Adjustable from 0% to 98% in 2% steps.
Pump flow
High
Choose Low, Medium, or High.
Maximum water time
8 seconds
Adjustable from 2 to 20 seconds in 2-second steps.
Use these values as a starting point. Adjust them after observing how your plant, soil, pot, and water placement respond.
2. How automatic watering works
During automatic watering, the Cube may run the pump up to three times, allowing 15 seconds for water to soak into the soil between runs. It stops early after three stable readings reach 5% above the target, without exceeding 100%.
3. Refill and battery alerts
Blue refill alert
The blue LED flashes when the water tank may need refilling.
Red battery alert
The red LED flashes and pumping is blocked when the battery level is 5% or lower.
4. Power and included accessories
Operate the Cube with four matching 1.5 V alkaline AA batteries or regulated 5 V USB-C power.
