Why You Should Be Bottom Watering Your Plants and How!

Helps with Root Rot

Root rot happens when you accidentally (or purposively&#;I don&#;t know your MO) overwater your houseplant. This is apart of owning houseplants and happens to the best of us. Fortunately, bottom watering helps to eliminate that problem because the plant will only take what it needs. When you bottom water the roots do the work to bring the H2O to the plant. As long as you are allowing the plant to dry out between waterings you won&#;t overwater your plant. Also don't leave your plant in the water for too long. Keep an eye on it. Once you do this long enough you will figure out how long each plant needs to be fully watered.

Helps fight Fungus Gnats

Fungus gnats will be the bane of my existence. They happen and that&#;s okay. A way to get rid of these bad boys is by not watering as much as you usually do and bottom watering. Bottom watering does not leave access moisture at the top of the soil. Fungus Gnats are attracted to moisture especially on organic material I.E your potting soil. So if you eliminate the excess moisture then you can help to eliminate the gnat.
