AutoPot 8Pot System | Eight 3.9 Gal Pots, 25 Gallon FlexiTank

What Ships in an AutoPot 8 Pot System A 25 gallon FlexiTank that stands about 29.5 in tall and 17 in across once filled. Then eight trays and lids, eight 3.9 gallon pots, eight AQUAvalves and eight root control discs. The plumbing starts with a 1/2 in click-fit tank adaptor and filter, plus an inline tap. From there it is 19 ft of half-inch main line, four cross connectors and 13 ft of branch pipe out to the trays. No pump ships with it, and none is needed. Scaling an AutoPot Hydroponic System to Eight Plants Every pot runs its own valve, so one plant drinking hard does not starve the other seven. That independence is the whole reason this scales past a single tray. Stand the tank at least 150 mm above the highest AQUAvalve, about six inches, and gravity carries it from there. Give plants 7 to 12 days in the pots before the tap opens. Refill at about one third left, never dry, then leave the tap shut 30 to 60 minutes so sediment settles rather than reaching the valves. Do the division before you plan a trip. A full tank is roughly three gallons a plant, which is weeks for seedlings and a few days for eight plants in heavy flower. Key Features Eight pots, one tank: Each 3.9 gallon pot has its own AQUAvalve, so they draw independently. 25 gallon FlexiTank: About 29.5 in tall and 17 in across when full, and it packs flat when empty. No pump, no timer: Nothing electrical in the system, so a power cut does not stop the watering. Half-inch main, branch lines out: 19 ft of main line and four cross connectors feed the eight trays. Click-fit adaptor and filter: The filter is what keeps sediment out of eight valves at once. Keep it clean. Root control disc per pot: Eight discs, one for each pot, keeping roots away from the valves. Runs any medium: Soil, coco or a perlite mix. The valve does not care what is in the pot. Know the tank maths: Roughly three gallons a plant per fill, so plan refills around flower, not veg.
