How Does Self-Watering Plant System Work?
The Self-Watering Plant System is a gravity-fed water supply device. Simply connecting the folding bucket to the Fabric Pot Base, water will flow into the base by gravity. The cotton ropes attached to the Fabric Pot Base will then absorb the water and deliver it to the plants in the growing bag. By combining a list of components - a large-capacity Folding Bucket, Self-Watering Fabric Pot Base, Grow Bags, Silicone Tube, Adjustable Cotton Rope, and Shut-Off Valve Box, the Self-Watering System can effectively manage water resources, achieve automated watering, gather excess runoff, and utilize adjustable wicking cords to redirect water to the plant's roots.
Here are the key components of the Self-Watering Plant System:
Folding Bucket: The folding bucket is designed to work without electricity. When you fill it with water, the bucket utilizes gravity to move water through silicone tubes into the self-watering fabric pot base.
Self-Watering Fabric Pot Base: The fabric material allows for excellent aeration and drainage and consistent moisture. This will help to maintain consistent moisture levels, promote healthy root development, protect from the accumulation of pests, mold, and mildew, and prevent overwatering. Also, its design includes a reservoir plate, which can elevate the fabric pot above any standing water. This can prevent stagnation and reduce the risk of algae growth, to offer a healthier root environment.
Grow Bags: Made from durable, breathable fabric, grow bags can accommodate various plant sizes, supporting up to 5 gallons of soil.
Water-Absorbing Cotton Ropes: The system utilizes several adjustable-length water-absorbing cotton ropes to direct water up to the plant’s roots, ensuring efficient moisture delivery.

How to Use Spider Farmer Self-Watering System?
To maximize its benefits and ensure optimal performance, please read the User Manual carefully. Besides, there are several key factors to consider. Here’s a comprehensive guide on what to pay attention to when using the Spider Farmer Self-Watering System:
- Remove Protective Cotton Card: Before using the Self-Watering System, remove the protective cotton card from the shut-off valve; otherwise, the valve will not function properly.
- Place in the Same Level: The shut-off valve box must be kept on the same level as the plate to ensure the system operates correctly.
