While your fountain is
on, the water level ris-
es, watering your plant
from bottom to top.
When your fountain is
off, the water level low-
ers, creating an air gap
that allows air to aerate
your plant’s roots.
STOP!
At this point, your fountain should look like
the image on the left. Turn on your fountain
and enjoy!
How the Self-Watering System Works
Your self-watering garden fountain waters from the bottom up. Do not worry if you do
not see the top soil becoming wet after the rst day or two of use. The bottom layer of
the soil will be watered every time you run the fountain. After approximately 3 days, the
soil will reach its maximum water level. The water will steadily climb to just below the
surface of the soil, depending on if you chose to use the rubber spacer or not.
When your fountain is o, the roots of your plant will be aerated to produce strong
healthy roots. When the fountain is on, the water level will rise above the surface of the
top planter bowl, saturating the soil.
