Automate Your Nutrient Delivery for bigger Yields
Vivosun irrigation technology bridges the gap between hobbyist care and professional consistency. By automating the watering cycle, you eliminate the risks of over-drying or root rot caused by inconsistent hand watering. This collection offers scalable solutions that adapt to your setup, allowing you to focus on plant training and canopy management while the system handles the daily chores.
Precision Drip Irrigation for Smart Growers
For growers seeking total control, active drip systems provide the ultimate in customization and automation. Vivosun's FlexFeed series integrates seamlessly with modern grow spaces to deliver nutrients directly to the root zone.
-
App-Controlled Schedules: The
FlexFeed Drip Irrigation Kits allow you to program precise watering intervals via the Vivosun App, ensuring your plants never miss a feeding even when you are away.
-
Eliminate Runoff Issues: By delivering water slowly through drip emitters, the soil or coco medium absorbs moisture more effectively, reducing waste and preventing nutrient lockout.
-
Scalable for Any Size: Whether you are running a single VGrow box or a larger tent, these systems come with adjustable manifolds and tubing to suit your specific plant count.
Passive Hydration and Water Storage Solutions
Not every setup requires pumps and timers. Vivosun offers ingenious passive systems and robust storage options that simplify water management without electricity.
-
Bottom-Feeding Simplicity: The
Self-Watering Fabric Pot Bases utilize wicking technology to let plants drink at their own pace. This prevents overwatering and promotes vigorous root growth by allowing the roots to seek out moisture from the bottom up.
-
Bulk Water Management: Proper irrigation starts with a reliable water source. Vivosun's
Collapsible Rain Barrels provide massive storage capacity (up to 132 gallons) for collecting rainwater or mixing large batches of nutrient solution, easily folding away when not in use.
-
Fabric Pot Compatibility: These systems are optimized to work with breathable
fabric pots, ensuring that the root zone remains oxygenated while staying perfectly hydrated.
Consistent Nutrient Delivery
Automated irrigation isn't just about water; it's about feeding. Vivosun systems are designed to handle liquid nutrient solutions effectively.
-
Prevent Clogs: The filtration components in Vivosun kits help keep drip lines clear, ensuring consistent flow rates for your nutrient mix. Learn more about mixing feeds in our guide to
cannabis nutrients.
-
Uniform Growth: By delivering the exact same volume of solution to every plant, you achieve an even canopy height and consistent flower development across your entire grow tent.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Vivosun FlexFeed self-watering base work?
The FlexFeed base works via capillary action (wicking). You fill the base's reservoir with water or nutrient solution, and thick wicking lines draw the moisture up into the fabric pot. This allows the plant to drink passively as needed, preventing overwatering and root rot.
Can I use the Vivosun drip irrigation kit with the Vivosun App?
Yes, specific models like the FlexFeed 4W Automatic Irrigation System are Wi-Fi enabled and compatible with the Vivosun App. This allows you to set schedules, monitor watering history, and control the pump remotely from your smartphone.
Can I use organic nutrients in these irrigation systems?
Synthetic nutrients are generally recommended for drip systems to prevent clogging. If you use organic nutrients, ensure they are fully soluble and not thick or "chunky." For the self-watering bases, organic nutrients can be used, but you may need to clean the reservoir more frequently to prevent biofilm buildup.
Are the Vivosun rain barrels suitable for mixing nutrients?
Yes, the collapsible rain barrels are made of durable, PVC-coated fabric that is safe for holding water and mixing nutrient solutions. They are an excellent choice for growers who need a large reservoir that can be stored away easily when not in use.
How many plants can the FlexFeed drip kit water?
This depends on the specific kit model. The standard FlexFeed kits typically come with enough tubing and drippers to water between 4 to 8 plants simultaneously. Check the specific product description to match the kit to your plant count.
Do I need a timer for the self-watering bases?
No, the self-watering fabric pot bases are passive systems. They do not require electricity, pumps, or timers. You simply keep the reservoir filled, and the wicks do the rest.
