Olla zelfwatergevende pot - onbewerkt

I love that the unglazed clay lets water slowly seep exactly where my plant needs it—no more guessing when to water. My peace lily has perked up noticeably and I only refill the pot every five days.

My herbs stopped wilting the day I buried this olla in the pot. The clay seeps water straight to the roots, so I just refill it every week or so and forget about it. Genuinely the laziest way to keep plants alive.

I was skeptical about the whole ancient irrigation thing, but my basil has never looked better. The clay seeps water so slowly the soil stays evenly damp instead of soaking and drying out. Filling it once a week is all it takes.
