One of the following may be hindering water supply:
Not enough water was given. When using SUStee for the first time, please water generously after inserting it in the pot until water drips out into the saucer. However, excess water in the saucer must be avoided afterwards.
Colour indication may work better if SUStee is inserted into the pot soil before watering, as the device is constructed in such a way that its core will soak up water through capillary effect and change colour.
SUStee has a hole at its bottom for soaking up moisture. If it gets clogged with old soil, excess roots of a root-bound plant or dirt with extremely high viscosity, SUStee may no longer absorb water. This can be improved by loosening the soil before inserting the SUStee device or finding a new spot for its insertion.
If your SUStee was used for more than 6 months it might be time to replace it. Be environmentally friendly and replace only its inner core.
SUStee has a hole at its bottom for soaking up moisture. Water may drain too quickly in extremely grainy earth for SUStee to absorb, resulting in no colour change. This may be improved by pouring water mindfully over the bottom of the SUStee device when watering the plant.
After long periods of use SUStee might not react as swiftly as it should. This may be due to soil sticking to it. Mix neutral detergent with warm water and place SUStee upside down (the window facing downwards) and let it soak for about an hour. Whatever is sticking to SUSTtee should come off and dissolve this way. After cleaning let SUStee dry till it shows white before using it again.
No. SUStee registers the amount of water in the soil. If the product gets wet and changes its colour to blue, it will turn white again, as soon as the soil is dry.
Unless used in excess or if the product contains a lot of oil, it should not affect SUStee.
Yes it is. SUStee dries up at different rates, depending on where it is located. It turns white quicker when it is stuck in a pot.
