    Default New Watering System

    I was having trouble with soaking my orchids. They're all in clear, plastic pots so every time I'd soak them in a bin they would fall over due to the light weight of the pots. So I found these cups that are just a fraction bigger than four inches in diameter. I had to edit the photos a bit because the cups were a promotional item for a beverage company back in the early 90s and have logos on them. All my orchids in four inch pots fit perfectly in these cups and can soak without tipping over. Now all I need to do is find similar cups that have a five inch diameter. Does anyone else soak their orchids in cups like this? I'm curious to know and hear ideas on how to expand.
