This is a well designed watering helper for plants. It comes with different watering pipes, to adust for you're plant.

  • the pipes have different diameters (from 0,4 mm to 1,4 mm)
  • the pipes are screwed to the cap and water tight
  • no support needed, the pipe is separated, to print without support
  • the cap fits to a standard PET bottle
  • the cap does not need a seal
  • the cap is water tight

You need to try the best diameter pipe for each plant, it mainly depends on the potting soil, not the size of plant.

I print this usually with PETG, but other materials will be fine too.

For the pipes I recommend to use a brim.

For PLA I recommend astrong brim

Best to print each pipe separately, because they are thin an height.
