Alien Hydroponics RAIN System - 10 Pot 2 Row Kit

Struggling with inconsistent nutrient distribution and uneven plant growth? The Alien Hydroponics RAIN System - 10 Pot 2 Row Kit solves these challenges by mimicking natural rainfall to deliver water and nutrients evenly across all your plants. This innovative top-feed system ensures optimal nutrient absorption, superior oxygenation, and healthy root development while preventing common issues like root rot, nutrient lockout, and salt buildup.

Designed for growers ready to scale beyond hobby-level cultivation, the RAIN System offers the perfect balance of performance and practicality. It works seamlessly with various growing mediums including soil, coco, and clay pebbles, giving you complete flexibility in your grow approach. The automated feeding system eliminates tedious manual watering while the efficient drainage design prevents waterlogging and washes away residual salts. Available in both 4-gallon (15L) and 8-gallon (30L) pot configurations, you can customize the system to match your space and plant requirements. For larger operations, explore the 24 Pot 3 Row RAIN system or the 36 Pot 4 Row RAIN system.

Please note: A nutrient reservoir/tank is required for operation but is not included with the kit. We recommend using a tank with a minimum capacity of 30 gallons. GardenTank collapsible tanks are available, or you may supply your own.
