What is a wicking tub?
A wicking container is a self-contained. method for growing vegetables, fruits, herbs, and flowers. This container provides a built-in water reservoir that allows a plant to self-irrigate. The design is ideal for individuals who are new to gardening or have limited space but is also used by seasoned gardeners.
