i loved these i did my research before purchasing i was not sure if it would work but they do. I tested them out and there is a way i have a hanging plant from the top of my window and she was to reach so i used a plastic bottle and hung it beside my planter and my plant is in love wih it. So far it has been working ive had them for about 4 weeks now and its good so far. For those trying to figure out about how much to water so they dont over water this is agreat solution honestly. I did read…

Worked well, but had to find a weight to hold the end down in the water. Two in a 12" planter, using a 5 gallon pail, kept a 3' tall plant hydrated for 2 months. Follow instructions carefully, immerse in water over night, fill cap, don't allow air into the cycle, poke ceramic end into soil.

Purchased these to help keep certain plants watered. The only downside, the nozzle weight that goes into the water is loose and doesn’t help to keep the tube to the bottom of the water container. Also, you have to make sure the cone is soaked and full of water. I found sticking it in the plant pot and then putting on the cap, allowed it to burp out access air in the tube and suction water. Lastly, make sure you use a weight or hang from a hanger to straighten out the suction hose. Don’t suggest

It seems like most of the comments are from people incorrectly using hydrospikes. You not only have to soak before using, but also fill up with water; the lid comes off. Make sure the soil is wet and be sure the water is lower than the hydrospikes plant so it works through capillary action. If the water container is higher it works through gravity and will drown the plant. The YouTube’s summer Rayne Oakes has good videos explaining the process. When used correctly these things rock.

I've been using these for the last 3 weeks and it either siphons too fast or not at all. I followed the instructions and each device leacked at the tube connection at the cover. Multiple times, the water would constantly drain the water bottle like a siphon. While trying to reset the spikes, the water would not siphon from the bottle. I had multiple plants strat to dry out until I realized the product wasn't working. I went beack to using the a differnt type of product that uses a plastic bird…

They only work for some of my potted plants, the soil in others is bone dry and the water level in my bottle never moves. Frustrating.

I purchased these in order to save a buck from my previous purchase of Blumat water spikes. I was a little surprised with the quality of these spikes. I was extremely concerned because the little ends of the pipe had popped off on a couple of them but it was an easy fix and i didn't have time to reorder. Honestly it was a 50/50 result. I came home to some of the plants being burnt and others that were okay (not thriving). I'm lucky that i live in a subtropical environment and its the rainy…

There is no instruction on how to use it. So you have to search around.Make sure the end in the water container is LOWER than the spike. Otherwise the water does not stop dripping.I found some did not work because the tube was choked at the cap but I was able to open the cap and fix the tube.Overall they work.

One of the cones was broken but since I was in a hurry I culd not return it and just use the other cones. Besides that the product worked very well. I returned from vacations and all my plant were watered and alive after 3 wewks

If you want something to provide more than a tablespoon of water a day to your plant, get something else. Thanks for attention!

Plant parents! Instead of using a fishing weight or rocks to hold the end of the water line tube in the bottom of your container, just use a hairdryer to add gentle heat up and down the line while you're holding it taut, for a few minutes. The plastic will relax and straighten out the tube so it sits at the bottom of your container.
