Overview
Want to cut costs, save time and get huge yields? You can do all 3! Ask anyone who’s got an AutoPot System.
They’re remarkably cheap to run – they don’t use any power at all. You can thank gravity for that.
You’ll find yours easy to manage & simple to maintain. Your system will mostly take care of itself - the clue’s in the name (AutoPot!).
There’s nothing to plug in or program, not even a timer – setting one of these up is a breeze. Each system runs silently too, since there’s no noisy pump.
Talk about flexible - expand your system as much as you like – just keep adding pots. You can go big – really big – Brill View Farm filled their greenhouse with them (pictures above).

48 Pot AutoPot System How It Works
No power, no pump, no timer!
The system works using gravity. Place your feed tank at least 6 inches higher than the top of your trays. Your feed then naturally flows down towards each tray.
Each tray contains an AQUAvalve - this valve allows each tray to fill with 20mm of nutrients.
Once the trays are full, they cut off the supply until the plants have used the feed in their tray. At this point, your AQUAvalve allows more feed to flow into the tray.
Your plants control their own feed - your AQUAvalve lets the pot fill, then your plant drain it. All of this mimics a flood & drain cycle without using a pump!
Pretty slick, right?
- No power needed
- No timer needed
- Nothing to plug in or program
- Easy to use - pots automatically fill

We Recommend
- Keep your system sterile with Silver Bullet Roots. It kills 99.99% of root diseases and stays active in tanks for 5 weeks!
- Only use mineral based nutrient solutions – anything that’s thick, gloopy or contains organic ingredients can block your pipes. You’re sure to be safe with SHOGUN Samurai Terra Nutrients (soil) and SHOGUN Samurai Coco Nutrients (coco).
- Mix perlite or clay pebbles (50%) with coco, soil or rockwool (50%) as your growing media.
- Always put a 1 – 1.5” layer of washed gravel or clay pebbles at the bottom of each pot.
- Keep your tank topped up to maintain optimum efficiency. Introduce more feed as soon as the tank goes below 1/3 full.
- Make sure that you hand water plants for around 10 – 14 days before switching your system on.
- Flush your system every fortnight to keep pipes clear

-
Complete instructions are supplied with your kit. We'll show you how to:
• Choose your layout
• Set up the tank
• Set up the pots
• Connect the tank to the pots
• Moveplants into the AutoPot System
• Get the system started
Caution:
• Avoid any nutrients or additives that are thick and gloopy. This means avoiding organic feeds and products such as Bloombastic and Plagron Green Sensation.
• Valves are most efficient when the tank is kept topped up. Never let the tank run dry. As soon as the level goes below 1/3 full, introduce more feed.
• Inspect the trays every 2 weeks to make sure that the AQUAvalves are free from loose bits of growing media.
• At the end of a crop, wash all of the system components and replace the Root Control Discs. You could also add new lengths of 4mm pipe to guarantee that the system stays clear of blockages.
• Avoid feeding or flushing from above the pots – use the 4mm In-line Tap at the end of the main line of pipe. Just fill the tank with water and then open the tap to effectively perform this procedure.
