How to Use your Thirsty Light:
1. Check plant pot's drainage holes. If blocked or clogged, use a
pencil or straw to clear.
2. Pour water evenly over the entire surface of the plant's soil
until water comes out the drainage holes.
3. Drain water at the base of the plant.
4. Twist the bottom of the Thirsty Light to the "ON" position.
Watch the main body of the bug for a long, single light blink. If
you do not see this, change the bug's batteries.
5. Push the Thirsty Light into the soil in the area between the pot
rim and the plant stem, up to about one inch below the black
battery casing. Place the light where you'll be able to see it –
not obscured by leaves or flowers. Do not let the black body
casing touch the soil.
6. Press the soil around the probe snugly to keep the probe
upright. Avoid moving the soil or touching the probe after it
is inserted.
7. Check the light in the bug's body. A fast-blinking light means
the soil is dry and it is time to add water.
8. Repeat the process with additional Thirsty Lights in other
plants. We recommend purchasing one Light per potted plant
– complete your collection of bugs!
Tips:
• Do not use softened water with this product.
• After prolonged exposure to soil and water, the metal probe
may change color. This is a natural part of the corrosion process
and does not signal a need for replacement.
• Do not use the Thirsty Light with coarse soil, sandy soils, or
orchid mix.
• An over-fertilized pot may give a false reading, preventing the
bug from blinking, even when the soil is actually dry.
Best Battery Practices:
• The Thirsty Light takes two 1.5V AG13 batteries, in the black
casing between the bottom of the bug and the top of the
probe. A Phillips-head screwdriver is required to change the
casing.
• To test the batteries, turn the Light to the "OFF" position and
immediately to the "ON" position. One long blink means the
batteries are ready for use. Triple blink with a pause or no
blinking at all means it is time to change the batteries.
