Automatic irrigation systems normally produce higher yields while dramatically decreasing labor costs. Expensive and complicated computerized systems can accomplish this, but only for an extremely higher cost while not working as well. We started off with only Blumat Classics mainly used for houseplants, discovered how to use them in Grow Rooms, then backyards and small farms; now in large commercial operations where the ROI is hard or impossible to match.

Use this special end piece to end your 8mm line and enter 3mm tubing. Use the special 3mm cap to cover and plug the 3mm elbow. This can be used to end your 8mm supply line, and then take out the little end black cap if you want to add another sensor or simply want to bleed water out.

When making a hole for a Blumat sensor, most garden trowels and tools will make too big of a hole. This one - designed for specifically doing just that - is only 1" wide (11"+ long) and makes that job easy while disrupting roots as little as possible. Also great for any planting job when you want to make a small hole or dig out weeds while disrupting the soil as little as possible.

Keep your hands off my Blumats! This Blumat Protective cap prevents unintentional adjustments to the moisture level dial. Great for fending off children, pets, wild animals, or well intentioned employees.It takes some time and some skill to dial Blumats in just right. After you find the ideal soil moisture content, you adjust the valve based on growing medium, size of plants and pot, number of distribution dripper, temperatures, etc.So after finding the ideal setting, it can be very frustrating if a young child or curious co-worker comes along and plays with them, changing your settings. This protective cap will make that much less likely to happen - just snap on top of the valve dial. It comes off again but not too easily, enough to dissuade misguided tampering.

DescriptionThis kit provides an easy, fast, and water-saving way to water a medium or larger size bonsai pot. No timers, batteries, or electricity required! This system utilizes a Blumat carrot (sensor) to automatically water and monitor the moisture levels in your bonsai medium. On top of this, there are 6 additional distribution drippers in order to spread water out across different areas on the surface of the pot. This kit also comes with a quick connect with valve for easy moving of plants for pruning, sun, etc. 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.

A game-changing innovation: pre-calibrated 5" and 9" Blumat Tropfs
These two new products eliminate almost all the problems people have setting up and maintaining Tropf Blumats, save a huge amount of time, and also make it easy to adjust your entire system all at once!
Most of the time people spend setting up a Blumat system involves adjusting the sensors - both initially and when you need to make a change. We can do that for you now so all you'll have to do is plug them in. To make small adjustments later to provide more or less water, you can make a 10-second adjustment on an adjustable pressure reducer (if you have one) and change the flow rates for all at once.
Both 5" and 9" 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.
Pre-calibrated for most soil/media types like living soil, standard potting mixes, coco, and peat; they take most of the work and worry out of the installation! Set just where you want them to be right out of the box.
We normally recommend the 9" Maxis in these systems but also make this 5" size for pots smaller than 5 gallons.
This listing includes one 5 inch preset Blumat Tropf with a protective cap to prevent the setting from being accidentally changed. They come with two markings on the brown adjustment dial. Use the red mark for gravity systems and the blue one if you have pressure.

Description
This replacement brown cap is what goes on top of the Tropf Blumat sensor and is essential for the function of the Blumat carrot. This small brown cap allows you to adjust the flow rate of the Blumat, but more importantly also serves as a critical function in making sure to stop the water when the carrot senses that it is wet enough. If you lose or break this small essential piece, your Bluamt sensor will no longer serve its function so make sure to replace it with this replacement piece.
