Ive been looking at using epoxy putty to make a sealed waterproof area around a soil moisture sensor so that the water doesn't seep through the gaps between the sensor and the hole its sticking out of would this effect the sensor??

I used hot glue on low heat to make my cap moisture sensor water resistant. They have been running for 1.5 years so far without issue.
