Using Capillary Action to feed my orchid barks water

[eager2learn]

I was thinking of putting several cotton wicks inside my pot spread around the bark and having it come out of the water hole at the bottom of my pot.

Then, I will lay the cotton wicks in a pool of water in the catch tray beneath.

The idea is to have capillary action feed the bark water whenever needed and all I have to do is feed the catch tray at the bottom.

Here is an article explaining the idea I am talking about.
