    From one Kansas gal to another...thank you Annette! Although I'm in the desert, I am going to try this on a few outdoor container plants and I'll let you know how it goes...

    Thanks for the demonstration. I'm going on vacation and had a water
    wicking idea in mind for my plants as well but wasn't sure what kind of string I was going to
    use. The water container definitely has to be completely above the plant to have
    all the H2o siphon off. Otherwise I think the twine will just dry out.

    Thank you Annette for sharing. Please ignore the ones who suffer a mental disorder. Like the plants: some are good plants and others are just weeds that unfortunately grows. Do not get discouraged or stop sharing your experiences

    What a clever idea. I've never seen anything like this before and I think this is such a good idea. I've subscribed to your channel and I look forward to following you on TH-cam. Thanks for sharing.

  • @parisasabokrooh8483
    @parisasabokrooh8483 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thank you. great tip! I just have one question: is the twine reaching the roots or you just leave it on the surface of the soil?

    • @FerdiTayfurSolak
      @FerdiTayfurSolak 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I would sort of push it down the roots much as you can

    • @FerdiTayfurSolak
      @FerdiTayfurSolak 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      try not to hurt the plants though

    • @annettelawless
      @annettelawless  8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I push things down far, so the roots can get a good drink.

  • @Saintly2
    @Saintly2 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Does this work outside? I'm thinking the sun would dry the twine before the water could get to the plants.

    • @annettelawless
      @annettelawless  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I would imagine it would struggle outside due to the heat. It could be worth trying, but I would definitely make sure that the hole in the top of your lid is tight, so things don't evaporate.

    hell like the video im first time indoor garden trying it out thanks alot.

  • @OhPusit
    @OhPusit 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hello, I just wanted to ask what kind of twine did you use and if cotton rope also works as well, if not what other types will work?
    Craft stores are a rarity in my city (not a lot of DIY or other handy crafts are still practiced here), so my only source for my indoor gardening needs is a hardware store that only has a single aisle for all their gardening products.

    • @haudrey2936
      @haudrey2936 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      You could just use any string/rope that has a really good absorbency.

      You're right. It's not immediate. I'm a fan of an introduction.

    could you use one bottle for many plants? please respond i need to do something like this for a project. Thanks!

    • @annettelawless
      @annettelawless  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I don't see why not. As long as you have enough water for all the plants. I personally would try making separate holes for each piece of twine.

  • @TheOneanjel
    @TheOneanjel 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    cool idea... has anyone used this on regular/larger sized houseplants?

  • @marcschoenphd5994

  • @sanz8028
    @sanz8028 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I've tried once but it only works for a few days, does it depend on the rope type?

    • @annettelawless
      @annettelawless  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I've had it for several. I used larger containers for the longer length in time.
      I used twine in the craft section of the store.

    Would this work for cannabis?

    • @annettelawless

      Why don't you ask the police.

    • @TexasBoys

      i live in colorado u fuck tard

    • @annettelawless
      @annettelawless  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      OK...
      1) "Fuck tard" isn't a word. Plus, you may want to learn how to punctuate a bit better if you're going to come onto my channel to harass me.
      2) Living in Colorado, there are restrictions to how much marijuana you can grow. I'm from Kansas, so I'm not a true expert on the topic, but as a journalist, I've gathered you a little info.
      www.colorado.gov/pacific/marijuanainfodenver/marijuana-retailers-home-growers
      This may help guide you a bit on your growing needs. It's also important to note that you cannot sell or transport things unless you have proper licensing. (All of that is noted in the link I've attached.)
      3) You can still ask the police for advice.

    • @annettelawless
      @annettelawless  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Oh no! I've had luck with it, but maybe it's a matter of how the water is stored, humidity in your home, etc.

    I read that shoelaces work best for wicking. This looks like jute twine. Can't see how this dry material could absorb enough water. Just sayin.

    • @annettelawless
      @annettelawless  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Sharon Holmes that’s a great idea too.
      But the twine works just fine. Just sayin.
