Rainforest 72 12 Volts

Product detailed description

Fast large-scale propagation, without a cover

You can root dozens of cuttings at once and without constant supervision - Rainforest 72 offers 72 growing sites in one basin and takes care of humidity and oxygen for you. Inside, a vortex spray head driven by a motor works: it forces oxygenated nutrient solution against the underside of the plate with holes, into which you place plants or cuttings through neoprene discs. The roots therefore hang in a fine, oxygen-rich mist.

The neoprene discs have replaced the earlier mesh baskets - they are easy to clean and you can use them repeatedly. The system works without a cover, so you can keep an eye on the cuttings at all times. The unit measures 67 x 67 x 31 cm and the tank holds 70 litres of solution. Our version is powered by a vortex motor in a low-voltage 12V variant.

Why it pays off

If you propagate regularly, Rainforest 72 saves you mainly time and losses. Instead of dozens of individual propagators, you operate one basin in which the cuttings root evenly and under control. The neoprene discs last for many cycles, so the investment pays back with every further batch of clones. The unit is suitable for professional and demanding home propagation, where pace and reliability matter.

What you will need additionally

You add nutrient solution to the system; fertilisers from the Terra Aquatica range are suitable. A timer or air pump is not needed with vortex spraying. The replacement heart of the system - the vortex motor - can be purchased separately as the Rainforest motor 12V. If you are looking for a smaller propagator, take a look at the compact CuttingBoard 27. You can find the whole range in the Rainforest category.

Frequently asked questions

How many plants or cuttings is Rainforest 72 for?

Rainforest 72 has 72 growing sites in one vortex basin, so you can root or grow up to 72 cuttings or young plants at once. It is suitable for growers who propagate in large quantities and want fast, even rooting. If you need a smaller capacity, choose the CuttingBoard 27 propagator with 27 sites.

Do I need to cover the cuttings with a lid?

No. Rainforest 72 works without a cover - the vortex spray head continuously oxygenates the nutrient solution and keeps the roots in a moist, oxygen-rich mist. The cuttings therefore remain visible at all times and you can easily monitor their condition and root development.
