Water spider - capillary distributor 8*1 m including needle

Product detailed description

Give your plants exactly what they need, while minimising effort and resources. The Waterspinnen capillary distributor is a key element for automating and optimising irrigation, ensuring maximum growing efficiency and supporting robust growth. This specialised system allows you precise and even distribution of nutrient solution or water, which leads to healthier plants and richer yields.

Precise irrigation for advanced growers

As an advanced home grower or operator of a smaller professional growing facility, you know that every detail counts. The Waterspinnen capillary distributor is designed to meet the highest demands for precision. Its eight-way design allows individual and targeted irrigation of up to eight annual plants at once, which is ideal for those who want to achieve the optimal development of each individual in their collection.

This system significantly reduces water and nutrient consumption, as the solution is delivered directly to the root system, eliminating waste and evaporation. Your plants receive exactly what they need, at the moment they need it, which is reflected in their vitality and overall prosperity. You will also appreciate the significant time saving you would otherwise spend on manual watering.

Installation and use

Installation of the Waterspinnen capillary distributor is quick and intuitive. Simply connect the distributor to the main nutrient solution supply from your reservoir and pump. Then, using the integrated 1-metre capillaries with needles, guide the nutrient solution directly to the root ball of each plant. The needles ensure stable fixing in the growing medium and prevent unwanted movement of the capillaries.

For optimum performance, we recommend regular checking and maintenance of your irrigation system. Keep in mind the water quality and cleanliness of the nutrient solution to prevent the capillaries from clogging. We recommend using quality filters to protect the system. You will find them in a wide range of solutions for filters for irrigation systems.

Compatibility and recommended use

This capillary distributor is the perfect choice for modern growing methods that require precise nutrient delivery. Its design and functionality are optimised for:

• Hydroponic systems: Ideal for circulating and recirculating hydroponics, where control over nutrient delivery and pH is key (e.g. in DWC, NFT, Ebb & Flow systems).
• Coconut substrates: Coconut medium requires more frequent, smaller doses of nutrients, which Waterspinnen will provide effectively.
• Automatic irrigation systems: Integrates perfectly into any automatic irrigation system for growing in larger containers.
• Growing annual plants: Ensures optimal nutrient uptake during the critical growth and flowering phases, supporting maximum yield.
• ... and many other specialised growing applications.
