Description
Description This professional moisture meter will show you how dry or wet the soil is at the push of a button. The digital moisture meter can be an ideal tool to help when dialing in your Blumat or other garden irrigation system. Keeping your soil at the ideal moisture level keeps microbes and other microorganism populations happy. *DO NOT GET ELECTRIC/DIGITAL PART OF METER WET. USE PROTECTIVE CAP, ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE USING THESE OUTSIDE, HAND-WATERING, OR FREQUENTLY APPLY FOLIAR SPRAYS. How it Works The ceramic extension is soaked in and filled with water, just like a Blumat sensor. When this is inserted into the growing medium, the medium exerts a pressure on the water inside the cone. When the medium is more dry, it pulls harder on the water inside the cone. When the medium is more moist, the force pulling inside the cone is less. These forces of pressure correlate to different readings on the meter. A reading of 0 indicates standard water, while a high reading of 750 or so indicates sawdust completely void of moisture. The digital moisture meter is a tensiometer, but indicates moisture levels using pressure as a correlative. Reset Your Meter! When you first get your Digital Moisture Meter, it is best practice to reset it. It's also advisable to reset it periodically with continuous use. Click here for instructions.

Wait until after watering media to let the moisture evenly disperse and stabilize before trusting readings from the meter.
Aim for 100mbar on average in living soil. Some gardeners report best results at 40mbar–I personally get overwatering symptoms there. Let mbar readings on your meter be a guide to plant health, not a tyranny that rules your mental peace.
The meter cannot be used in extremely airy or chunky media such as chunky perlite, lava rock, etc. When the ceramic is in contact with air, the pressure readings will be extremely high. However, your plant roots may have access to moisture in these media even when the meter is displaying high readings.
Avoid getting the digital display wet. The protective cap is highly encouraged in all circumstances, and is completely necessary for outdoor growers as well as those who supplement with any over-the-top watering.
Do not drop or otherwise rattle the display.
Keep the digital display in dry storage when it’s not in use. Guide to Blumat Digital Moisture Meter | Irrigation Equipment
Description
These are the highest quality grade fabric pots in the market. Fabric pots keep your soil cooler than clay or plastic because of the breathability of the fabric. These pots will keep your roots cooler where traditional pots can't. Grassroot Fabric Pots contain MoistureLock Technology. A strip of BPA-free waterproof fabric is sewn to the inside of the container, which helps plant health because of great drainage. A triple hem on top for added strength These pots allow water to move downward, which helps to avoid dry pockets in the soil. Regular fabric pots dry from the sides, MoistureLock prevents that, simulating the way soil dries in nature. The bottom seam is sewn on the outside with marine-bonded thread to prevent rot. There is less surface area for water to escape the container, which means less water usage (lower labor) and lower humidity indoors. Because of the fabric of these pots, aeration and air pruning comes from the strip of breathable fabric towards the bottom of the container.

Description
This classic looking solid metal mister, sprays water in fine and small amounts, while being aesthetically-pleasing and pragmatic. The spray is great for keeping plants clean from dust, for increasing humidity, or even for spraying fertilizer if needed. The comfortable handle makes daily misting easy.
Some of the best sprayers are those that can live in close proximity to the plants for convenient regular misting. For that, the mister needs to look nice enough for display like this model. With its stainless steel and polished copper finish, this metal spray mister holds its own next to a prized orchid or bonsai tree. The 10-ounce spray mister comes in copper, brass, or nickel.

The ideal kit setup for a 4ft by 4ft raised bed system! Neatly irrigate your garden bed with a manifold of four rows of BluSoak drip tape. This kit contains a single 9” Maxi Blumat. This allows for a dryback between irrigation events, a desired approach by some growers.

Kit includes:
16' BluSoak 2.0 Drip Tape
4x Blumat 8mm Elbows
4x Blumat 8mm Tees
1x Tropf Blumat Maxi 9" Sensor Carrot
8x BluSoak 5/8" to 8mm adapter (BluSoak hose to 8mm adapter fitting)
1x Blumat 8x3x8mm Tee
8' 8mm Superflex Water Supply Tubing
4' 3mm Water Supply Tubing
1x Blumat Protective Cap
*Customer assembly is required
What You Might Need (Not included in kit):
Connection to your water source (either thru-hull bulkhead fitting for gravity systems, a pressure reducer, or a Blumat pump for larger systems)
8mm Supply tube to connect your water source to your Blumats
Additional Hold-Down stakes or 3mm tubing
Fittings (tee's, elbows, couplers, etc.)
Reservoir- See our 5 gallon bucket reservoirs
How it works
The Tropf Blumat self-watering system functions automatically, without the need for timers. Each Blumat is both a sensor, a valve. and a dripper. As the soil dries, suction pulls open the valve within the blumat, allowing the flow of water through the 3mm tubing. As the soil reaches the desired moisture content, the suction is released, closing the valve. Each Tropf blumat waters completely independently. Therefore the plants are watered individually, naturally accounting for changes in the environment.

Description
This is the pump we use in our Blumat Pressure systems. The 8005-233-236 ShurFlo Pressure pump is ideal for a Blumat irrigation system due to being rated for continuous use and its built in pressure switch. If you'd like to do your own version of this system, we highly recommend the pump model - we've tested quite a few and this one is the most dependable, quite, and has ideal pressure and flow specs. It's more expensive than other Shurflo models but with both a built in pressure switch and internal bypass, we haven't seen anything like it yet.
This is a new and redesigned fresh water pump created with a unique one-piece diaphragm and internal by-pass, assuring long life and top performance in all systems. Constructed for high flow demand, low noise and no rapid cycling. SHURflo's quality reputation has been built on the reliability and dependability.
