Yimomoyi self-watering plant saucers, 30 cm

For a fabric pot in a grow tent, greenhouse or garden, these saucers are designed to hold water below the planter and feed it back through cotton cords. The set includes four transparent bases, each with a 30 cm diameter, plus four cords. It’s a passive approach rather than a timed watering system: useful if you want to reduce routine hand-watering, but it still calls for occasional checks of the water level and the plants themselves.

Technical details

• Set: Four self-watering saucers and four cotton cords
• Saucer capacity: 4 L each
• Diameter: 30 cm
• Cord length: 1 m each
• Materials: Reinforced PP plastic and non-woven fabric

The clear sides let you see the remaining water without taking the base apart. A raised, perforated platform lifts the fabric pot above the reservoir, while grooves direct excess runoff towards the base. That layout is intended to keep the pot from sitting directly in collected water, it doesn’t establish how quickly moisture will reach the soil, since that depends on the setup and growing conditions.

Compatibility

These bases are described for fabric pots and use in indoor grow tents, greenhouses and gardens. The 30 cm diameter gives you a useful starting point for checking fit, but the product details don’t specify a supported pot size range. Measure the footprint of your pot before choosing them, especially if its base is broad or the growing area is tight. Te encaja si you already use fabric pots and want a reservoir-and-wick arrangement beneath them. No te encajará si you need a system with programmable watering or a stated flow rate, neither is listed here.

Usage tips

Place the base on a level surface, set the fabric pot on the raised grid and arrange the cotton cord so it connects the reservoir with the soil, following the product’s intended wicking method. Keep the transparent sides visible where practical, so checking the water level is straightforward. For example, in a grow tent, a quick look at the reservoir during a routine plant check can show whether it needs a refill without lifting the pot.

The elevated platform and runoff channels make this different from a simple flat drip tray, which mainly catches water rather than returning moisture through a cord. Still, the listing gives no watering schedule or measured rate of water uptake. Treat the reservoir as support for your routine, not a reason to stop monitoring plants, different conditions can change how quickly water is used.

Three specific questions

Can you see when the reservoir needs topping up? Yes. The saucers are transparent, so the remaining water is visible without disassembly.

Does the set include the wicks? Yes. Four cotton cords, each 1 m long, are included with the four bases.

Is the raised platform part of the design? Yes. It has holes and grooves to lift the pot and channel runoff towards the reservoir.

Before you buy

The main decision is whether this passive format suits your growing routine. The four-piece set and visible reservoirs may be handy when several fabric pots need a shared style of watering support, while a basic tray is simpler if you only need to catch drips. The trade-off is that these bases rely on the cord-and-water arrangement, with no stated control over delivery or pot-size range. Choose them if that setup fits your pots and you’re happy to keep an eye on moisture, look elsewhere if you need precise, scheduled irrigation or a confirmed fit for a particular pot.
