very effective and come with several benefits compared to regular pots:
✔Consistent hydration: They provide a steady supply of water from the
built-in reservoir, ensuring plants don’t dry out too quickly.
✔Prevents overwatering: By allowing plants to absorb only what they
need, self-watering pots reduce the risk of soggy soil and root rot.
✔Healthier growth: With balanced moisture, plants stay healthier,
stronger, and require less day-to-day watering attention.

Self-Watering Plastic Pot Care Guide
Keep your plants thriving effortlessly with our self-watering plastic pot, designed to provide the perfect balance of hydration and airflow. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced plant lover, this system makes plant care simple, efficient, and worry-free.
How the Self-Watering System Works
Each pot features a two-part design:
- Inner Pot: Holds the soil and plant roots, allowing air to circulate and preventing root rot.
- Outer Reservoir: Stores water, which is gradually absorbed by the soil through capillary action or a built-in wick system.
Watering Instructions
- Initial Setup:
- When first planting, water from the top until the soil is evenly moist.
- This helps the plant’s roots establish and reach the self-watering zone.
2. Refilling the Reservoir:
- Add water through the inlet or side opening until it reaches the MAX
line (if indicated). - Avoid overfilling; excess water can reduce oxygen at the roots.
3. Monitoring Water Levels:
- Most plants will need refilling every 1–2 weeks, depending on temperature, humidity, and plant size.
- For pots with a water-level indicator, refill when it shows MIN.
4. Top Watering (Optional):
- Occasionally water from the top to flush out any accumulated salts or fertilizer residue.
Light & Placement - Place in bright, indirect light, suitable for most indoor plants.
- Avoid exposing the pot to intense, direct sunlight for long periods — it can cause algae growth in the water reservoir and may fade the plastic.
- Keep in a well-ventilated area to maintain healthy root airflow.
Maintenance & Cleaning
- Every 4–6 weeks: Empty and rinse the reservoir with mild soap and water to prevent algae or mineral buildup.
- Check the wick: Ensure it’s clean and properly positioned for optimal water flow.
- Winter months: Reduce watering frequency, as most plants need less moisture during dormant periods.
- Fertilizer use: Apply diluted liquid fertilizer directly into the topsoil, not
into the reservoir, to avoid clogging or uneven nutrient distribution.
