HOW TO USE:
These Plant Straws work through capillary action which directs water to the drier soil areas to balance the soil moisture.
1. For a successful water flow from the vessel/vase to the plant, water your plant first.
2. Make sure that all the cord is dump. Do this by immersing it in water until wet. Pull the extremes of the cord down to make sure that the cord inside the straw gets wet too. Careful not to pull the cord out.
3. Make a hole into the soil and introduce one side of the the cord down as well as at least 3 cm/ 1 in of the metal straw to minimise evaporation.
4. Place the other side of the straw into a vessel/vase with fresh water.
5. Refill the vessel/vase regularly.
Important
Over time when the cord wears out, wash, cut down or replace it.
