This is designed to be inserted in the top of a moss pole that's about 2in in diameter. Both models have a PCO1881 thread adapter on them to screw onto a standard soda bottle for easy watering.
The Dual Drip model is designed to have 2 distinct drip speeds. If you attach to a bottle and flip it over, it will drip at a slow speed into the moss pole. However, if you look inside the cup, you will notice a built in tube running up the side. If you fill the cup above the top of the tube, it will act as a siphon and more quickly drain the water from the cup. The same effect can be achieved by attaching a bottle and then squeezing it until the water rises above the siphon line. I got the idea from a Pythagorean cup which siphons liquid from the drinkers cup if the are "greedy" and fill the cup too high. Its kind of overkill and unnecessary but it was a cool thought experiment and if you want, you can try it yourself.
Print upside down and add support for the bottle thread adapter. The rest
