ORIMERC 30 feet 4mm Diameter Self Watering Wick Cord Vacation Plant Sitter DIY Hydroponic Wicking Self-Watering Planter Pot Automatic Water System Device Potted Violet Auto Seedling Waterer Rope

I was skeptical at first but this really is a game changer. It works! I used this to water my house plants for two weeks when on holiday including chillies and it kept them alive. I strongly suggest you trial it for a week or so if you intend to use it whilst away on holiday to get the rate of water transfer right.

Worked perfectly. Set up pre a 2 week holiday with a collection of plastic water bottles, not exactly confident, expecting to find a lot of dying withered plants. Instead I came back to a jungle! All survived and grown and enormous amount in the time we'd been away.

Bought these self-watering wick cords to put into our pots, whilst we were away on holiday for a week. Weather was very warm, but a good water before we went and the addition of the wick cords; which you can cut to any length needed; to our pots/troughs from a trug, placed above the pots/plants level and secured with a stone/small piece of garden wire (used as a bracket in the pots) was all that was required. Worked a treat and would recommend it to anyone that has a lot of pots and wants inexpensive self watering device for the odd occasion. EXCELLENT!!!!

This is the best rope/string there is for semi hydroponics I won’t use any other

It does what it says on the tin. But leave plenty of time to adjust your setup for speed, inclination, spills, and other details. It is very finicky, but the cord does what it says really well! It is incredibly hard to install and minor mistakes imply complete failure (water leaks, drowed plats, etc.) I give 3 stars because how hard it is to use, and how misleading is the information about installation.

The ORIMERC 120 feet 4mm Self Watering Capillary Wick has been a fantastic addition to my plant care routine. It waters my plants better than I ever could, keeping them healthy and happy. I no longer have to worry about overwatering or underwatering. I originally got it for vacations, but now I use it all the time because it works so well. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to keep their plants in great shape.

You can never have too much of this stuff for your self watering pots

Surprised but this does actually work. I ordered too late to leave the plants indoors for our 1st weekend away. You do need a few days to suss out how many lengths you need, and the wick takes a while to soak. My advice would be to fully submerge the lengths in water for a couple of days first. If I was to leave them for a full week they'd definitely need bigger buckets!
