The easiest, and most beautifully designed water meter we've ever used.
Designed and made in Japan, Sustee makes it simple to know when to water your plant. Sustee's window is blue when your plants have enough water and turns white when it's time to water your plants. It's so simple!
Sustee is different from other moisture meters. It detects your plant's ability to absorb water, not how much water is in the soil, so it works in all kinds of soils and plants.
How to Use
1. Insert Sustee into the soil, within a 20 cm radius of your plant.
2. Ensure that it's deep enough so that the surface of the soil is between the two arrows marked on the meter. ▶◀
3. Water your plant generously the first time. This will activate your Sustee and it will turn blue.
4. When Sustee turns white, it's time to water again. Follow the usual watering amount for the plant and the meter will turn blue again.
FAQ
Does SUSTEE work for different types of plants?
Yes, it does! There is a beneficial soil moisture range shared by all plants. It's called "available water capacity", which works as a common denominator for moisture management for all plants, preventing them from root rot and drying up.
Sustee helps you to water the right way to maintain this beneficial moisture range.
How long does it take SUSTEE to change colour after watering?
It depends on the amount of water given and the water retention level. The periods given below are rough guides. With some soils it can take up to an hour. Remember to water generously when you use SUSTEE for the first time.
Size Small: Approx. 3 minutes
Size Medium: Approx. 15 minutes
Size Large: Approx. 25 minutes

Let customers speak for us
from 694 reviewsThe ficus tree I ordered arrived in perfect condition and was exactly what I wanted. The delivery was prompt and very courteous, offering to unwrap and place the tree where I wanted.
Figgy the Fiddle Leaf Fig, XXL
I came across their online store by chance while I was looking for a bonsai tree last year and I’ve been a repeat customer since. They have a nicely curated collection of plants, planters, and plant tools. Their promotional emails are actually useful and not too frequent - I bought Franca handmade planter in blue with ZZ plant because I loved the look of them together on their email newsletter and they look amazing in my home. Most recently, I dropped by their shop to pick up monstera thai constellation and olive tree bought on sale.
They seem to have good sales regularly. Their shop was little but cute and the staff was friendly and provided good advice on plant care. This is my current favorite local plant shop!
