Secure, Simple Watering for Potted Plants
The Pot Dripper (10 Pack) offers a highly efficient and reliable way to automate the watering of your small to medium-sized container plants. Unlike standard inline or end-of-line emitters that can easily shift or be pulled out of a pot by moving tubing, these drippers feature a built-in 2-inch hold-down stake. This guarantees the emitter stays exactly where you place it, delivering water directly to your plant’s root zone.
Designed with a specialized 1/4″ threaded inlet, Pot Drippers securely grip your 1/4″ micro-tubing or 1/8″ tubing, preventing accidental blowouts. Simply use a transfer barb to branch the micro-tubing off your main water line, and push the Pot Dripper into the soil. It’s an elegant, all-in-one solution that reduces clutter in your pots by eliminating the need for separate wire stakes.
- Built-In Stake: The integrated 2″ stake firmly anchors the dripper in potting soil, eliminating the need to buy and install separate hold-down wires.
- Threaded Inlet Security: The 1/4″ threaded inlet physically grips the micro-tubing, creating a tighter seal that resists blowing off under pressure.
- Versatile Tubing Options: Uniquely designed to accept either standard 1/4″ micro-tubing or smaller, highly flexible 1/8″ tubing.
- Economical 10-Pack: Perfectly bundled to help you quickly set up irrigation for multiple patio planters, deck pots, or greenhouse containers.

Follow these simple steps to install Pot Drippers in your container garden.
Step 1: Punch and Connect
Using a punch tool, create a clean hole in your 1/2″ mainline tubing. Insert a 1/4″ transfer barb firmly into the punched hole.
Step 2: Run Your Micro-Tubing
Press one end of your 1/4″ or 1/8″ micro-tubing onto the exposed end of the transfer barb, and run the length of the tubing up into your plant pot.
Step 3: Attach the Pot Dripper
Push the open end of the micro-tubing firmly onto the 1/4″ threaded inlet of the Pot Dripper. The threads will grip the inside of the tubing to hold it securely.
Step 4: Stake in Place
Push the 2-inch stake directly into the potting soil near the base of the plant to anchor the emitter.
