How do you water the plant?
1252869
I water like you would any other plant and once in a while put some plant food in the water. I also have it in a planter where you can put water in the bottom part and the plant will use it as needed but must say it drinks up a lot of water. The plant has grown to almost double the size in a couple months.

I just use an ordinary watering can with a fine spout. (Made for indoor plants, this sort of thing http://www.bing.com/shopping/dynamic-design-wc1018fe-watering-can-fern-dydwc1018fe/p/52A25876EC0588715012?q=watering+can+for+indoor+planrs&lpq=watering%20can%20for%20indoor%20planrs&FORM=HURE . How often depends on the time of year, I let the soil dry out a little on top between waterings so it's evenly moist but never soggy. I like to water it with a liquid fertilizer every other month or so and about once a year I will put the plant in the sink or shower pot and all and water it really good- let the fresh water flow through. This will leach out the salt buildup. Dont do this often though, just when you see salty deposits build up around the drain holes is how you know it's time. So , that's the deluxe treatment but spider plants are tough and really forgiving. My plant I bought is still thriving and gorgeous. It's huge and has needed repotted twice since I bought it. Hope this helps.

Paul, I bought this for my husband, so I asked him. This is what he said, "You can. But I just water mine enough to water the plants. I'm not trying to water it enough to get anything to run through and make fertilizer."Hope that helps. BTW...he loves his!

You place the tubing in a jug of water (such as an empty milk jug). The water level in the jug must be below the soil level of the plant.

Soon as you can,just run a little water on the plant till you can arrange the terrarium!

An easy and effective method to help with the watering is to place a "pad" of newspaper 8-10 sheets on the bottom of the tray. Form your blocks directly on this paper using damped starter soil mix (a bit damper than you would use for regular potting. Squeeze a fist full of dampened mix and it should hold its shape. It is OK if you can squeeze out a drop or two of water.). Plant your seeds. Gently water the paper next to the block, enough to saturate the paper and make it glisten. Check once or twice a day. I think this is a lot quicker and easier than misting.

Sorry to say I did not have much luck with them. I found that if I put the water on the ground next to the pot it would draw up the water. I resorted to the orange plastic tips that screw onto plastic bottle. You just poke them in the dirt next to the plant and the soil does the rest. They worked well for a 1 week vacation. Also found on Amazon on prime.

This product is intended to be sprayed directly on the leaves of the plant. The plant should be watered as needed.

You stick the spike side into the dirt (with the plant) and the other end goes into a big container of water

You measure out 1 OZ. and add that to 1 Gallon of water, and then water your plants normally. However... I use this concentration every other week rather than every week.

Just make sure you follow the recommended watering ..... Also for humidity put a shallow dish with rocks to keep planter out of the water and misting also .....

I ph my water and soak it in it till it fattens all the way up. Then i squeeze it gently and let it absorb it again. I do that a few times before u put the seedling in two seeds dept.

I insert mine - then remove it and clean it before inserting it into another plant. Works very well.

FOUR ways, use any of these or a combination: (1)pH adjust your water to 5.6-5.8 ---- (2)add 5ml/gal of 3% drugstore H2O2, not a drop more and start with half that just to be sure your plants are ok with it ---- (3) use distilled or RO water ---- (4) cover your reservoir so no light reaches the water

That's what I do. I only clean and change the water in the reservoir. I only check the water in the sensor when the plants don't seem to be getting enough water-the sensor has to be completely full for the plant sitter to work properly.

You want to fill the bucket with at least 4 gallons of RO water, a brand of bacteria designed to promote root growth and a nutrient package based on what your growing, making sure to balance your PH specific to that plants needs. It's also wise to add H2O2. The air stone will help circulate the water, allowing the root system to be oxygenated. Oxygenated water is critical in pushing nutrients through the root system and into the plant. Down side to DWC is that you will need to change out your water every one to two weeks. During that time monitor your PH and water level and adding H2O2 every 3 to 4 days. Hope this helps and isn't to detailed. :)

You don't mix it with water. Just dip the cut end of the plant into the powder and then put the plant put it in the soil.

Make a tea with it just like you would with worm castings and water your plants with it, works great!
