Looking to get into hydroponics but don't want to break the bank? Check out our 36-hole Hydroponic Vertical System! Perfect for the beginner grower, this system is super simple to set up and easy to use.
It is designed to be built horizontally, maximising the daily exposure to the sun. However, you could vertically stack the pipes using your own ideas.
Each of the 36 holes has a net pot/cage to receive your seedling and keep it upright in the hole. Sponges are provided if you would prefer to start and plant seeds.
Included with the system is a recirculating pump that is designed to keep the nutrients moving through the system. It also comes with a period timer which allows you to set the frequency and run time for the pump.
Place your unit in a sunny spot for at least 4 hours a day and watch your plants thrive. Get started on your gardening journey today with our 36-hole Hydroponic Vertical System!
So often, these systems are super expensive, finally, there is a cost-effective option so that you can start learning to grow hydroponically.
TDS & EC (hold) hydroponic water meter
This meter is an essential tool for any hydroponic grower. It allows accurate measurement and removes the guesswork when it comes to hydroponic growing.
This meter measures the concentration of salts (TDS) by means of
Electrical conductivity (EC) and
Parts per million (PPM)
Readings are temperature compensated. Both readings simultaneously display the temperature of the water accurately in Celsius or Fahrenheit. Although the unit is pre-calibrated in the factory, manual calibration can be made if necessary.
The unit will provide 1000 hours of service before replacement is needed.
A simple dip test, in the growing liquid solution, will determine the existing levels of fertiliser in the system. Based on the reading, water can be added (If the concentration is too high) or more fertilizer can be added (if the reading is too low).
Concentration levels of salts or ppm will be crop specific.
