Description
The AQUAbox Straight is designed to water and feed plants of all types and sizes that are grown directly in the soil. Positioned directly into the ground the AQUAbox Straight is ideal for watering narrow raised beds. Alternatively, it may be used in a tray to water a conventional grow bag.
AQUAbox Straight is attached to single capillary wick that distributes water under the soil, across an area of up to 4 square feet. With an AQUAvalve at its core, the AQUAbox Straight draws on the water supply (water reservoir) as required by the plants, ensuring an incredibly efficient use of water. The roots of the plants instinctively head towards the water source, attaching themselves to the capillary wicks below the soil level.
Extension kits are available to allow connection of multiple units to a single water barrel.
The kit is supplied with 2 metres of 6mm pipe and a reducing connector with integral filter, allowing simple connection to a water barrel tap via a section of standard garden hosepipe (not supplied).
A spirit level in the lid of the AQUAbox Spyder ensures that the AQUAbox is level once positioned in the ground
