Description This product is a "save a trip to the hardware store", you may be able to find 5/8" tubing cheaper but we have decided to add it to our website out of convenience. This is an extremely high quality 5/8" braided flex tubing that is transparent in design and made to be Food Grade and NSF compliant. Use this flexible tubing to easily run you water into your Blumat system. We normally use it only to run water into our pump systems, but these can be used in the same way any water supply line is run.

DescriptionWant to use Dosatron products with Blumats? No problem! Inspired by our friends out in Oregon at High Wind Farms we built this kit. Blumat systems generally operate at very low flow rates. This is an advantage over other watering systems for many reasons. However, low flow rates prevent the use of dosing systems like a Dosatron because they have minimum flow rate requirements to operate properly. By placing the Dosatron between a high flow pump and a pressure accumulator tank, the issue is solved.The pressure switch on the pump turns itself on and off as pressure levels in the accumulator tank drop. This creates bursts of high flow through the Dosatron at appropriate flow rate levels. The tank fills with nutrient mix and feeds itself through a pressure reducer into the Blumat system, maintaining constant pressure. Nutrient solution is then available to plants as they need it, 24 hours per day.This kit uses the Dosatron D8RE2. This is fertilizer injector has a variable uptake range from 0.2%-2%. While more expensive than a standard model it allows for versatility and adaptability in your nutrient program.

From Gravity to Pressure in MinutesUse for up to 50 gallons per dayUnfortunate 1-month delay on receiving these. But we can give you a 10% discount during the next 2 weeks if you don't mind waiting. Gravity irrigation works great but has challenges when systems expand or ceilings aren't high enough. Most pressuring systems get expensive and complicated. This new kit solves those problems, keeps the cost and learning curve down, and lets you leave without worry for longer times!      Use this kit for up to 50 gallons per day, our Horizontal Pump Kit if you need up to 250 gallons a day. What This Kit IncludesThe pump kit includes all fittings needed to get from your chosen supply tank to the supply tubing portion for your Blumat system. This kit also includes our adjustable pressure reducer, two pressure gauges, a 3 gpm pump, a small filter, and 2 gallon pressure tank. What This Kit Does Not Include-Supply Tubing for your Blumat system.-A reservoir. -A drill bit to install our bulkhead into the reservoir. ( A step up bit is preferable)
