Description Get started using Blumats with our simple, low-cost Starter Kit. If you only have a few plants or you'd like to learn how Blumats work before converting over to a larger system, this kit is just right for you. This kit is made for a gravity-fed system (does not include fittings to attach to a hose bib or pressure system). This Kit Includes: 5 Blumat carrots (5") 1 Thru-the-hull adapter for attaching to a reservoir (reservoir not included) 1 3mm-to-8mm end piece 7 meters of 8mm Blumat tubing (See related products for a 5-Gallon Water Reservoir and optional Pressure Reducer, which are not included in this kit, but may be required to set up a complete and functioning system.) Increase your yields and decrease grow times. Our fully-automatic, self-watering systems save time, water, and nutrients — and still ensure healthier, more potent, and faster-growing crops. Our starter kits are perfect for landscapers and home gardeners. They're easily installed with a pair of scissors and connect directly to your hose, tap, or rain barrel with the help of the Pressure Reducer. Includes five, 5” carrots and all parts required for a gravity-fed system. Reservoirs should be at least 3' above ground-level. An optional Pressure Regulator attached to garden hose or faucet can provide enough water for up to 500 Blumat Carrots (See 'Related Products'). If your reservoir does not have a thru-hull installed, you will have to drill a hole into your reservoir bucket and install a thru-hull piece. For our customers' convenience, we also sell 5-gallon reservoirs with thru-hulls already installed. The Tropf Blumat system is great for watering balcony boxes, planters, hanging baskets, and row crops. It fulfills the needs of the plants on an individual basis, regardless of their location, light levels, or plant type. Our systems save your plants from excessive and improper watering. The Tropf Blumat system remain suitable for plant groupings that require consistent moisture, such as vegetable gardens, bushes, flower beds, grow bags and greenhouse containers. Not only do your plants receive the right amount of water, slow and consistent dripping ensures that your plants receive warmed water, avoiding shock. This Deck and Planter Kit is a great way to start your customized irrigation system. The flexible system can be expanded to include up to 500 drippers. See 'Blumat Accessories' to expand your system to your specific needs. How it works The Tropf Blumat self-watering system functions automatically. As the soil dries, a vacuum and hydro-static pressure, coupled with a spring-loaded gating mechanism, pulls water from the main line. When the soil is sufficiently moist, pressures equalize, and the Tropf Blumat automatically stops taking in water. Each Blumat Outdoor Sensor in the Deck and Planter Set covers an area 12 inches in diameter. To expand and customize your own system, add additional Supply Hoses, Outdoor Sensors, and Distributor Drippers. PLEASE NOTE: Tropf Blumat systems do not include a Pressure Reducer. You will need this if you are connecting your system to a threaded spigot, such as your hose/home water supply or the spigot on a rain barrel or reservoir. The Pressure Reducer is in 'Related Products' below. This system does not include a water source. See 5-gallon Reservoirs below, sold with or without thru-hulls installed. Let us know if we can help you select the right products for your custom irrigation system!

Description The ideal kit setup for a 4'x4' 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. Click here to download the instructions. 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. Want more information? Link to Grassroots Raised Bed Guide here.

Description Traditional drip irrigation systems generally emit water in one or two places. This distributes moisture unevenly, hindering plant growth, and making sensors inaccurate. Blusoak plant rings even out the moisture creating consistent conditions for the Blumat sensors to monitor.  The Blumat sensor gives you precise control over the moisture content in your container. You can easily change the moisture setting if you have temperature, humidity, or life cycle changes. All the components in this kit can function at very low pressure allowing for gravity systems as well as pressurized sources. This Kit Includes: 3’ of Blusoak 2.0 drip tape  3mm to Blusoak tee 2’ of 3mm drip tube  1 Maxi 9” Blumat Sensor  Blumat Protective Cap 3 BluSoak stakes, mega  BluSoak to 8mm Barbed Adapter 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.) Instructions for plant ring set up are here.

Note: Blumat Classics (Juniors) and bottle adapters are designed for houseplants while Tropf-Blumat Sensors (the one's with the small adjustable brown knob on top) are designed for greenhouses, growrooms, decks, and outside gardens. Blumats Austria says "Please don't use the Tropf-Blumats indoors" because if hooked up to a constant water source and a pet, guest, or user-error somehow causes a run-away, it could damage an indoor floor, drywall, carpet, or furniture. We, and many others, do in fact use these systems inside ourselves, however, we are generally around enough that if a problem did occur, we would be able to notice a problem and fix it in time (not the case if someone is on vacation). We have many guides for being able to set these up the proper way and avoid a run-away or general mistakes. Please contact us for any help, we are always here to help make your life easier.
