Please see the Blumat Information page for detailed information on Blumats. In a nutshell, The Tropf (tropf is Austrian for drip) Blumat has become the ideal watering method for growing in greenhouses, for indoor gardening, on decks and in planter boxes, as well as for certain kinds of outdoor plants. It's the evolution of drip irrigation.

Description Convenient fitting to attach BluSoak to 8mm Supply tubing. Simply lock the tape in by inserting it into the adapter, and twist the blue part clockwise to lock in the tape. This is the same fitting we use to connect our BluSoak drip tape to our 3mm line, but instead only features the one fitting so you can attach the BluSoak drip tape to the 8mm tubing directly. Same adapter used for our BluSoak Systems, as well as our EasySoak Systems.

Effortlessly water a 4x4 area with our Capillary Mat Kit. Controlled by a single preset sensor, this mat provides even, consistent moisture across the entire mat. Gravity-powered and easy to use, this kit removes the need for pumps or timers. Keep your reservoir full and let gravity do the rest. Sensors arrive pre-calibrated with two markings on the brown adjustment dial - one for gravity and one for pressure systems. This new innovation makes the Blumat Tropf practical for large commercial systems with thousands of plants as well as preventing the most common problems people have while dramatically decreasing setup time for small systems. Components This Kit includes: 1 Preset Blumat Capillary Mat- 4x4 (IG19154) 1 Blumat Supply Kit Small (IG19155) 1 8mm BULKHEAD / Through-Hull Tank Connector - 2 Pack (IG16900) 1 Nursery Bags 1 Gallon 50-Pack, Non-Woven Fabric (IG19235)

Steep ground but even watering!Most inexpensive irrigation kits require flat ground and a pressure reducer. This special dripline compensates for elevation and pressure changes and normally saves you the cost of a pressure reducer.

Description The BluSoak 2.0 when placed on the surface of soil or another growing medium ensures effective irrigation. This tape can be connected to Tropf Blumats and requires no electricity, batteries, timers or controllers. Without electricity, batteries, timers or controllers; BluSoak 2.0 connected to a Tropf Blumat will assure automatic, even irrigation while minimizing water and nutrient use. It saves time, water, labor, and nutrients while increasing yields and plant health. How it works: In order to compromise between extreme performance and high cost, the BluSoak drip tape was introduced as a component to extend the watering ability and distribution of each Tropf Blumat sensor. BluSoak drip tape finds a balance between the highest level of performance and the lowest costs possible. Water leaks out at an extremely slow rate which can almost completely stop water loss from evaporation if under a good mulch. Because the water goes so slowly, it goes deeper instead of horizontally away from the roots. And because it goes deeper, the roots go deeper giving the plants access to nutrients usually below their reach. It makes the plants stronger, more drought tolerant, and increases yields. Due to its porous material the drip tape emits water at an extremely slow pace along its entire surface through billions of micropores. By placing the tubing on the ground alongside the plants, the drip tape slowly emits water into the soil that gradually is absorbed onto the root zone. Because moisture levels are kept at an optimal range, plant productivity and quality improve. The BluSoak 2.0 is able to irrigate all different types of crops with different types of water demands. This is a solution to gardens with high square footage and/or canopy space that want to utilize Blumat technology. BluSoak tape systems are ideal for garden beds, raised beds, and other large volumes of soil or growing media. This can provide the ideal moisture levels and growing environments for high square footage and canopy spaces, greenhouses, traditional garden beds, living soil, and many unique cultivation challenges. This method of combining Blumats with BluSoak 2.0 results in healthier, faster growing, and higher yield harvests due to its water efficiency by delivering water only when the plant requires it.

DescriptionThis kit provides an easy, fast, and water-saving way to water traditional small sized bonsai pots. No timers, batteries, or electricity required! This system uses a Blumat carrot (sensor) to automatically water and monitor the moisture levels in your bonsai medium. It also has 4 additional distribution drippers that spread water out across different areas on the surface of the pot. And it has a quick-connect with valve to make it easy and fast to move plants when the weather changes, you want to change the amount of light they receive, to prune or display somewhere else.Water source/reservoir needs to be above the garden for a gravity system. For a pressure system you will need a faucet or garden hose and a Blumat Pressure Reducer.

Planning to run your line in loops rather than straight sections? Planning to put pots on top of it or burying it with potentially compacted soil on top? BluSoak 1.0 has an inner half-round line that makes it more flexible and also lets water flow through when a heavy weight on top. BluSoak 2.0 lets more water out with low pressures so we normally use it with Blumat-controlled systems for high water use plants.
