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.
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.
To properly install the Blumat Sensor, see the Tropf Blumat Installation Guide here.
