Editorial Review: Product Description: Self Watering Probes are a simple and effective way of watering your plants while you are on vacation. Just soak them in water for a couple of minutes to prepare the tips, then insert the probes into the soil of your potted plants and place the hose ends in a water reservoir nearby. The water will be slowly emitted through the ceramic cones, automatically watering your plants without the need to set timers or worry about electronic devices being turned on while you are away.

 Rating:  - Just Great!A friend in Italy had recommended me this product. It is just great and very straight forward. I bought it this winter because I was going away for two weeks during Christmas. I decided to take the risk because I did not want my in laws to have the usual burden or my plants to get over watered or neglected by someone else who was not acquainted with them. I tried it for a week before I left to see how much water each plant would consume. I had collected many empty milk and water bottles, glass and plastic containers so I could try the size that was better for every plant. In some cases the hose was too short but I solved the problem by rising the water container next to the plant with a box or a small table. When I came back my indoor plants ... Read More: Rating:  - Worked for meI was concerned about my plants while I was away on vacation for two weeks, but when I returned home my plants were in excellent shape. I've actually decided to just use the probes regularly. The probes are inexpensive and easy to use. I'm sure results may vary, but you can always start using the probes before you go away and monitor the results, so you will have a general idea of what to expect. Rating: - Great ProductI 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. Rating: - Works wellI 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. Rating: - Working as advertised so farI 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. |
