I have added a 2x3 0.6mm which should be slower in both compact and loose soil and I will keep experimenting and testing\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHave also found that under 1 litre works the best as 2 litres has a bit too much pressure and drains the first litre very quick so I will do some experimenting with 2 litre bottles\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow To Make!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGet a PET bottle (the kind you get soda in) of whatever size you'd like (as long as it uses the standard PCO1881 thread).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenerate your model (or use one of the included example models), plop the stl into your slicer of choice in the orientation it defaults to, print at 0.3mm of better layer height, no need for supports!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrint away\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrew the bottle into the spike\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStick in a pot or garden bed and enjoy (I'm sure your plants will enjoy it too!)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesign by PrinttX on MakerWorld (license: BY-SA).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mymadmanlab","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67382605906224,"sku":null,"price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0987\/0809\/5280\/files\/0_13d491dd-e5c6-4435-86d9-65ace7caa1ff.jpg?v=1784479855","url":"https:\/\/mymadmanlab.com\/products\/pet-bottle-watering-spikes-slow-watering","provider":"Mymadmanlab.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
