Does anyone know how to denote a self-watering pot?

    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.

    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.
