NFT Gro Tank GN 424

Product detailed description

The very popular NFT Gro Tank system with dimensions 101x48.5x20.5 cm is designed for efficient cultivation of up to 5 plants. The highly successful Gro Tank irrigation system ensures a continuous transport of nutrients to the roots. The pump is constantly in operation and pumps the nutrient solution from the tank into the channel. From there, the solution slowly flows over the roots and the plant can take up the nutrients it needs at that moment. Any remaining irrigation solution that the plant does not use immediately returns to the tank and the whole process repeats.

What is NFT?

The unique NFT (Nutrient Film Téchnique) method is based on the requirement to supply plants through the roots with nutrients and oxygen whenever they need them. The main advantage of the NFT irrigation technique lies in the fact that the nutrient solution is constantly present in a thin layer around the plant roots. The constantly circulating nutrient film, together with the continuous intake of oxygen, guarantees optimal development of the root system and the whole plant. More than 40 years of experience confirm that cultivation with NFT irrigation systems can be up to 4x more successful than cultivation in soil or substrate. Only well-rooted plants should be placed in the system. Rockwool cubes are suitable.

Protect the roots from light, and do not forget to regularly check the EC values of the irrigation solution. Bear in mind that larger plants will need support in order to grow straight.
