Autopot Easy2Grow Accessory Box for 12 pots (Aquavalve5)

Product detailed description

AutoPot Easy2grow Accessory Box for 12 plants - connecting parts only

Easy2grow Accessory Box contains complete connecting and distribution parts with AQUAvalve5 valves for connecting 12 plants. The pack does not include a tank, trays or pots - it is suitable if you already have square 8.5l pots, two per one valve (square), and want to expand the system or convert an older system to AQUAvalve5 with 9mm distribution. You can distribute watering to twelve plants.

How the irrigation works

Each pot is served by an AQUAvalve5 valve. After connection to the tank, the valve opens the supply and lets the tray fill with water to the preset level of 20 mm - by gravity only, without pumps, mains water pressure, electricity or timers. As long as the plant does not use up the water in the tray, AQUAvalve5 does not allow replenishment, so the plant goes through a wet and dry cycle that supports healthy roots. After the tray is emptied, the process repeats.

Distribution and hose diameters

The distribution is in AQUAvalve5 design: 9mm hose (outer 9 / inner 7 mm) to the valves and 16mm hose (outer 16 / inner 13 mm) as the backbone with a 16-9 mm reducer. You can branch it into multiple rows according to the layout of the grow room.

For the 12-plant set, run a 16mm backbone distribution from the tank and reduce it to 9 mm at the individual valves - the backbone will maintain pressure and flow over longer distances.

Who the box is for

A medium set for a larger tent or greenhouse. Parts in one pack = fewer orders and a lower price per plant.

What to add to the box

The box belongs to the Easy2grow system (you can find the set for this number as a ready-made Easy2grow system). Missing a tank? Choose the 225l Flexitank. Add the pots and trays as an 8.5l pot and Easy2grow tray, and find the individual fittings among 9 mm parts and 16 mm.
