Product Description |
|
It automatically waters house plants without the aid of a computer or electronic controls. The water supply is syphoned from any container by means of a thin hose and is emitted slowly through the ceramic cone. Your plants can stay in their normal locations and you can even add liquid fertilizer. It's ideal for watering your plants during vacations. When on holidays, you won't have to rely on forgetful friends or relatives to water your plants. Can also be used as a labour saver on a day-to-day basis. |

Great Product |
|
I have used these only the past three weeks and they seem to be doing the job. I went away for a week and on my return the thirsty little plants emptied their water supply. Just ordered more for myself and for xmas gifts. |

Works well |
I purchased 1 pack of 5 probes. They work very well so far. I am using them to water my plants I am over-wintering in the greenhouse. I just put a couple of buckets of water about the floor and dropped the ends of the tubes in. I have to refill or top off the buckets every so often.
Overall, I recommend the probes, they seem to do the trick. |

Working as advertised so far |
I have 10 outdoor plants (6 Geraniums & 4 Ferns) that I was hoping to save over the winter. I've got the 10 probes sharing the water from 3 different one gallon buckets. After two months all are doing quite well & showing new growth. You can see that soil is moist without being drenched.
The one suggestion I have is for larger plants to plan on buying two probes. My largest plant (which is still doing well) is the only one that appears a little on the dry side at times.
This is actually recommended in the brochure that comes with the product, but would have been nice to know at the time of purchase. |

could not get them to work |
|
I tested these before I left for vacation. They did not seem to work at all. I was using them on outside pots and unless I was doing something wrong no water came out of them from the water bowl |

|
Works well with small/medium pots |
|
These probes work great. However, don't expect great results in larger size pots. I think one probe covers a 10 inch pot pretty well. |
