Things They Should Invent: plant-watering tower

You know how when you water your plants, you're supposed to water them until the water starts dripping out the bottom of the pot? That wastes water! Yeah, it's only a little, but it does waste water.

So what we need is a thing where you put all your plants one on top of another, held onto a vertical stick with clamps or something. Then you water the top plant and let the drippings water the next plant, then water that plant if the drippings aren't enough, etc. etc. until all the drippings have been reclaimed.

It would probably take more resources to manufacture than would be saved by reclaiming the drippings.
