Memories (of windowsill pots) are made of this; I'm a NYC girl. The spikes are easy to sink into moist soil, and they're approximately 1-3/4" long. I think they really make a difference - and the fact that they're organic is a big plus! I hope I'm being helpful.

I use these in my greenhouse. I wouldn't use them in my home as they put out heat

It has been a year since I used them. I do not think they would last for 3 weeks. A week worked just fine for me. My indoor plants were large, and in large pots. If your plants are smaller and the pots are smaller, it may work, especially during the cooler weather.

I would have to say they are too big for a small 6 inch diameter pot. The wine bottle would dwarf the flowers. I suppose you could use them in a small pot when you are away on vacation just use a smaller bottle. It is very good in a 12 inch or larger pot. I also use it in my flower garden in areas that I find hard to water regularly.

I wouldn't unless you plan to keep them in the ground or to keep them separated as part of a bigger system like hydroponics. The many holes will keep the soil more on the dry side compared to similar size pots. As a general rule, a larger pot will be moist longer periods and keep the plant stress to a minimum for your herbs. I would recommend the stacking pots like the three from Nancy for herbs (on Amazon) or a rectangular window box.

Hi Chad,I purchase these last year and put 8inch pots up with them and they lasted all through a Colorado summer and winter. They were super sturdy!

Sorry to say I did not have much luck with them. I found that if I put the water on the ground next to the pot it would draw up the water. I resorted to the orange plastic tips that screw onto plastic bottle. You just poke them in the dirt next to the plant and the soil does the rest. They worked well for a 1 week vacation. Also found on Amazon on prime.

Not if planted in pots. They can be brought indoors. I live in Florida, and my plants are indoors.

Yes, I have been using them in both plants and herbs indoor. They work very well. I tend to to be "heavy handed" in the amount sometimes but it doesn't seem to hurt the plants or herbs. I just don't place the spikes right at the stems of the plants.

I put it in a clay ~6" pot and mine is indoors. You will need to talk with a botanist or read up on it, I can't answer your questiions regarding pollination.

It probably depends on what your growing. But these don't get too hot. I put mine 4 - 5 inches away from the top.

You can if you start them indoors your season may be shorter also they are good contaner plants I have mine in a pot they do need something to climb on. they are actualy a form of a gerkin. pickel hope that helped

Yes, you need to get a, "High Output T-5," grow light system. You may, also think about a heating pad, if you are starting your plants in the early Spring when it is still cool out doors. I hope you don't plan on growing your plants completely inside your apartment, because I am not sure long term use of the system will work. Mostly, the system is for starting plant and moving them outdoors.

I started my seeds and some of my plants made it to 12 to 14" tall before I moved them outside. Yes I think this would be good for growing herbs indoors and I thought the cost was a very good bargen Scott Alexandria va.

Yes, you can keep them in the pots they come in--- for a time. I think I ordered them about a month before I needed them and they were fine. Stay inside with bright light.Of course the pots are small, so at some point they'll need to be transplanted into something larger. I used them as 'gifts' for an event I was hosting.I've also seen them planted into pot saucers, so you can put several together.

They would fit in the 6" fixture. These high power LED lights all say no heat. Well there is no heat coming down from them but the top part of the unit is where the electronics are and they get hot. What the heck all they can do is die. If you can afford it, try it and let me know how it went. jhsnowden@ev1.net

Our temps here in Mo are still swinging dramatically. 70s one day, 50s the next and night temps still dipping in the upper 30s and 40s -if I would order them now I'd go the pot route. If you live in the South and winter temps don't go below 50, I'd put right in the ground. I planted mine in large (very large) decoratine pots and moved into the garage over winter -our winter temps run in the minus temps and only the strongest survive. My friends who had these plants live in the deep South so I assumed they prefer and thrive with the warmer temps dspite their claim that they are Northern hardy Our temps here in Mo are still swinging dramatically. 70s one day, 50s the next and night temps still dipping in the upper 30s and 40s -if I would order them now I'd go the pot route.
