FAQs

How long will the Aquasolo cones water my plants?

Watering duration depends on the pot size, the plant's needs, and the size of the bottle you use. They can provide water for up to 29 days.

What size bottles are compatible?

The Aquasolo cones are compatible with bottles ranging from 0.5L to 2L.

Are these cones suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, they are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.

How do I clean the ceramic cone?

Rinse the cone periodically under running water to remove any mineral buildup or dirt.

What if the water drains too quickly?

Check if the cone is buried properly and the soil is compact enough to retain water. You may need a smaller bottle or adjust the watering schedule based on your plants' needs.

Can I use tap water?

Yes, you can use tap water. However, consider that tap water may contain minerals that could cause buildup over time, and regular cleaning may be needed.

How do I know if the cone is working?

Check the soil regularly; it should be moist but not waterlogged. The bottle water level will gradually decrease as the plant is watered.

Troubleshooting

Cone is not watering the plant.

Check if the cone is buried properly in the soil. Ensure the bottle is properly connected and that there are no blockages. You can also try re-wetting the cone by soaking it in water for a few minutes.

Water is draining too quickly.

Reduce the bottle size or make sure the soil is compact enough to retain water. Consider the plant type; some plants need less water.

Bottle is unstable.

Use the stabilizer provided to keep the bottle upright. Ensure the cone is firmly planted in the soil.

Algae growth in the bottle.

Use clean water and consider adding a small amount of plant-safe algae inhibitor. Replace the water regularly.
