Attractive, easy way to water your plants Oct 22, 2009 By Pam Thompson "Spammy"
I bought the mini aqua globes on a whim. I was pleasantly surprised with them. Water is dispensed slowly into the soil guaranteeing that the roots will get water and it all won't run out of the bottom. I found that if you just stick the globe in the soil, water seeps in slowly. If you put a hole in the soil first and then stick the globe in the hole, water seems to go out of the globe quicker. This isn't good if you're going on vacation and want your plants watered slowly. So just stick it in the soil without making a hole. The mini globes are a good size for houseplants that are in pots with a diameter of 6 inches or more. The only drawback is the globes are made of glass and can break, so be careful when handling them.Aqua Globes Mini- Set of 3

Using these while on vacation Dec 22, 2009 By Kahanalei
As a previous reviewer had pointed out, it is important that you do not try to make a hole in the soil before you put these in (even though on the actual product instructions, it tells you to do so), the reason is because the water will come out much more quickly this way, as I found out. Just directly insert these in the soil, granted you will need to use some care as these are made out of glass. And also as some have brought up, these will be a bit too big for anything that's less than 6in diameter - it might tip over and break, unless the planter is made out of ceramic and can support the weight of the globe w/water inside. They are very pretty and just the right size if you have some small house plants - I'm currently using these while on vacation since I didn't want to bother people to come over just to water my few plants!

Bigger than you would think Oct 23, 2009 By E. Miller
I have the Plant Nanny which I like better than the Aqua Globes, but I got these because they said they were "mini" and reviews said they were good for small plants. These are NOT good for what I consider "small" pots -- 6" or smaller. They are pretty much the same size as the Plant Nanny and the Plant Nanny is much easier to deal with and work much better. However, these are much prettier.

Perfect size makes care a no brainer Nov 24, 2009 By L. Pilling "keeper of odd knowledge"
I tried the large ones when they first came out and was VERY pleased at how well my plants looked. I was finally done killing them off from laziness! Problem was that the big ones would tip over my smaller pots, didn't want to stay in the dirt of small pots. These are the perfect size for violets or azaleas. Depending on the size of plant they are easy to 'hide' in back under foliage.

The hole can get a little clogged w/ dirt, but it is no big deal to wash out. It is kind of a trick to refill them, but patience and a small stream of water help

They can take being dropped 1-2 times (I have a toddler and they are pretty)
They do not make good drumsticks.

My mom loves these Jan 21, 2011 By Just a Mom
She already had two aqua globes, and requested more for Christmas. She thinks they're wonderful. One thing she does is insert a plastic tube just larger than the end of the stem down into the potting soil. Then she just removes and returns the globe to the plastic tube. That keeps the tip of the stem from getting clogged with dirt and makes sure the water gets down to the bottom of the pot. If you're having trouble with them, give her technique a try.
