What is Bottom watering ? ππΌ
Bottom watering is sometimes called reverse watering. This is when you place a plant in a bowl of water, allowing the soil and roots to soak water from the bottom up. (Your plant does need to be in a pot with drainage though)
Some benefits include :
- preventing fungus gnats
-easier for roots to access
- encourages root development
- can be done regularly
But if you forget about your plants you let bottom water and they just soak for a prolonged amount of time... they will get ruined and become root rot π
I do this method when I have free time and can enjoy my plants π
The only thing I donβt love is that it is time consuming and each plant I like to let soak for 20-30 mins at MOST an hour.
