Description
Description
The ideal kit setup for a 3' x 10' raised bed or fabric bed if you like the BluSoak double manifold system! Neatly irrigate your garden bed with a manifold of three rows of BluSoak drip tape.
6x BluSoak 5/8" to 8mm adapter (BluSoak hose to 8mm adapter fitting)
2x Blumat 8x3x8mm Tee
6' 8mm Superflex Water Supply Tubing
7' 3mm Water Supply Tubing
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.)
How it works
The Tropf Blumat self-watering system functions automatically. As the soil dries, a vacuum and hydrostatic pressure, coupled with a spring-loaded gating mechanism, pulls water from the main line. When your soil is sufficiently moist, pressures equalize, and the Tropf Blumat automatically stops water flow. Essentially, water will seep through your BluSoak hose only when your plants need it, thanks to Blumat technology. For a gravity-fed system, you'll need a reservoir. 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!
