Lechuza's innovative watering systems help deliver moisture to the root zone using a built-in reservoir. Many models also feature a convenient water-level indicator, making it easier to know when it's time to refill.
Illustration of a typical reservoir-based self-watering planter. Components and watering methods vary by Lechuza model.
1. Stores Water
A reservoir beneath the planting area holds water for your plant to use over time.
2. Supplies Moisture
A substrate or wicking system moves moisture from the reservoir toward established roots.
3. Makes Watering Easier
A water-level indicator on compatible models helps you monitor the reservoir without guesswork.
Good to know: Newly planted roots may need time to establish before using the reservoir. Lechuza watering methods vary by model, so always follow the planting and watering instructions included with your planter.
What Is LECHUZA-PON?
LECHUZA-PON is a mineral-based planting substrate made from ingredients including pumice, lava, and zeolite. Designed to balance moisture retention, drainage, and aeration, it helps create a healthy environment for plant roots.
Need Additional LECHUZA-PON?
Most Lechuza planters include a starter quantity of substrate, but some planting methods or larger containers may require additional PON. Extra substrate is also available for repotting or growing plants entirely in a mineral-based medium.

How often do you water a Lechuza planter?
Watering frequency depends on the plant, planter size, light, temperature, and season. Once roots are established, the self-watering reservoir can reduce how frequently you need to water. Monitor the indicator on compatible models and follow the recommended dry phase before refilling.

Can I use regular potting soil in a Lechuza planter?
Many traditional Lechuza self-watering planters can use suitable potting mix above the included LECHUZA-PON drainage layer. LECHUZA-PON can also be used as a complete growing substrate where appropriate. Some wick-based and specialty models require different setups, so consult the model-specific planting instructions.
Are Lechuza planters good for beginners?
