Keeping your plants properly hydrated is a challenge even when you are at home, which is where watering spikes can literally be lifesavers. These stakes automatically deliver moisture to plants, both inside and outside, to keep them alive and healthy, even when you are away for a few days.

Editor's Notes

April 24, 2020:

Keeping your plants alive and well during your absence can be challenging, even if you are simply away at work for the day. Some people just do not have a green thumb, and they need all the help they can get, which is where watering stakes come in handy. It does not matter if your plants are in the ground, in pots, or in wooden planter boxes, having a way to automatically water them will only make your life easier.

When making your selection, consider the number of plants you have, how long you need automatic watering, and the size of your plants. Stakes often come with more than one to a package, so if you have a lot of plants, you need lots of stakes, like the Aezek Device or the GoodMind Creations, and you may even need a plant stand. Multiple stakes can also be used in one plant, too, if it is large.

If you need your plants watered consistently for an extended period of time, pay attention to how long potential options can provide water. The Alotm Plant Bulb waters for as long as 2 weeks, and the Julias 8-Piece Spike waters for up to 10 days. If you want an option that simply looks beautiful as it serves its purpose, consider the Wyndham System or the Sucole Mushroom.
