paid, but I will not be subscribing.
