AutoPot System is a universal irrigation system suitable for growing most edible and ornamental plants. It can be used in greenhouses, garden or at home, regardless of the degree of experience. It can be grown both in typically hydroponic substrates, having the advantages of soilless cultivation, as well as in soil, coconut or mineral wool. Acting automatically system allows you to save a lot of time, leave for a long weekend and be sure healthy plants, at the same time successful harvest, without the risk of drying.
Why AUTOPOT system?
- End of daily watering,
- The system can be left unattended until the medium is exhausted from the tank (depending on the size and type of system and cultivated plants up to 2 weeks)
- Lack of power, pumps, time programmers or special sewer connections, gravitational pressure is the strength of this system,
- Water and fertilizer savings, the system is closed, all water is used by plants,
- No need to constantly monitor pH/EC
- Easy, intuitive operation,
- Low maintenance costs,
- There are no limits on the size of the system,
- The possibility of free placement of pots,
- No need to rinse each plant at the end of flowering, it is enough to pour clean water into the tank,
- The AutoPot system makes cultivation simple, automatic ideal for busy hobbyists as well as for commercial people.
After connecting the pots to the tank, filling it with water and a suitable plant medium, the system irrigates the plants according to their needs, thanks to the AQUAvalve dispenser. This system is responsible for water supply, blocking the supply, so that the roots can use the water poured into the stand, dry, at the same time oxygenate, after which the stand is refilled to the level of 20mm.
Important information:
- The manufacturer recommends the use of 6mm medium supply hoses in 1-7 pot systems. Above 8 pots, it is recommended to use a 16mm thick tube.
- Depending on how large the system is, our water tank should be adequate to the number of pots.
- The tank should be placed min. 15cm higher than pots so that the gravitational pressure effectively irrigated the system.
- The recommended substrates are soil/coconut/mineral wool in a ratio of 50%/50% with perlite/expanded clay.
- It is necessary to regularly replenish the main tank with a suitable plant medium.
