I came across this while poking around in Pinterest this evening. The made a sub-irrigating planter out of a 2-liter bottle. I'll be doing this with my kids once their seeds sprout and get stronger. 2-liter SIP

Looks cute. I have done something similar. I wish I could enlarge the instruction pictures to read them.

Thank you, Carol. It worked this morning but would not last night. My old computer must have been too tired to jump through the proper hoops for me.

I've used string to wick water from one container to a plant...the kids thought that was interesting, but this is more practical.
