  • I don’t understand the issues surrounding bottom watering pots with a wick.

    I have a number of succulents in them, and of course the usual unkillable Pothos. I partially/fully fill the bottom part (Depending on it’s carrying capacity) once every 2+ weeks and for the succulents they’re good to go. Saves me A LOT of effort doing the usual bottom watering process of putting the pots in a large container of water until the water saturates the soil.

    Can someone go into detail on the downsides of such pots?






  • If you’re looking for lights for succulents look into weed lights (AKA Cannabis grow lights). The LED fixtures throw A LOT of light and are generally cheaper than plant grow lights. Amazon has a number of them.

    Hell, depending on what you want to grow you could repurpose a cheap weed plant “greenhouse” which is a wire frame and some reflective material. Amazon has a number of those for your home.
