Alien Hydroponics Rain 10Pot

Product detailed description

The original hydroponic system Rain by Alien Hydroponics imitates rain through its watering style. By copying as closely as possible the irrigation system we know from nature, it achieves excellent results.

During watering, the nutrient solution flows through the perforated Rain lid, so it reaches the plants in droplets. This simulates rainfall and prevents salt build-up, which is flushed away straight away. Even watering ensures that nutrients reach all roots equally and the substrate dries at the same rate. All the solution slowly drips into the substrate after watering ends, so there are no losses. Before the nutrient solution reaches the plants, it is filtered to remove impurities.

Any substrate is suitable for the system - it can handle standard soil, coco or inert media such as expanded clay. The system can be set up as RTW (run-to-waste: the used solution is drained to waste) or as a recirculating system (the used solution returns to the tank), so you can grow in any style and method.

Watering is controlled by the Rain Brain system, which operates both the irrigation and draining pump. You can set watering to last from 15 seconds to 5 minutes, at intervals from 30 minutes to 7 days.

For the Rain system you will need a tank with a volume of at least 100L for the system with 15L pots; larger 30L pots need a tank with a capacity from 250L. You can use any tank, for example FlexiTank. Our range also includes the original Alien Hydroponics tank.

Alien Hydroponics Rain 10Pot has ten pots and is available in PRO Silver (silver) and Black (black) variants. You can also choose from two pot sizes; both variants are available in 15L and 30L sizes.

Advantages of the Alien Hydroponics Rain system:

• Imitates rain - even watering
• Immediately washes away salt sediments
• Suitable for any growing medium
• Efficient use of water and fertilisers
• Even drying of the growing medium
• Completely silent
• Timed watering and filtration
• Adjustable as RTW or recirculating system

How do the PRO Silver and Black systems differ?

Compared with the basic features, the Pro Silver system offers something extra:

• DualFlow 50mm connectors - the larger diameter means freer flow of the nutrient solution, and they are also designed for better drainage
• 50mm silver hose - the connecting hose is also thicker and reflects heat, so the solution does not warm up in it
• Containers and lids made of silver polymer - reflect heat, preventing warming
• Drain with copper coating - roots will not grow into the irrigation system

Each package contains:

Containers, fabric pots, Rain lids, lid covers, container bases, filter head, Rain Brain control system, Rain irrigation pump, Jet-Stream draining pump, power cable, 12v adapter, container clamps, lid clamps, nuts, washers, valve cocks, siphon valves, hose scissors, adjustable spanner, hose clips, and manual.

Rain Black packaging also contains: drain covers, 32mm connectors and hoses: 4mm (green),16mm (green), 19mm (black), 25mm (blue), 32mm (green).

Rain Pro Silver packaging also contains: drain covers with copper coating, Dual-Flow connectors and hoses: 4mm (green), 16mm (silver), 19mm (black), 25mm (blue), 50mm (silver)
