Passos generals d'instal·lació:

  1. Add Potting Mix: Fill the window box with your preferred potting mix. The internal design includes water troughs that allow the potting mix to draw moisture from the reservoir.
  2. Plant Flowers/Foliage: Arrange and plant your desired flowers, herbs, or other foliage.
  3. Water Thoroughly: Water your newly planted window box thoroughly. The water will fill the reservoir at the bottom.

3. Instruccions de funcionament

3.1 Watering with the Built-in Reservoir

The integrated water reservoir provides a consistent source of moisture to your plants, reducing the need for daily watering. Water is absorbed by the potting mix through capillary action from the reservoir below.

  • Initial Watering: After planting, water until the reservoir is full and excess water begins to drain from the overflow holes.
  • Ompliment: Monitor the moisture level of your plants. When watering is needed, simply add water to the soil until the reservoir is replenished. The overflow drainage prevents overwatering and root rot.
