IMPORTANT HOW TO USE TIPS
1. Choose the right type of bottle from soda and soft drinks like Coca Cola, Sprite, Fanta, Dr, Peper, Pepsi, and other similar products.
2. Choose the right size bottle for you plant and pot to avoid overflow.
3. To avoid leaking please cut the plastic ring around the mouth of the bottle.
4. To avoid the valve sticking in the soil and losing sight of the drip rate you can turn the valve to point UP with no problems at all.
WE KEEP IT HONEST: Please use 2l bottles only for bigger plants. When the watered soil gets soft it may tilt. Also 2L. bottle may overflow your tray and make a mess, so we advise to use it for pots with bigger trays. The tray will fill up anyway just the drip system will delay it with 1-3 days and give you longer time of moisture if you are absent. It's almost impossible to match your sucking and evaporation rate with the dripping rate, so your under pot tray is the buffer.
GREAT FOR VACATIONS: By watching the speed the droplets you can adjust how long it will last. You can use 12 oz. to 2l. bottles. It usually slows down with the time so you may have start with a higher and test it few times before best results.
BETTER FOR YOU AND FOR THE PLANTS: By using the self watering spikes you avoid under or over watering, keeping the plants healthy. Please keep in mind, that you need the right adjustment. The tricky part is to match your drip rate with the plant need, tray size and the evaporation rate, especially in summer and on a direct sun.
