The clay spike draws water from the bottle and releases moisture into the soil at a steady rate, reducing overwatering and cutting the number of times you need to hand-water. The brown translucent bottles hold roughly 26 ounces each and pair with 7 x 1.9 inch spikes sized for most medium pots and planters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do these spikes deliver water slowly to my plants?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe terracotta (laterite clay) spike uses capillary action to let water seep from the bottle into surrounding soil. Insert the spike into a pre-dug hole at potting level, attach the bottle upside-down, and the porous clay regulates flow based on soil moisture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePorous laterite clay provides controlled permeation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBottle inverted onto the spike creates a sealed reservoir.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlow slows when soil is moist and increases when soil dries.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIdeal for consistent, gradual hydration over several days.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich plants and pot sizes work best with this 6-pack?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese spikes suit a wide range of plants—potted indoor foliage, patio plants, hanging baskets, herbs, and small shrubs.
