[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP back. Learning so much from this thread! Does installing self watering in a large planter help the plants in a unique way or just save you time watering? I have a small backyard so watering isn’t a burden [/quote] 8:28 here. A self-watering pot is NOT inherently better than planting something in the ground. It's not better, it's not worse. It is simply an option. Sometimes you have a great spot for a plant but the ground isn't ideal (like, if there's concrete instead of dirt). A pot is a great option. Or, in the case of tomatoes, I plant all mine in 5 gallon, self watering buckets because tomatoes like consistent watering from the bottom and I can use a long pvc pipe to refill the reservoir and a stake. It also keeps the rabbits from eating them and I do have a good, sunny spot for them. I also like the self watering pots for annuals because I don't have to pay as much attention to them.[/quote]
