Small test
I tried a test with some jute rope and it didn't work very well. We bought this cotton rope at the last minute and it seemed to do the trick. I had no idea how to estimate the water so I guessed and crossed my fingers.

We were going to be gone for 3 weeks with no one in the house. This was the best way I could find to water the plants.
