    I've been trying to water my plant using a glass watering bulb like this one:

    But it doesn't dispense the water correctly. I would fill the bulb and insert it in the soil but by the next morning or so the bulb would be completely empty with water at the bottom of the water catcher dish of the pot. I then tried to pack the soil in around the spout of the bulb and placing it in various positions of the plant at different angles and depths but still the water would drain right through or the soil getting clogged in the spout. Anyone else have this problem or do these bulbs just not work? :confused:

    Yeah I always thought they looked cool. But now that I am aware of their rip off potential I am gonna go around teeing these off.

    I see also that potentially damaging the roots cause someone might keep poking it around to a better spot, Only severing roots..
    might look nice in some arrangement for display, center piece but dont think long term applications would be so good..

    Carry them around at festivals. And if someone tries pulling some dirty hippy shit smash it over their head.
