Bubbler in soil increasing oxygen?

[AlwaysToken12]

Hey guys, whenever I water my plants (every 3 days) my plants droop a little.. I was wondering if i stuck a bubbler with airstone in each pot (and keep it in there) if that would increase oxygen levels and maybe increase plant growth? Any thoughts P.s. Remember this is in soil

I doubt it, unless your heavily over-watering.

stick you index finger half way down into the pot, if soil doesn't stick to you finger, water it.( the plant, not your finger)

oh and no roots don't take oxygen that way, it is in the form of h2o

Well i guess i kinda stated My question wrong.. will putting a airstone in help drain soil faster(maybe air it out)

think youd be better off putting some large rocks/pebbles at the bottom of your pot. or invert a cup or something with holes in it to create an air pocket at the bottom of your pot.

that droopiness sounds like you may be watering a little early. is the soil dry when u water?

Ya, i just have crappy soil... (trying to do a low cost grow)

Your wrong roots do take up straight air from the soil hence the reason you add perilite to your soil to make sure your soil drains well and YOUR ROOTS CAN BREATH!!!!!
