Back then we had just bought several sizes and tried, which Bördy for which plant is best. Ideally a Bördy can save 2-4 days of water and we had it Bördy which fits out after a short time to which plant. Each potted plant on the window sill (almost all orchids) now has a Bördy in S, our window boxes each have 2 Bördys in size M and our large potted plants (Strelitzia) each have a Bördy in XL.
On average, most of our plants about 5-7 days to come out with the water from a Bördy. Even now, in midsummer, when it's very hot, keep the Bördys with us still at least 2-3 days. When I see my mom on the other hand, the round then goes daily and has its watering flowers, then the Bördys are really much more convenient. My mom has therefore now risen or Froggys also Bördys because the Frogs course was better than Frog Fan :-) water dispenser FROGGY 15CM 52884 but in winter all the plants need less water and then holding a Bördy also much longer. My strelitzias come in cooler seasons with their XL Bördy from even 2-3 weeks.
And another great thing is: The water spills is finally passé. Especially in pots where much soil is there (or in pots with drainage), the water is running (together with Earth) happy times out of the pot and ripples on the window sill, or, worse, on the floor. Especially when the water-earth mud is then run on our balcony or on the terrace on the good wooden floor, I found that not great. With the Bördys this mess does not happen again. Water and earth remain in the pot.
If we go by 2 weeks on vacation, then we use the Bördys incidentally quite as "holiday replacement". We then put just a precaution a few more Bördys in a plant, or there is also the small plants a large bird ;-) If the plants are then "encircled" by 3 or 4 Bördys, or a fat bird in small pot sitting, it looks a little weird, but it looks anyway no. The main thing is, the plants do not die of thirst while on vacation. So far we have supplied so easily get over the holiday all our plants.
Mini Small drawback is possibly the price. While I find that the Bördys every penny worth, but if you need more Bördys that devours even a small sum. A somewhat more favorable 2, 5 or even 10-packs would be great.
Conclusion: The Bördy is a practical and pretty Gießhelfer which not only makes easy the right casting, but also done clean. Especially for people without a "green down" is expected as a Bördy be a must, as you have to do nothing more than fill the Bördy. Too much or too little watering there's no longer - really casting can allow everyone. As a water reservoir for the holiday of Bördy is also suitable, but you should take a precaution more Bördys per plant here, since you can not refill in between.
