Inspect the can for cracks or damage. Ensure the spout is securely fitted. If damage is found, consider replacing the watering can.

Check the spout for any blockages, such as dried soil or debris. Gently clear the obstruction using a soft brush or by rinsing with water. Ensure the can is tilted at an appropriate angle for pouring.
Handle feels uncomfortable or weak
Ensure the handle is not overloaded beyond its capacity. Inspect the handle attachment points for any signs of stress or damage. Distribute the water weight evenly when carrying.
