  • Blumat Water Reservoir - 5-Gallon Bucket w/ Lid & Bulkhead Fittings

    Blumat Water Reservoir - 5-Gallon Bucket w/ Lid & Bulkhead Fittings

    Going fast!

    Description Blumat-ready - This 5 gallon water tank comes ready with bulkheads/spigots for 8mm Blumat tubing! High quality - These buckets are made of HDPE food-grade plastic, and are assembled in the USA! Black/opaque - Designed to keep light out, these water reservoir tank(s) discourage algae growth! Ideal horticulture application - Will work for hydroponic bucket(s) or other gardening uses! Bucket with spigot(s) - Pre-installed, no tools required to get this reservoir working for your plants!   Bulkheads are installed with nipples facing inward for shipping only. The bulkheads/spigots should be flipped around so that the nipples face outward for garden, horticultural, and hydroponic applications. These will work as reservoirs for Blumat watering systems, can work in hydroponic bucket system(s), can replace hydroponic reservoir(s), and are essentially kits for water barrels with spigots! You certainly don't need to be DIY-friendly to use these buckets, as we do the work requiring elbow grease and tools to get the bulkheads installed. These will deliver water wherever you take your tubing! The bulkheads perfectly integrate to 8mm tubing. We would highly recommend our ultra-high quality and durable silicone super-flex tubing. This can be installed onto this bucket - no tools required! It just slips over the nipples/barbs on the bulkheads that are pre-installed in the container. This 8mm tubing is the ideal size for Blumats, and will slip right over the barbs on the 8mm x 3mm x 8mm Tees (included with each Tropf Blumat). This bucket is really like hitting the "easy button" for Blumat systems, hydroponic watering systems, backyard gardening applications, or just about any other application that you require a 5-gallon reservoir for. This is really like a water barrel spigot kit that has already been configured and assembled for you! 5 Gallon Reservoir with two thru-hulls and lid. The two thru-hull fittings are installed backwards for shipment. When you receive your reservoir simply unscrew and flip the fittings. Grow plants anywhere! Just attach your Blumat 8mm line, fill with water, and almost instantly your plants are taken care of. This includes two installed Blumat adapters and a black lid. They have two connectors to make it easy to set up a "Blumat Loop" system. With these the water goes from 2 directions effectively giving you twice the capacity. It also equalizes the pressure and is a kind of "insurance policy" - if your line gets kinked, something clogs it up, or someone accidentally puts something heavy on it, all the plants will still get water. These are made from recyclable (#2) HDPE plastic called "the only safe plastic for drinking water" so you don't need to worry about anything bad going to your plants. The black color prevents algae and other nasties from growing in your water and also makes the water going to the roots hotter - a little known secret for superior plant growth.

  • Gravity System Timer-1

    Gravity System Timer

    Description PERFECT FOR RAIN BARREL(S) - Ideal for automating gravity-fed irrigation and drip irrigation kit(s)! NO PRESSURE REQUIRED - Unlike competitors, this timer has no minimum pressure requirement! AUTOMATIC GRAVITY WATERING - Unlike rainbird, rachio 3, and orbit timers, this will work w/ gravity!

WIRELESS, WIFI-FREE, BATTERY POWERED - No wifi, no wires, no excessive EMF, just batteries!   Forget wasteful lawn sprinkler(s), so-called smart sprinkler controller(s), and systems with excessive drip irrigation parts. This timer is so low-fuss and user-friendly that you'll be throwing away your water sprinklers for lawns, rainbird, rachio 3, and orbit systems. This is the perfect battery-powered timer for any garden watering system, but is ideally suited for gravity-fed systems. Other irrigation timer(s) and wifi sprinkler controller(s) require a minimum pressure input to operate. These timers generally require 10-15PSi to function--but not this gravity system timer. It allows for drip system integration from rain barrel(s) or passive gravity-powered garden irrigation system(s). Intervals can be set anywhere from 1 hour to 1 week, with on times capable of being set to 1 minute up to 120 minutes. This could also be used as garden hose timer, water hose timer, watering timer, outdoor hose timer, hose timer outdoor, hose faucet timer, but it will really shine as a drip irrigation timer and/or garden water timer. This timer uses 2x AA batteries, which are not provided. Dials operate the intervals and on-time, and the timer has a 3/4" Female Hose Thread (FHT) Input (perfect for garden hoses), and a 3/4" Male Hose Thread (MHT) output. This will work ideally with BluSoak and EasySoak Drip Tape watering systems.

  • Multi-Use Float Valve Kit

    Multi-Use Float Valve Kit

    Going fast!

    Description Easily keep your irrigation reservoir topped off and ready for use. Just drill a 3/4" hole and install this float valve assembly. It attaches to almost any supply line and automatically keeps your reservoir full. For small systems, this is a simple way of controlling your pressure without needing a pressure regulator. You can control the pressure by just changing the reservoir height or by adjusting the float valve. The included fittings give you a choice of connecting to your water supply line with a 1/2" MPT, a 3/4" FHT, or an 8 mm barb. The float valve system will cut off the flow of water to the tank once the water level inside has reached a certain level and then automatically replenishes the water in the 5 gallon bucket; as the plants are irrigated. This method is cost saving as it does not require complicated and pricey components such as pressure reducers and flow restrictors. These systems let you hook up to any water supply; city water, rain barrel, pressurized reservoir system, without needing a pressure reducer, flow restrictor or even Blumats. Instructions: Step 1: Bore a ¾ inch hole into the reservoir *Take note to not make it too close to the ridge of the bucket. Step 2: Place in the threaded side on the inside of the bucket. Apply the rubber piece first and then the plastic piece on the outside of the bucket and then screw it down - right against the plastic. Before it's fastened make sure it is the right way up! Step 3: Once you have it tightened, the float valve is 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. Tropf Blumat system are ideal 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 our systems to your specific needs. How it worksThe 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: This 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. Let us know if we can help you select the right products for your custom irrigation system!

    Description This is the pump we use in our Blumat Pressure systems.
