IKEA Self Watering Plant Pot Hack / Flood Rescue

Our friend in H.K., P.K.  Shiu has come up with yet another clever mod – The IKEA Self Watering Plant Pot Hack / Flood Rescue.

“I am at the beginning of my Terrace dressup project. Bought a few IKEA PS FEJÖ self watering plant pot. The color scheme works nicely with the rest of the terrace. Planted our Clementine Mandarin orange tree in one of them. Then came the heavy rain. Because the pot is self watering, meaning there is a water reservior in the bottom, there is no drain hole. With a few days of non stop rain, the pot of soil turned into slush.

What to do? Physics to the rescue…”
