Today I'm showing you how I like to install a wick in my hydro pots to give them access to a larger reservoir of nutrient water. If you have any nursery pots that don't fully reach the bottom of their cachepots, then this is the perfect idea for you!

I use wicks every chance I get because they allow me to go even longer without adding more water to my plant. It's a great way to increase capacity without the chance of overwatering.

Let me know what you think!
