Watering Globes

These are wonderful. When I am forgetful about watering my plants, these fill the gaps. If I forget for a long time, I realize how important they are to keep full.

Smaller than expected but still do a great job. Colors are vibrant.

These are very pretty, and 4 of the 6 work really well - they fill easily from the tap and have helped my outdoor plants a lot. Two of them though (including the green one in the photo) are almost impossible to fill up, because the stem opening is much narrower than the other four (the blue one above fills up fast), and they get bubbles in the stem immediately (which means the water isn't going into the globe). I've even tried submerging them, using an eye dropper, but nothing works so I end up not using those. It looks like the green and yellow ones are not made exactly the same way - the stem is thicker or the opening isn't cut to the exact same angle. Otherwise the other 4 work great.

Cute and does the job

They work exactly the same as the TV version does, but they are 1/2 the size. That is the only drawback. If I didn't have to climb a big ladder to get them out of the planter and back down to fill the water globe up to climb back up the ladder to use it, the size wouldn't matter. But size does matter so double check the measurements before you are disappointed.

I've used glass globes for watering indoor plants for years. These have short spouts which feed shorter pots without tipping them over. That, I appreciate. I check them routinely on the same day each week and refill them only when empty. Now I need more as gifts for a couple of friends who think the watering method is perfect. However, some of the spouts have extra small filling openings and take patience and a very small stream of water to fill.

These watering bulbs look nice but they do not work!! The bulbs are not consistent and the necks on almost all of them are so thin, that it is extremely difficult to fill them and then they do not drip into the plant. I went to check on my plants after having the bulbs inserted after a couple of days and when I moved the plants the leaves started falling off. The bulbs were completely full, and no water went into the plant!! It was not clogged with soil or anything that would have prevented it from properly dripping into the soil. I took it out and shook it to see what would happen and it took a lot of shaking just to make a couple of drops come out. I posted a video so you can see. Don’t buy this if you want to find your plants alive when you get back from a trip!!

I was looking for water bulbs for my plants sometimes I travel and I hate to not water my plants. I was spectacle at first but when I got them I love the design the size perfect for what I was looking for very functional and enough thickness for great durability.
