Enjoy a Stress-Free Vacation with an Automatic Plant Watering System
Ready to head out for vacation without panicking about your houseplants drying out or rotting while you’re away? An efficient Plant Watering System eliminates all travel plant worry, letting you fully unwind on trips of any length. GreenShip Patented Self Watering Spikes build a reliable DIY automatic watering setup in seconds for every indoor and outdoor planter. No complex wiring, expensive timers or bulky pre-made pots required—just insert the capillary wick spikes into your grow pots, set any water-filled tray or bottle as a reservoir, and the passive irrigation delivers precise root hydration for days or weeks. Whether you’re gone for a weekend getaway or a two-week overseas holiday, this automatic plant watering system keeps foliage fresh, eliminates root rot risk, and removes the need to ask neighbors for plant-sitting favors.
Most plant owners face vacation watering chaos: unreliable glass watering globes clog fast, hand-watering before departure only lasts a few days, and hiring plant sitters adds extra hassle and cost. GreenShip Self Watering Spikes create a foolproof automatic Plant Watering System that adapts to every pot size and plant type. Three adjustable sizes (Small for 4.7″–12″ pots, Medium for 12″–17″ pots, Large for tall 17″+ planters) match all your herb, tropical, shrub containers. The anti-drop stepped ABS body locks securely into pot bottoms, while integrated cotton wicks pull moisture only as soil dries. Durable heat/corrosion-resistant plastic works indoors on desks and outdoors on patios, holding consistent hydration for up to two weeks per reservoir fill—perfect for stress-free vacations with zero plant guilt.
From tiny kitchen herb pots to large outdoor patio shrubs, this universal automatic watering system transforms any ordinary container into a self-sustaining planter, so you can travel freely and return home to lush, healthy greenery every single time.

Patented Wick Irrigation Stakes, S/M/L Sizes, Indoor & Outdoor Vacation Use
Stop sacrificing plant health every time you travel—GreenShip’s flagship self watering spikes deliver a fully functional, affordable Plant Watering System built exclusively for vacation plant care. Forget unreliable glass bulbs, expensive smart irrigation gadgets and the hassle of coordinating plant sitters.

Each spike features an integrated absorbent cotton wick sealed inside a stepped anti-drop ABS housing. Simply flip your nursery pot upside down to insert the spikes into drainage holes, then rest the pot above any water-filled vessel. As soil dries, the wick steadily draws water upward to roots, never over-saturating the growing medium. Three tiered sizes fit every pot dimension from tiny 4.7-inch herb containers up to tall 17-inch+ outdoor urns. The heavy-duty plastic resists sun fade, winter cold and liquid plant fertilizer breakdown, safe for year-round indoor desk use and exposed patio plantings.
