I like to use these to encourage deep root growth for my plants. I usually put them all the way to the bulb and water the plant till the soil is saturated and that usually gets the roots growing after planting, then as the soil dries out the roots chase the moisture deeper to the depth where i put the bulb, and thus far, my potted plants love it

Thank you for this video. I was not at all sure how to use these bulbs that I just ordered. I think I have been vacillating between over and under watering.

Great job. I'm going to use these for my mothers plants that I'm taking to the cemetery this weekend. Fingers crossed.

Finally my watering globes don't clog anymore, thank you!

Thank you for this just got some cheap plastic ones could not get water in till saw your video hope faucet water doesn't kill my plants hard water here in Texas

Can also fill them by submerging them in water. Probably less tedious than using the faucet.

It works great with potted citrus trees that like damp but not soggy soil. I need three for the size of my tree until I can get it established.

Very informative, thanks for making this vid. I am learning something new

Could you make a video on common houseplants that like to stay consistently moist or houseplants that like the flood and dry method.

Thanks. Just started using them on my herbs.

Thanks, I have a potted plant that is not near a water source to integrate into a drip system. The globe should work fine

Is there a list somewhere that has all the plants these are good for? I've been looking but I can't find any. I have several different plants that all require different frequencies of being watered and I don't know which ones these would be useful for.

HAHAH at the word MOIST! Never thought about it getting clogged and using a pencil to keep that from happening! Thanks!

Are they any good with starting seeds? I'm looking to plant Pomegranate seeds.

HOW do you fill these things, directly under the tap aint working for my new set. this is craziness bought a funnel hopefully that works. I dont have time to set at sink 5 min at a time.

Thank you

Nuthin wrong with the word moist! Can describe a few things that come to mind. Thanks for this video on globes/orbs! I picked some up at Dollar General to give a try. Cheerz!

Do you suggest globing Monsteras?

Can this be useful for carnivorous sundews?

Als de bol na 1 dag leeg is dan gelijk weer vullen met water??

First time using a water globe, I placed one in a plant with the soil feeling moist and the globe emptied out within an hour…What am I doing wrong?

How do you slow the drip?? I’ve attempted plugging it and still empties, floods my plants within the hour of planting

Why have you put one of these in your lavender’s pot? Do they not prefer dry? I’m asking because I’ve just gotten my first.

Sound ideal for ferns

Depends on the size of the tomato plant, but probably.

For longer water endurance in a pot, multiple globes can be used.

Do you think this would be beneficial for orchids? Thanks in advance

I'd say it might nor be the best as most succulents prefer to be submerged in water rather then have damp soil, sand ect

I saw reviews online of some people saying it would immediately drain the whole thing when they put it in and others said that would happen unless they put it in correctly… what’s correctly? I’m going on a 2 week trip and buying them as backup for the pet sitter who will also be caring for them intermittently

If the soil is too loosely packed it may drain too quickly. If the orb is firmly seated in the soil it should not drain immediately. It took a bit of practice for me to find the right balance.

Would you recommend this for succulents?

@lasantajones9703

Same question. I’m thinking my succulents may prefer top watering & being flooded. They don’t seem to care too much for bottom watering. I read/hear they like for their soil to drain water so idk about the stake

Do i still need to water my plant if the globe is still filled with water?

Ok but how the hell do you fill 30 at a time without it being a painstaking process involving a trickle from the sink or a syringe. I wanted to fill mine with miracle grow fertilizer mixture. I used a galles jug and sheer will- and it took a full 30 mins to fill them. I had to pour it over a bug bowl and siphon the water back into the hub several times. Help.

A week is a long Vacation.

When you've got a lot of plants it's even more unfeasible.

I wish you’d tell us which plants need this type watering. And, do you have you sell for Amazon? They practically own the whole world, it seems. 😬Let’s patronize other businesses-maybe some that pay their fair share of taxes and have great ethics.
