Six years ago I shared a video showing how to transform an ordinary terracotta pot into a self-watering pot for the garden. I've been using my DIY ollas in the greenhouse since then and this video is a follow-up on how they work and to answer some frequently answered questions. I also share alternative ways to adapt them including using the mouldable glue from Sugru. Other questions answered include if you can put fertilizer in the self-watering pots, spacing, how often you should fill the pots with water, and how many plants can one DIY olla service. I also show how quickly water can seep through the terracotta and get to where plant roots are eagerly waiting for it. 🌿 Recommended videos 🌻 Original DIY olla video: https://youtu.be/GRiLhrY2CMc 🥕 DIY Pallet Planter: https://youtu.be/ouVUte5DS-s 🌼 About A Woman's Garden Book: https://youtu.be/NvV7XrQo5tw 🌿📕 Order my new book USA: https://amzn.to/3fKMij1 UK: https://amzn.to/3wkkW9g Canada: https://amzn.to/3wkkW9g More places: https://lovelygreens.com/a-womans-garden-grow-beautiful-plants-and-make-useful-things/ ➤ If you enjoy this video please give it a thumbs up and subscribe (thank you!) ➤Remember to TURN ON notifications to know when new videos are out.
