Autopot Tray2Grow watering spike for tomatoes with capillary fabric

Product detailed description

Tray2Grow spike with capillary fabric - watering bags from the inside

Watering spike with capillary fabric for plants grown in grow bags in the AutoPot Tray2Grow system. Unlike the Spike Only version, this spike already comes with capillary fabric attached, so it is ready to use.

How it works

The principle is simple. First, the spikes are fitted with the attached capillary fabric and then inserted into the prepared holes in the base of the Tray2Grow tray. When you place a grow bag on the tray prepared in this way, the spikes pierce its underside. The capillary fabric threaded through the spike then works like a wick - it draws water and nutrient solution directly from the tray reservoir and carries them into the bag straight to the root system. This ensures optimal and even distribution of moisture from the inside, which is not only highly efficient, but also a clean and maintenance-free solution.

Main benefits

• Targeted watering from the inside - water and nutrients go directly to the roots, which reduces evaporation and prevents the substrate surface from becoming waterlogged.
• Completely maintenance-free operation - as part of the AutoPot gravity system, the spikes do not need electricity, pumps or timers.
• Clean and elegant solution - no mess or spilled water, the system waters discreetly.
• Easy and quick installation - you push the spikes into the tray and place the grow bag on them.
• Ideal for grow bags - designed for tomatoes, peppers, herbs, strawberries and other crops.

How to install

First thread the capillary fabric through each spike. Then firmly push the spikes into the holes in the Tray2Grow tray. Finally, carefully place the grow bag on the spikes so that they pierce it cleanly.

The spike is inserted into the hole in the base of the Tray2Grow tray. When you place the bed with spikes on the grow bag, the spikes pierce its underside and the capillary fabric works like a wick: it draws water and nutrient solution from the tray reservoir and carries them into the bag directly to the root system. Watering takes place targeted from the inside, which reduces evaporation and waterlogging of the substrate surface.

Compatibility and use

Fits into the base of every Tray2Grow tray. It is most often used when growing tomatoes, peppers and other plants in bags. As part of the AutoPot gravity system, it does not need electricity, pumps or timers.
