What's the benefit of terracotta for peppers?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

They are called ollas, but it is a method of using a terracotta pot that you fill with water and keep in the dirt by the plants. As the water through osmosis diffuses through the terracotta, the roots will grow around it, creating a method of self-watering.
