Autopot Self-Watering Systems…..
From the greenhouse in your garden to acres of commercial glasshouses, AutoPot can provide any grower of any ability with a watering system, large or small, that will far exceed their expectations. Thanks to the AQUAvalve technology, AutoPot is the only watering system in the world where each individual plant controls their own irrigation and receives fresh nutrient enriched water exactly when they need it. By consistently meeting the plant requirements, growers using AutoPot achieve even growth across the entire crop.
Healthier, heavier yielding plants that receive
fresh feed whenever they need it
No more daily watering, the system can be left
unattended for weeks
All Autopot systems operate without electricity,
pumps, timers or mains water
Proven to be one of the most water efficient irrigation systems worldwide
Environmentally sustainable, no water is ever lost
Can be used to grow any crop variety; edible or ornamental
The Autopot Easy2Go Kit is the ultimate holiday watering kit for happy, healthy plants. By incorporating the patented Autopot AQUAvalve, the Easy2Go Kit will keep plants watered for weeks using a simple gardening tray and water butt. The Easy2Go Kit is placed directly onto a tray (not included) along with your potted plants and distributes water to the pots from below.
Kits that include the new Autopot Aquavalve 5, which works with 9mm Autopot piping are now also available.
Using coco coir substrate mixes in your pots will be very advantageous for watering from below, as the coir does a great job of soaking and dispersing water throughout the whole pot’s volume over time.
Unlike other holiday watering kits, the Easy2Go Kit provides optimum levels of water to meet the plants’ requirements – without the need for timers or electricity – ensuring healthy, correctly watered plants upon your return.
The Autopot Easy2Go Kit can be installed anywhere in the home, greenhouse, conservatory or patio and multiple kits can be linked together to keep larger amount of plants watered while you’re away.
This inexpensive, flexible system can be assembled in minutes and contains all fittings required to connect to a reservoir of your choice. You only need a water container with a minimum 30 liter capacity and a flat based gardening tray with a minimum depth of 30mm. (A hole may need to be drilled into the base of your water reservoir if no suitable valve or tap is already in place).
1 x Aquavalve Cover – to hold down and level out the valve
1 x 1.5m length of Autopot piping (thickness depends on type of kit)
1 x Top Hat Grommet (size corresponding to pipe thickness). Used when directly sticking Autopot piping through hole drilled into water reservoir. (9.5mm hole for “6mm” Top Hat Grommets and older Aquavalves. 12.5mm hole for “9mm” Top Hat Grommets for the new Aquavalve 5)
1 x Square Sponge filter that may be stuck into Autopot piping inside of reservoir if required
1 x Inline filter reducer, if reducing water supply line down from for instance 12mm irrigation piping, or thin garden hose.
The Autopot Clear Propagation Lid fits snugly onto our 15L pots, so they’re the ideal add-on for both the Autopot easy2grow kit when using 15 litre pots and the Autopot 1Pot system.
These lids can be used to protect young plants from the elements, or to root cuttings directly in your Autopot sets!
Simply pot a young plant and fit the Clear Propagation Lid on top with the vents closed. Over the next few weeks gradually open the vents to harden the plant off finally removing the Clear Propagation Lid completely during the day. If the weather is still a little chilly, you can continue to use the lid at night. Your young plants will be protected from the elements and will enjoy a healthy start in life.
The Autopot Clear propagator Lid fits on the Autopot 15L pot. This makes it suitable for use with the 1 pot system or an Easy2Grow (when using 15L pots!) When the plant is young, place the Autopot Clear Propagator Lid over the pot and gradually open the vent. This is best done over the course of a few weeks, unless the plant gets too big for it! If night temperatures are still getting a bit low, you can still use the lid to protect the plant.

The Autopot 2 Pot Unit system also known as the Easy2grow, is the preferred system used by commercial growers throughout the world. It offers maintenance free growing optimum growth without wasting a single drop of water.
The 2 Pot Unit system will water and feed your plants using 8.5 liter pots without the need for pumps, timers and electricity.
The 8.5 liter pots that are supplied with the Easy2grow module enables you to more plants in a smaller space.
The Easy2grow sets are popular for use when growing vining plants and also Tomatoes, which need to be trellised and trained.
The 15 liter pots used in the 1Pot module and the 8.5 liter pots pots used in the 2 Pot (Easy2grow) modules are interchangeable and can be used with either of the two trays.
An Autopot FlexiTank Tap comes in handy when you are planning or building an Autopot system and would like use a Click Fit Tank Adapter/Filter to run a trunk feeding line to multiple Autopot sets. These taps also serve to replace old, worn-out FlexiTank Taps.
The tap fits through the ready-made holes in both the FlexiTank and FlexiTank Pro ranges and includes 2 rubber washer seals that are hand-tightened to each side of the reservoir with the provided plastic nut. The tap can also be installed into any other suitable water reservoir through which the correct sized hole (26mm) can drilled to fit the tap. Hard plastic industrial drums are often use as water reservoirs when building hydroponic systems. When considering such a container, make sure that the plastic will not let sunlight through its walls. If sunlight penetrates into the nutrient solution, algae will start growing inside of it, causing nutrient depletion and Oxygen loss in the solution.
The outlet side of the Autopot FlexiTank Tap is threaded and fitted with a 26.5mm click connector, to which a Click Fit Tank Adapter/Filter can be fitted. Autopot piping (16mm) or irrigation piping (12mm) can then be connected to feed the Autopots in the system.
Autopot Piping comes in various thicknesses and is made from soft PVC, which is slightly softer and more pliable than agricultural LDPE or PVC irrigation pipe. The elasticity of the Autopot piping molds snugly around pipe fittings when attached, providing a leak-proof seal when used in low and no pressure applications, like Autopot’s gravity fed self watering systems. Fittings can also be removed from the this type of piping quite easily, allowing for easy deconstruction or changes in system layout.
We especially recommend using Autopot piping to connect your Autopot Aquavalves because of the soft fit.

The Autopot 47L Water Tank is a solid water tank of high quality and is a cost effective water storage solution. The sturdy and reliable Autopot 47L Water Tank are ideal for gardeners who have smaller systems or gardeners who are able to grow free from the need for more portable, pack-away equipment.
Please Note:
All Autopot 47L Water Tanks now have a pre-drilled 12.5mm supply line hole, for use with the new Autopot Aquavalve 5.
It is important that you select the correct size of water tank for the system you have. Doing so ensures your plants are properly watered during the extended periods in which an AutoPot System may be left unattended.
Dimensions: 615mm (H) x 375mm (W – at lid) x 300mm (W – at base)
It is recommended to raise your tank to a minimum of 150mm above the highest AQUAvalve, although having the tank at the same height as the valves is also fine for smaller systems (with only a couple of pot sets in the system)
The 47 Litre Tank has sufficient capacity to irrigate (roughly) the following AutoPot Watering Systems:
1 Pot sets – up to 6 x 1 Pot sets
Easy2grow (2 Pot Sets) – up to 4 x Easy2grow sets
1 Pot XL / SmartPot XL – up to 4 x Pot XL / SmartPot XL sets
The Autopot 1Pot XL Tray and Lid is supplied as a spare part in case of breakage or loss of an existing one. This tray forms a part of AQUAvalve 5 AutoPot XL modules and systems.
THESE TRAYS HAVE BEEN REDESIGNED, AND THE NEW TRAYS WILL ONLY WORK WITH THE NEW AQUAVALVEW 5 VALVES AND PIPING… THE PIPING SLOT HAS BEEN CONVERTED INTO A HOLE, FOR WHICH YOU WILL NEED A 9MM TOP HAT GROMMET (not included), TO FEED YOUR 9MM AUTOPOT PIPING THROUGH TO FORM A WATERTIGHT SEAL THAT KEEPS YOUR PIPING IN PLACE.
The 1Pot XL Tray and Lid accepts a 25ltr Autopot XL Pot or fabric Autopot Flexipot.
The needs of growers are ever-evolving, served by an increasingly diverse range of nutrients. With a bigger, 5mm inlet, the new Aquavalve 5 rises to the challenge of delivering the widest range of nutrients in a faster flow for a quicker fill, maximizing system efficiency. Maintenance is reduced and the risk of blockages is minimized.
Compatibility:
Autopot has made it easy to switch your existing systems to the new Aquavalve 5:
The new Autopot Aquavalve 5 is connected to 9mm Autopot Piping, for which various fittings are available. Simply drill out your existing water tank or feeding tray (e.g. Auto 9 XL or Auto8 tray) supply hole to a 12.5mm diameter size. This will allow you to fit a 9mm Top Hat Grommet into the hole, which will accommodate the Aquavalve 5’s 9mm Autopot piping.
If you are currently using a 12mm trunk line, simply switch out your old 5mm T or Cross Connectors to the new 9mm Cross Connectors or 9mm T Connectors.
AQUAValve5 for systems using 9mm and 12-9mm fittings.

8.5lt Autopot Pot Divider – Get more from your Autopot modules!
PotDivider allows you to multiply your plant count without increasing system size. At a stroke, each of your pots is capable of holding four plants – each in its own separate section.
Excellent for tight-leaved varieties, herbs or for rooting seedlings for transplant!
PotDivider is perfect for the pre-veg stage, and is equally effective with plants that simply don’t require the run of an entire pot. A partitioned base removes the need for a clay pebble layer or Autopot AirBase in the bottom of the pot. When the time comes, the Pot Divider lifts out cleanly, bringing your nascent plants with it, making the process of removing plants and repotting an absolute cinch.
Create a deep yet narrow planting pot – The importance of using a deep pot for seedlings, particularly for plants with taproots, lies in promoting healthy root development and ensuring the long-term stability and vigor of the plant. Taproots are the primary root structures that grow vertically downward from the seed and serve as the main anchor for the plant. There are several reasons why a deep pot is beneficial for seedlings with taproots.
Maximize a smaller grow space – Growing multiple small plant varieties in the same pot, often referred to as companion planting or mixed container gardening, is an innovative and space-efficient gardening approach that offers several advantages. This method allows for a harmonious blend of colors, textures, and scents, creating visually appealing and/or multifunctional arrangements. Additionally, it maximizes the use of limited space, making it an ideal option for balconies, patios, or small gardens. By carefully selecting plant combinations, you can create dynamic ecosystems within a single container, promoting biodiversity and attracting beneficial insects.
The Autopot AQUAvalve is a simple but very effective watering device but needs to be treated with care. Keep the AQUAvalve and the tray it sits in clean, free of obstructions, soil particles and it will help you water & feed your plants for many years. The AQUAvalve is guaranteed for 12 months.
The AQUAvalve is supplied with all the AutoPot systems. Once connected to the water supply the AQUAvalve will control the flow of water to the plants, by simple gravity pressure from a tank or water barrel, no pumps, mains water pressure, electricity or timers are required.
