I printed smaller versions of a similar self watering pot. Best tip I can give is after you have transplanted the plant the first thing to add to the water is a seaweed solution as it eases transplant shock and stimulates strong root growth. After a week or two, a nice diluted hydroponic solution is great as a feed.
*The holes at the bottom are essential !* The roots like air too. Plant the garlic on the side of the plantpot. Garlic makes great roots and brings air into the soil.
Love the channel, love the man bringing 3D printing into the main stream. Educational, fun and inspiring.So many 3D channels just print models, toys and objects, really great to see functional parts being created that are real world usable.Thanks please keep up the good work.
Hey, thanks for the kind words. You bet I'll keep it up! Also, what I try to remember, I started out printing models and toys and such - so - they are the gateway :)
Appreciate the reply and know what you are doing is expanding the 3D printer community and that's what all devoted 3D fans want. Take it out of the hobby / nerd world into the main stream and that's what you do. Real world channel, not just from your studio but out and about. Greatest respect from me (In the UK) and I am sure many others through the world.
The rum bottle made me think of a self watering solution. If it had a longer neck, something that would reach the desired water level, you could just tip a full bottle over into the fill tube. The bottle would only release water when the water level dropped below the mouth of the bottle(letting air in). Not very advantageous, since it already has quite the reservoir, but could give a visual indicator for when water needed to be added. Also, (not that I've successfully grown anything, but) I've read that when watering from the bottom, it's good to occasionally water it from the top to "wash" the soil from the top to prevent salt buildup in the upper soil. This may only be relevant if you're using fertilizer though. Love the channel!
I loved the surreal comedy bits in this episode! The crying Angus, and the fake rum for the plant parts especially. Keep up the great work Joel. Hi Five!
I just happened to print this as a first print with my new clone titan aero. Mine wasn't fully watertight so I added some glue then came across your video. Great advice about cutting back on leaves to help growth. This is a good tip for lots of plants that hibernate during winter eg rose bushes that have gotten a bit unruly. Trim them down before they are due to grow will help concentrate growth on the remaining plant
Nice pot design and colours, but a clear viewing of the water level might help with getting the right water line, I can definitely see over or unwatering in the future... an update on the plant could be cool too
I made the regular size version of this. It was "water tight" at first, but after a month, started seeing some seepage. Might want to keep it on a plate for awhile just to be safe.
I printed one at regular size and it was water tight at first, but having water in it for 24 hours, there was water in the plate that it was sitting in. I sprayed the inside with "rustoleum leak seal" problem solved.
Practical! Something that applies, even to me. That room in the beginning makes Joel look alot shorter. It must be the size of a indoor hockey arena, and that plant is probably a tree trying to look houseplant, that table is no doubt the size of a house. Wow, everyone is like giants in this film, She's real tall in real life too. Amazing how they got the furniture etc and surroundings to look proper scale! Keep on rocking!
One other thing... the pourer in the top of the bottle is a count pourer. As a fun experiment, pour the bottle into a measuring cup with the plastic screen in it and see how many seconds each fluid ounce takes... I think standard bottles are 2 seconds per shot. The spout used in bars are 4 seconds per ounce or shot. Maybe you could 3D print some different pourer spouts for different flow rates? the expensive liqueur could have the slow pour one so you don't give too much away :D
I've printed that self watering planter and its great, only problem is trying to work out how much water to put in it initally and finding out how much is left.
Super cool design , I think I might print that! Also, where did you get that rad peek-a-boo sweatshirt!? :-) Thank so much for your awesome videos, getting my CR-10S today in a few hours!! PS - Ann is totally awesome and a babe!
I think you should put wick through the holes, so only some water will go up to the roots. Without the wick the upper part of the soil will be always dry and the roots will die. The lower part of the soil will be always be in water, and the roots will rot.
the soil will wick just fine and all be wet, but the roots do have a good chance of rotting and growing mould. These pots are best to getting cuttings to root or for starting seedlings, or for swap plants
Remember that make-your own-filament machine that you reviewed earlier this year? Well, I found a machine that streamlines the process. It's called Protocycler. I have seen videos, and it works amazing! It spools filament for you too! Check it out!
Great model, I would recommend the model that the designer posted on thier website, it solves some of the problems from scaling it up. I did use Titebond-3 Wood Glue to seal it ( I highly recommend sealing it). Even with 3 shells at . 3mm and print speeds at 15mm/s, with PLA, I did notice a few drops woth of water seeping out overnight. I am thinking of trying 3D goop the seal the next one, not sure if it's good for the plant?
Gyroid works better than rectilinear on my prusa mk3. The infill is set at 200 speed at at that speed it grabs the lower layers and makes spikes all around of the filament pulling up. Most of the time it irons out but sometimes causes the part to fail. Gryroid does not have that problem and it goes nearly as fast.
Hello I am new to 3D printing I watch your channel all the time just ran into this video today and I am wondering where I might be able to purchase the red filament you sed on the self-watering planter. Keep up the good work
On a serious note what are the dimensions after you increased this by 200 times it's size for this pot? is it close to a 8 or 10 " plant pot size? I'm making one for Christmas present for my mom. Thank Kris
#highfive I love practical printing applications! Yes toys and props and models are great but actually having a useful product is the wonder that is 3d printing!
I'm surprised your silver insert didn't topple over while printing - there's not much of it sticking to the build plate. I printed mine upside down to avoid that possibility.
La plante était magnifique dans son premier pot, et là je suis choqué tellement la dame lui a mit cher dans la tronche LOL. Pauvre plante... a t-elle survécu depuis tout ce temps ? ( je parle de la plante ^_^ )
Also don't forget that if you're using it for edible plants us the same safety rules for food. People are going to be buying you so many drinks now. Lol
I swear i went nuts when he placed the dirt bucket on the saw stop! I suddenly craved camellia oil! Got a good laugh when anne addressed it right after!
Great video and colour choice but... forgive the naivety...how is it self watering exactly? You didn't go through its functionality. Such as when the roots grow and access the water. What are the holes for at the bottom on the insert? I'm a mosquito researcher and I can see this as being an excellent alternative to traditional planters that act as breeding sites. You should print a screened cap to prevent oviposition in the watering port. Especially if it's going to be used outdoors.
I called it "self watering" because that's what the model name was on Thingiverse. I think it's a bit of a poor choice of name, as to make self watering it would need some sensors :) this will be used indoors, but I could see it being used outdoors I think.
@@3DPrintingNerd Maybe if the spout was modified to hold an inverted bottle of water? Like those small animal water feeders, as the water lever dropped via transpiration and normal evaporation, it would refill the trough. Maybe the hole at the bottom of the spout is restricted to perform this function?
It takes a brave man to post a video of yourself soiling your plants on the internet. Bravo.
God bless you and your Canadian heart.
Oh I see how it is! Hahahah tbf it's incredible that plant survived mine from that era certainly haven't... >_> love the design of the new one.
Let us pray for the fallen..
That crying scene is really really weird
Joel, of course, I don't use rum for plants. I ain't stupid.
I use Brawndo. It's got electrolytes. It's what plants crave.
(Great build BTW)
Plus, toilet water's hard to get out of the bowl, anyway.
Can you compare wanhao d9 vs creality cr10s pro?
Fun fact: Agricultural fertilizer is basically brawndo. Its got minerals in it to feed plants but ironically destroys the land in the process.
Good movie reference 🤣🤙
Ohhh, more of these kind of video's please! Getting people to help out, outside of the 3D print bubble is awesome!
i love this crossovers of the people i admire as makers
That color combination is really good!, I love it
"Plants are super difficult to kill", welp, guess I have a talent then! XD
The only things that I manage to keep alive are weeds. When it comes to plants I'm a serial killer .... or maybe "cereal killer".

After a week or two, a nice diluted hydroponic solution is great as a feed.
original soil is just fine. Just feed it. That planter looks amazing. Some of the root ball should actually be opened up, but it will be fine.
haha this was a strange and random colab but still appreciated.
Love when you make the oversize prints. They always look great. And I love Anne's jacket.
She loves it as well!
*The holes at the bottom are essential !*
The roots like air too. Plant the garlic on the side of the plantpot.
Garlic makes great roots and brings air into the soil.
Ooh, really? Thanks for the tip!
Love the video Joel!! Super excited for our super secret project!
Two You Tubers I never thought I would see together. I was so sure she was going to help you build a wooden stand for it. Nice little two part video.

you turn a simple transplant into an enjoyable and entertaining video. I'll be making one for my wife for sure.
I think of Markiplier sometimes when I hear Joel's voice. I'm really enjoying this channel so far.
That's who he reminds me of! I couldn't put my finger on it. :)

Oh man! This is the crossover that I needed in my life!
This is super awesome, but I can't take my eyes off of the moist dirt on the SawStop..... AND THEN SHE MENTIONED IT.
@Sebastian Oh I just meant because the moisture would rust the cast iron top of the beautiful tablesaw....

I printed one at regular size and it was water tight at first, but having water in it for 24 hours, there was water in the plate that it was sitting in. I sprayed the inside with "rustoleum leak seal" problem solved.
did that leak seal end up harming the plant at all?

That nitrate shock was quite a surprise.
That spider plant looks like it had a hell of a ride over to Ann's....
Spider plants are nearly unkillable but the rum may do the job. Neat planter.
Cool planter Joel!
im gonna print that pot for sure!
Yes I was crying for that poor sawstop.
Hi Joel, I was wondering if you could do a vid on how to tell when it's time to change your printers' nozzle/s
Love those videos.
Nice work! Now if my plants could survive my cats!
Any Idea if you can find Arianeplast in the USA. They look to make colors in petg that I want.
What filament and color did you use for the interior sleeve?
That freaking bandsaw.....so jealous LOL
Super cool design , I think I might print that! Also, where did you get that rad peek-a-boo sweatshirt!? :-) Thank so much for your awesome videos, getting my CR-10S today in a few hours!! PS - Ann is totally awesome and a babe!
I'm guessing that is what you call Anne's type of sweatshirt? I learn new stuff every day!
Print a small ruler, and add a float on the bottom, and pop that in wher you add water, then you can easily se the water level 😉
I love your videos!
Can someone tell me were I can find the model of the little closet you can see on 1:06?
One for the spider plant 1 for me... repeat until the plant is above you 😆
Joel your noise is getting better now, you look less drunk
Uh, thanks?

Use PET?!
Give rum to you? Meet me at my car next MRRF. hahaha I will probably have some in the trunk.
Do the holes hold the soil..?? Or they will through them..
Gyroid works better than rectilinear on my prusa mk3. The infill is set at 200 speed at at that speed it grabs the lower layers and makes spikes all around of the filament pulling up. Most of the time it irons out but sometimes causes the part to fail. Gryroid does not have that problem and it goes nearly as fast.
dont forget to water from above. the water needs to connect from top to bottom to create a good siphon thru the dirt.
Wonder if you could put some kind of float in that pipe to show the water level?
I was printing a small self watering planter as this came into my recommended

Thank

wow good video good way to make a present
Will this work for vegetable plants also?
I’ve heard PLA shouldn’t get wet and it harbors bacteria growth? Should sealant be sprayed
On larger surface prints, I have to nearly if not completely disable aux fans in order to avoid shrinkage and warping.
#highfive

This is the second time I’ve printed and it’s stuck every time - much to my surprise :)
water it with your red bull, it'll perk up!
What could go wrong?!?
electrolytes its what plants crave :)
No he wants to keep the plant, with red bull it might just get wings.
Your thoughts on using pla in gardening and plants or vegies? Is it safe?
It is safe
is the plastic filament UV stable?
PLA typically isn't, but with additives, I don't know the answer.
I agree with the editor at 7:48.
How's the spider plant?
How did you get storm trooper in the back
La plante était magnifique dans son premier pot, et là je suis choqué tellement la dame lui a mit cher dans la tronche LOL.
Pauvre plante... a t-elle survécu depuis tout ce temps ? ( je parle de la plante ^_^ )

Sweet!

Hotaru I kill everything I touch. 😂
Hey Joel, is simplify3d worth it over cura?
I would use Cura and if it does everything you need, then save the $150 for some fun filaments!
Hi, could you please try and review brand new petg filament from prusa ? From my experience, every prusament is worth trying, especialy new materials.
Nice shirt! Space Jace
THAT is a good printer
I agree.
When's the last time u used cube3 ?
Joel don't lie, you have that plant Rum, we all know
Great thing! Will print if one of our plant cans will be cracked.
Joel, did you've started to get rum from your subscribers after this video? :D
is the plant still alive post an update!
Should we send the Plant Police or plant first aid?
IT IS ALIVE! It's alive and doing incredibly well!
I can't believe that thing is actually watertight
LOL, I actually cringed when you potted the plant above the tablesaw
Me too, such a nice table saw to be putting anything with moisture on it's cast iron top.
@@MapBot11 so true!
I swear i went nuts when he placed the dirt bucket on the saw stop! I suddenly craved camellia oil!
Got a good laugh when anne addressed it right after!
wood has moisture too
@@AntiViGames you only have a littlebit of moisture in wood, that soil has a lot more
How long to make a simple pot??
A few hours
Aha... Thank you... One more question how many cm it takes to make one... Sorry
2 or 56 . Never know
Can you compare wanhao d9 vs creality cr10s pro?
Now you just need to model and print a float level indicator so you know when it needs more watered down rum.
Did you pourpously not get soil so you could do a collab
whats the deal with the dog popping up in the corner near the end ? now I am curious!
Off topic guys, where may i find this sweatshirt of her? I Love it
Please reveiw the cr20 3d printer.

Just print a floating frog, bird or something on a post that will sink down as the water level drops.
When I printed this, it didn't leak until about two weeks later but I still haven't fixed it... Plants make me lazy
4:05 I think its a problem with the model, I had the same problem with it, lol!
the printer just randomly drove where the stringing appears
