Round Planter Well Reservoir

When plants fail to thrive in an indoor or outdoor environment, a lack of proper watering is often to blame. If you have a difficult time providing the regular water that your living plants need to look their best, the Round Planter Well Reservoir is the ideal solution. Measuring from 7-28 inches in diameter, the reservoir allows for effective self-watering in planters that measure about and additonal  8-10" in diameter of the reservoir or less, reducing the need to water by as much as 50 percent. 

Reservoirs are easy to install... simply place the reservoir at the bottom of the planter, with a thin layer of gravel for drainage when it rains or the planter gets over-watered. The water in the reservoir will travel roughly 9-12" in all directions, so be sure and put the reservoir roughly 2-10 inches from the plants roots. Insert fill tube. Some people put PVC adhesive on the tube to ensure it stays in place. Cover directly with good fiberous soil. Add your plants and add water to the reservoir. Top water throroughly to get the reservoir and plants started. Top water a few more times until roots become established and the roots begin to wick the water up naturally.  Once established, fill reservoir as needed depending on weather. You will want reservoirs everywhere when you see the excellent results of watering plants at the right time in the right amount!
