Pinky, Hi.

There could be several reasons why it's not "popping". Is it homemade or manufactured?

The airtight stem needs to go into the water like an inch (not shown very well in this picture). It may not be airtight. It may also not have enough water in it.

Hope that helps.

Is it bad for the stem to be too far down into the water? :?

no.. the way i see it is the higher the water the cooler the smoke gets because it has to travel through that much more water
