I would say a #2 pencil but not all the way to the un-sharpened wood. So about 3mm/1/8th+/.125" holes which will close slightly when you pull the pencil point out. Deep enough for air to suck out the water from the sponge. Do not use a hole puncher. It makes a full round hole and takes to long! Just stab it a few times and be done with it.
