We start it when you order and hand it over once it is established and hardened off. That is what makes the olla work from day one: the roots have already grown down to it before it reaches you.

Water it through the olla. That is the only instruction.
A buried terracotta olla releases water at exactly the rate the soil draws it, over a base of well-rotted wood that holds moisture through a hot week. You cannot overwater it and it will not dry out on you. The roots reach the olla before the plant leaves us, so it works from the day it arrives.

Questions
Do I need to water it?
Just keep the olla topped up. It releases water as the soil dries, so the plant can’t be overwatered.
