Currently I have tried the herb pot with basil and chives. It simply makes it the Herb Pot Emsa in the "planter" and puts a small plastic rod which is surrounded by a band, then from bottom of the pot. The band begins to spread out the water from the bottom and from there into the ground. I tend anyway, especially in dropsical plants like basil, to every few days new pour the water from above. So just keeps basil particularly long.
The chives plant has unfortunately not survived on my last test. I'll stay there but on the ball and will test it further.
Conclusion:
A cheap and good way to keep the little pots of herbs and fresh longer alive. From me, there are therefore 4 out of 5 stars.
