Plant drinkers are made of clay. It's a bit fragile due to its nature. Watering your nails with clay will automatically release moisture. The thinner the spikes, the faster the drainage. Easy to use with long neck wine bottles or plastic bottles. First, dig a hole in the soil. Next, gently insert the watering stake into the soil. Fill a bottle or wine bottle with water, connect the bottle with a stake and turn it upside down. Insert 7/8 stake into the soil to ensure better release. The more piles in the soil, the more moisture the soil can absorb. NOTE: For heavier bottles, you will need to insert almost the entire stake into the soil to prevent the stake from breaking. When you place the bottle full of water on the stake, it takes a little time for the water to soak through the porous clay. If the soil around the stake is dry, water will automatically wick from the clay into the soil, and water will continue to wick into the soil until the soil is saturated with water, or until the bottle is empty There is no standard release time for peaks. Usually 1 liter of water can automatically water about 7-10 days. The release rate of plant watering depends on the size of the pot, soil composition, plant requirements and climate. The purpose is to prevent the pot owner from overwatering while on vacation and to ensure the water needs of the plants. Note: Test the release rate of your plant waterer before going out to avoid damage to your plants. The nail is 6.58 inches long and weighs 3.52 ounces. Not only does it allow water to reach more roots, it also supports heavy bottles without damaging them. Be moderately gentle when placing the bottle on the stake. If you slam the bottle hard or push it in, you can damage the watering pile. Simply place the bottle lightly on the stake. Especially with heavy bottles, almost the entire stake must be inserted into the soil to prevent the stake from falling off.
