Blumat Tropf Automatic Watering System 3 Meter Set

Blumat Tropf Automatic Watering System 3 Meter Set

The Blumat Tropf Automatic Watering System 3 Meter Set is a ready-to go self-watering kit that allows you to water:

  • 12 x 25 cm diameter pots, OR
  • 6 x 40 cm diameter pots, OR
  • 4 x 50 cm diameter pots, OR
  • 3 x narrow 1 meter flower boxes

( For pots with a depth of 30 cm or more, we recommend adding some Blumat Tropf Maxi “carrots”, as these will ensure deeper watering of the pots )

Use the Blumat planning aid to work out how many watering “carrots” you will need.

The Blumat Tropf system works by using gravity and the capillary interaction between the soil and the orange Blumat clay “carrot” cones. When the soil or substrate is dry, it will create a suction inside the water filled cone tubes – opening the diaphragm at the top of the carrot and allowing water to drip from the tubing. Once the soil around the clay cone becomes moist, this suction will cease and close the diaphragm again.

This allows for each individual pot to be watered automatically only when needed, and a single Tropf system can have up to 500* watering points ! The “carrot” does the thinking for you !

Please note: The water tank must be at least 0.5 m higher than the Blumat Tropf system for every 5 m of tube but no more than 14 metres higher. ( * DETAILED INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS HERE )

Please read the DETAILED INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS carefully, as these will tell you all about “the soaking of the carrots” and how to set up each carrot individually.

Whether a person can use a mineral nutrient solution for feeding in conjunction with the Blumat system is debatable – as the small diameter pipping may easily clog up over time with normal salt build-ups and nutrient calcification. A flushing and rinsing agent like FlashClean may have to be used periodically to dissolve any nutrient build-up inside the piping and/or clay cone “carrots”.  An alternative would be to top-feed with your favorite nutrient range as needed and to rely on the Blumat system for regular watering in between feedings.

Your Blumat Tropf Automatic Watering System 3 Meter Set will take the hassles out of keeping your potted plants hydrated and healthy !

 

 

Blumat Tropf System Distribution Dripper Set

Blumat Tropf System Distribution Dripper Set

The Blumat Tropf System Distribution Dripper Set increases the watered area allocated around a single Blumat Tropf “carrot” (orange clay cone with watering diaphragm on top) – extending your watering capacity without the need for extra Tropf sensors (carrots). We recommend adding up to 5 drippers to one Blumat Tropf “carrot”. You could place the drippers up to 1m from the carrot/sensor and each dripper will water an area with a diameter of around 20 cm. Distribution drippers are best installed by using a dripper support.

A flushing and rinsing agent like FlashClean may have to be used periodically to dissolve any nutrient build-up inside the piping and/or clay cone “carrots”.  An alternative would be to top-feed with your favorite nutrient range as needed and to rely on the Blumat system for regular watering in between feedings.

Each pack contains:

  • 8 x Distribution drippers with T-connections
  • 2 x Distribution drippers with L-connections, for the end of each line.
  • 2 x meters 3mm Blumat drip tubing
  • 1 x 3 mm End cap

Use the Blumat planning aid to work out how many watering “carrots” and/or distribution drippers you will need.

Blumat Tropf Maxi Sensor 2 Pack

Blumat Tropf Maxi Sensor 2 Pack

The Blumat Tropf Maxi Sensor 2 Pack includes two longer (9″ end to end) “carrot” sensors, to adequately water plants in deeper pots of 30 cm or more. They work in the same way as the standard 5″Blumat Tropf sensors, but will remain in open until a deeper watering has occurred, read more below…

Bluelab Probe Care Kit – Conductivity

Bluelab Probe Care Kit - Conductivity

The Bluelab Probe Care Kit – Conductivity has everything you need to clean and test conductivity (ppm/EC) / temperature probes

The instrument is only as accurate as the probe is clean. Accurate readings simplify crop management and provide improved growth.

Proper ppm/EC probe maintenance also ensures you maximize the life of the probe and instrument.

The probe surface is where the instrument takes the reading of the solution. If the probe face is dirty or contaminated, the readings may be inaccurate. Much like the windshield of a car, if it’s dirty you can’t see out! If the probe face is dirty, it cannot read the solution.

A tip… if the conductivity reads low, the probe needs cleaning.

Features

  • Probe care instructions
  • 2x 20ml single-use Bluelab 2.77 EC Conductivity Standard Solution
  • Plastic cup
  • Bluelab Conductivity Probe Cleaner
  • Bluelab Chamois (conductivity probe cleaning instrument)

Phytostim is an organic plant-based bio-stimulant.

Sold in 500ml, 5lt and 20lt volumes.

General Application:

Phytostim can be applied every 14-days throughout the life-cycle of the plant.

Root feeding: a 5% dilution with water (1:20), i.e. 50ml of Phytostim per 1 liter of water.

Foliar application (MOST ECONOMICAL): a 4.5% solution, i.e. 45ml to 1 liter dilution.

Not recommended for hydroponic systems.​

Advanced Application:

For more advanced growers, Phytostim have tested and proven full efficacy on the following stages and dosages with a focus on being as cost effective as possible.

With that being said, Phytostim is an all-natural product derived from plants; you as the grower will be able to adjust the below to fit into your growing schedule and growth needs.

Seed Germination:

Application: Soak in a solution of Phytostim for 24-hours before planting to ensure increased germination and vigorous growth.

Dosage: 1:10 dilution of Phytostim to pH balanced water.

Clone Stage:

Application: Soak growing medium with solution of Phytostim before inserting clone. Phytostim can be used as a rooting stimulant or an addition to a rooting hormone. Ensure that the runoff EC is between 0.4 and 1.5 and the pH between 5.5 and 6.5, ideally aiming for 5.8.

Dosage: 1:20 dilution of Phytostim to pH balanced water.

Transplant Stage:

Application: On clone transplant a soil drench is recommended to serve as a nutrient booster, stress reliever and growth stimulant. The soil drench can be accompanied by a foliar application that will serve as an immune booster and general pest protection, especially from powdery mildew and other molds.

Dosage:

  • Foliar application: Cover entire plant with a fine mist with a 3% solution, i.e. 300ml to 10 liter dilution.

  • Soil Drench: Apply 5ml of concentrate to each plant incorporated in the normal feeding regime. Suggested 5ml to 1 liter of pH balanced water.

Terra Aquatica DualPart Coco with FinalPart Starter Kit

Terra Aquatica DualPart Coco with FinalPart Starter Kit

The Terra Aquatica DualPart Coco with FinalPart Starter Kit consists out of 3 x 500ml bottles….

  • DualPart Coco Grow
  • DualPart Coco Bloom
  • FinalPart

The Terra Aquatica (formerly GHE) DualPart Coco with FinalPart Starter Kit also includes a 25 gram sachet of T.A. pH- Powder.

PLEASE NOTE: We are currently selling out the last of the older packaging GHE Starter Kits in the triangular boxes. The products inside are exactly the same, but GHE has recently changed their name and branding to Terra Aquatica (T.A.) Also, the older packs include a pH Test kit! : )

T.A. DualPart Coco Feeding Schedule

T.A. DualPart Coco – A Highly concentrated 2-part nutrient system for coconut coir. Say goodbye to CalMag forever!

T.A. DualPart Coco doesn’t need additives for success from seed to bloom, while other coco specific 2-part nutrients may require additional CalMag and PK boosters. Not so with DualPart Coco, two bottles are all you need!

DualPart Coco is exceptionally rich in calcium and magnesium, but it also contains the full range of other elements that a plant needs for healthy vigorous growth, followed by bountiful flowering and fruiting. This includes the trace micro-elements which give your final product all the aroma and flavor that your plant is capable of developing.

As with most T.A. nutrients you use both DualPart Coco Grow and Bloom throughout the lifecycle of your plants. You simply change the ratio between the two as your plants progress.

T.A. FinalPart – A late-flowering nutrient / forcing solution:

FinalPart is a complete late flowering nutrient/stimulant requiring no additional boosters. It increases flowering and production of active principles, and eliminates nutrient excess.

FinalPart acts in 3 ways:

  • It sends the plant a strong signal that it is coming to the end of its life; this prompts the plant to accelerate the ripening process.
  • It forces the plant to strengthen its defenses and thus increases essential oil and active principle production.
  • It delivers all the mineral salts the plant needs in a form that is easy to assimilate. In case of a previous accumulation of nitrate or micro-elements, this helps metabolize residues, which improves taste.

As a “forcing solution“, FinalPart can be used in any circumstance where you need to control or enhance ripening, and at the end of every flowering/fruiting cycle of annual flowers and fruits to maximize yield and flavor intensity.

Outdoors, FinalPart enables you to quickly harvest a  crop before it is spoiled by cold and damp weather. Indoors, it helps you harmonize the end of the grow cycle by speeding up the ripening of the slowest plants or varieties. And in case of a severe infestation of fungi or insects, it can allow you to accelerate the natural cycle and recover something out of a crop that would otherwise be completely lost.

Inline Tap Adaptor

male adaptor

Inline Tap Adaptor screws into Inline Tap to attach to piping.  Male fitting.

Inline Tap Adaptor fittings are made of black nylon, which is a tough and durable material. The reason these fittings are made black is to ensure the maximum resistance to UV degradation and to prevent the egress of red light into the pipe which could promote algae development.

These fittings have been tried and tested for over 35 years in the harsh South African sun and are still going strong.

Fittings are designed for use on polyethylene pipe manufactured to SABS-533 specifications (class 3 or class 6). When properly used with this specification of pipe, these fittings will not increase the pipe diameter by more than 10% as recommended by the South African Bureau of Standards. Any additional increase in pipe diameter beyond this can cause stress cracking, especially in pipe not made to specification or of inferior quality. These fittings are manufactured with a unique (and registered) barb configuration which is designed to take maximum advantage of the memory of polyethylene pipe, making it possible for the pipe to return to it’s original size between barbs and thus maximising the effectivity of the barbs and improving the strength of the join.
