I tested 5 different DIY watering devices for my house plants, and this is how the indoor plants looked after being alone for 3 weeks! Plus tips on how to water your plants if you are going on vacation, and the best DIY self watering system for your plants! Some automatic watering set ups are more reliable than others, and I figured out which is the best method to water your houseplants while you're away. I give you my biggest learnings and takeaways based on the results of my self watering experiments so you don't make the same mistakes with your plants and propagations as I did.
Watch part 1 and how I set up these DIY self watering systems for my plants here:

These are cheap and easy ways to automatically water your houseplants. I used items I already had at home, such as string, bottles, and plastic bags. All of the DIY self watering methods definitely have their pros and cons, but find out which system you should use to keep your indoor plants and container garden alive and watered while you're gone. I show you the outcome of different auto watering systems including the string water wicking drip system, plastic bag greenhouse, water saucer bath, and upside down plastic bottle method.
