Ollas n°-6 is particularly suitable for market gardeners, ornamentation of parks, green spaces and large vegetable gardens. What is an Ollas and what is it for? Ollas are buried ceramic pots that are used to irrigate plants in an eco-responsible way. The system works by filling the ollas with water to the neck, then the water slowly escapes through the porous walls of the ceramic, nourishing the plant roots. You no longer need to carry out manual watering since it becomes autonomous. A real saving of energy and time, especially when you go on vacation for example. OLLAS JAMET ORIGIN® brand ollas are specially adapted to vegetable plots, plants in pots or in the ground. Designed by a master ceramist in collaboration with earth professionals, landscapers and market gardeners. Gentle irrigation in combination with soils that retain water well ensures prolonged soil humidity, and the use of mulch on the surface improves irrigation autonomy. The ollas are presented as being 100% ecological, with a high environmental value, and are guaranteed without microcracks, with regular porosity verified by plant professionals.

At the end of the season (during wintering) we advise not to fill the Ollas except for citrus fruits and plants placed under cover.

However, in the event of severe and continuous frost, do not fill or leave large quantities of water in the Ollas. Put on the protective hat to prevent the cold from entering more intensely.
