They will generally have a reservoir that you can access, sometimes a whole separate compartment. Other times just a little pour spot.

Thanks. I should have been clearer. How do I denote in Planta?

There isn’t really a way to note that yet in the app, but people have been requesting it. What I will usually do is just say the planter doesn’t have any holes. The automated schedule gets pretty close. If you’re a beta tester, you might use a moisture meter in combination with snoozing the watering or watering early to make sure you get the schedule dialed in with when you need to fill the reservoir.

Thanks so much!

I leave it as if it was a regular plastic pot with drainage holes, mostly because I’m still somewhat paranoid about self watering pots so I like the more frequent prompting to check on it 😅

I’ve been setting mine as plants growing in water. However, my two self-watering pots both have huge reservoirs that don’t need to be refilled too often, which is why the infrequent waterings work for me.

If your reservoirs are smaller, I would recommend setting as a plastic pot with no drainage and snooze the reminders until the reservoir needs to be refilled.
