From there, the soil (or perlite) that fills the perforated basket in the centre of the basin acts as a ‘wick’ which sucks the water back to the plants' roots through a capillary action, thus creating a self-watering system. A major benefit of the wicking system is it recycles the soil's nutrients. The water filtered down contains the nutrients from the soil, and that water is then sucked back up. This results in fewer replacements of the soil and better vegetable growth.   \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow Often Should I Water the Vegepod?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eWhen the Vegepod first arrives: mist-spray your seedlings for 5 minutes for 10 days. Less if you are planting during rainy months. This will start to soak the soil and fill the reservoir. When your plants are established: If it is cooler, your plants can go for months at a time without being watered (if rain is occasionally falling through oemeabel canopy) - a miracle we know. Otherwise, established plants can go weeks without watering. If it’s the height of summer, we’d say 2 - 3 weeks is the max you’d want to risk. That being said, we’ve seen Vegepods left for 6 weeks in the height of January heat that were still fine.

From there, the soil (or perlite) that fills the perforated basket in the centre of the basin acts as a ‘wick’ which sucks the water back to the plants' roots through a capillary action, thus creating a self-watering system. A major benefit of the wicking system is it recycles the soil's nutrients. The water filtered down contains the nutrients from the soil, and that water is then sucked back up. This results in fewer replacements of the soil and better vegetable growth.   \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow Often Should I Water the Vegepod?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eWhen the Vegepod first arrives: mist-spray your seedlings for 5 minutes for 10 days.

From there, the soil (or perlite) that fills the perforated basket in the centre of the basin acts as a ‘wick’ which sucks the water back to the plants' roots through a capillary action, thus creating a self-watering system. A major benefit of the wicking system is it recycles the soil's nutrients. The water filtered down contains the nutrients from the soil, and that water is then sucked back up. This results in fewer replacements of the soil and better vegetable growth.   \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow Often Should I Water the Vegepod?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eWhen the Vegepod first arrives: mist-spray your seedlings for 5 minutes for 10 days. Less if you are planting during rainy months. This will start to soak the soil and fill the reservoir. When your plants are established: If it is cooler, your plants can go for months at a time without being watered (if rain is occasionally falling through oemeabel canopy) - a miracle we know. Otherwise, established plants can go weeks without watering. If it’s the height of summer, we’d say 2 - 3 weeks is the max you’d want to risk. That being said, we’ve seen Vegepods left for 6 weeks in the height of January heat that were still fine.

Speaking of rain, if it’s raining, again, there’s no need to water as the cover will bring rain in. Alternatively, you can use the Vegepod misting tubes that run along the frame of the microclimate canopy. If you attach a hose to the tubes, a super fine mist spray will water the Vegepod, gently caressing the plants and especially, the growing seedlings.
