The Only Pot That Wants Your Attention

(for all the right reasons)

What makes Thirsty Pot Special

Red light = Thirsty Plant

Red light = Thirsty Plant

Like a low fuel light, but for your plant. When water drops below the built-in sensor’s threshold, your Thirsty Pot flashes a soft red glow every 2–3 seconds—so you’ll know it’s time to top up (no frantic guessing, no wilted leaves).

Never Low on Nutrients

Never Low on Nutrients

Add any liquid plant food straight into the basin—your plant drinks what it needs, when it needs. No mess, no guess, just growth.

The Sexy Pot your Plant Deserves

Built smarter and sexier than those sad hardware store pots. We said it.

Engineered for Happy Roots

- Tiny aeration holes let roots breathe and stretch — promoting healthy growth through air-pruning (aka root gym)

- A cotton wick system delivers a steady sip — never too much, never too little

- Easy-fill hole means no uprooting — just top up and let your plant chill

Smart Water Level Sensor

  • A soft red light pops on when the reservoir runs low — your plant’s subtle way of saying it’s thirsty
  • Fully sealed battery compartment keeps the tech safe even when things get splashy
  • Sensor installs underneath the pot — discreet, effective, and totally drama-free

Sleek, Durable Reservoir

  • Made from ultra-durable ABS plastic — strong, stylish, and built to keep it together
  • Clean, Scandi-inspired design that blends right into your space without the fuss
  •  Available in Porcelain White — minimal, fresh, and goes with literally everything

Optimised for Plant Health

  • Air-pruning and a breathable grow medium build strong, resilient roots that actually know what they’re doing
  • The self-watering system lets your plant drink at its own pace — no soggy soil, no crispy leaves

Solid Wooden Legs

  • Screws securely into the base to keep things stable, elevated and looking sharp
  • Made from real wood to add a natural touch that plays well with any space

how it works

Beta-Tested & Plant-Parent Approved

(We sent out test samples to real plant lovers — here’s what they had to say!)

I’d never heard about growing houseplants hydroponically until @thirsty_pot sent me this sample and I can’t believe how well its working! my Alocasia clearly loves it!

@Dryksyd

🇦🇺🐨

Most self-watering pots look a bit meh, but I absolutely love this one! The plastic is really solid and it it feels and looks great — people keep asking where I got it!

@littlemayla

C'est la vie!

High quality, love the light, Super excited to test this out!

… I was skeptical about the whole “semi-hydro” thing at first, but now I’m never going back! The Dracaena I potted is growing like crazy, litterally twice as fast as normal. Like, what are you guys even putting in that juice?!

One minute you’re scrolling the internet. The next you’re repotting a spathiphyllum… this can’t be the reality for anyone except for plant people, right? Real talk, I got this sample from the guys over @thirsty_pot and needed something to chuck in it to test if…

@cottag.em

Vlogger✌️

I live in a small apartment with not a lot of space for plant care... Thirsty Pot reached out and told me about semi-hydro and I was keen to give it a go. It worked wonderfully to dissuade those gnats and my plants looking healthy as ever now!

@Sal.McInns

Grower🪴

I travel like, a lot, and I’ve lost more plants than I can count because I can’t always find someone to look after them while I’m away — Is this my saviour!?! I’ve had this lil guy growing in my Thirsty Pot for about two weeks now and so far so good! the soil stays pretty much perfectly damp, and…

Semi Hydroponics?

Semi-Hydroponics is a method of growing plants using an inert growing medium (like LECA or perlite), water, and hydroponic nutrient. Instead of relying on potting mix for nutrients and moisture, plants can get everything they need, when they need it — straight from the water.

*
How do semi hydroponics work?
Encouraging Faster Growth
-

Plants absorb nutrients directly from the water, meaning they grow up to 3x faster than in soil. No more slow progress—just happy, thriving plants!

Effortless Watering
-

A cotton wick draws water from the reservoir as your plant needs it—no overwatering, no under watering. And when it’s time for a refill? The red light lets you know!

Say Goodbye to Pests!
-

Fungus gnats love organic soil. But with inert coco fiber, there’s nothing for them to munch on—so you can enjoy a gnat-free home.

Happy Plants, No Guesswork
-

Say goodbye to mystery fertilisers and messy compost. Hydroponic nutrients ensure your plant gets exactly what it needs, without the trial-and-error.
