More from Autopot.
Reduce consumption of water and feed by an impressive 50%, whilst increasing yields.
Due to the AQUAvalve's capability, they can remain unattended for weeks.
All AutoPot watering systems require ZERO POWER, NO PUMPS, NO MAINS WATER PRESSURE AND NO TIMERS to operate.
Whatever medium you choose the system caters for gardeners and growers of all abilities guaranteeing great results. With the round based pots, the grower can easily rotate the pot while it's still inside a tray. The pots & trays can be easily moved at will, if the plants grow too large they can be spaced further apart with ease.
Also, once set up and a tank is filled with water & liquid feed this extremely versatile system will completely take care of all your plants needs.
Pot up your plants, water through, then allow your plants to establish in the pots for a period of 7 to 10 days before turning your system on. This will encourage a stronger and healthier root system.
Always raise your tank to a minimum of 150mm above the highest AQUAvalve and re-fill the tank when there is approximately a 1/3 of the solution left - NEVER ALLOW THE TANK TO RUN EMPTY.
For best results, we recommend mineral fertilisers such as Hydroponic or Coco nutrients. Do not use organic fertilisers, as they have a tendency to block small pipe work.
Clean all substrate from the bottom and sides of the pots before placing in each tray. This will ensure your system is clean from the start.
Always use free draining substrates, for example: 50/50 soil/perlite, coco/perlite, soil/clay pebbles, coco/clay pebbles, rockwool/clay pebbles.
