 Oh my god, they work!!! November 15, 2009
ROBY2000 (New York, NY)
I bought a few of these because I almost killed my plants when I was away for 9 days. I tested them out by drenching the plant and then inserting a filled Aqua Globe according to the directions. That was last Friday, now it is 9 days later and the globe is only half empty. I fugure it may last from 10-14 days as claimed.
Saved my poor plant! October 23, 2009

I have a plant at work that needs to be kept constantly moist. As I work from home often, my poor plant was suffering. Aqua globes have saved my plant's life! Also, my rep as a plant murderer.
 Definitely need more than one! September 25, 2009

I like the way these look but for them to actually be functional you need to fill them about every other day.
 Not so great September 14, 2009
Mr. X (Northeast United States)
I got 4 Aqua globes with the high hopes that they would work adequately. I did everything the instructions asked of me. When I got back after two weeks I noticed that two of the globes had not emptied into the plant. Not so great. The two plants deprived of water barely managed to survive their ordeal.
Since the globes performed so marginally I decided to create my own Aqua Globe system using a one liter soda bottle, some silicon sealant and some pieces of Plexi-glas tubing. I made it much the same way as an Aqua Globe. The difference being the ability to prime my watering unit by squeezing it. Something you can't do with a glass ball. Also, the one liter capacity of my "Soda Globe" provided far more water than the meager amount contained in the glass bulb. I think I need to make more of my own watering units, or just devise a wicking/capillary action mechanism.
Overall, the Aqua Globes are aesthetically pleasing which is why I gave this < 50 percent-dependable product a middle of the road rating.
Looks pretty but doesn't work August 5, 2009

I followed the directions closely but have found that these do not perform as advertised. Soil does get clogged inside the globe but that seems normal and unavoidable given the design. I fill it up with water and it quickly drains out. I filled it again and the same thing happened. So, this product does water plants but not any better than you pouring the water in yourself. But I will give it good marks for its appearance. I think it looks beautiful and at this point that is the only reason I keep it on my plant.
