Aqua Globes are decorative, hand-blown glass watering devices that automatically water plants for up to two weeks by releasing water as the soil dries. They are easy to use: fill the globe with water, insert the glass spike into the soil, and the plant will draw water as needed. This method prevents overwatering, eliminates spills, and is ideal for indoor and outdoor potted plants.
How they work
Mechanism: As the soil in the pot dries, it releases oxygen into the globe through the spike.
Water release: The influx of oxygen causes the globe to release a small amount of water, which is exactly what the plant needs.
Benefit: This process keeps the soil consistently moist without drowning the plant.
Features
Hand-blown glass: Each globe is individually crafted, often available in various colors and decorative designs.
Automatic watering: They provide a steady, automatic supply of water, making them a convenient option for busy people or while on vacation.
No spills or overwatering: The system ensures no water is spilled and prevents the soil from becoming waterlogged.
Durability: The glass is often made thick and durable to withstand handling.
Usage
Fill a globe with water.
Insert the glass spike into the soil of your plant.
To prevent the spike from getting clogged, you can create a pilot hole in the soil first.
