This is a platform to enable sub-irrigation (self-watering) of a potted plant. Unlike a lot of self-watering setups, this one keeps a dry air gap between the soil and the water reservoir so that the plant won't get "wet feet" as the roots grow down.
It was designed to use a juice jug as the water reservoir, but other containers should work.
I am attempting to use it to revive an avocodo seedling, which lost most of its leaves after not being watered at the local hackerspace...resulting in the goofy looking stick-tree in the picture.
