Ready for giant yields in a system that’s easy to manage with a flexible layout? Invest in the tried, tested, proven IWS Flood & Drain System.
How's it work? It’s all about getting oxygen to the roots.
When feeding, plant pots are flooded with feed. When feeding ends, pots are quickly drained of feed. This locks oxygen in the rootzone, to drive nutrient uptake, fuel growth & prevent nasty root diseases.
It's simple, but it works.
Waste is low - drained feed is stored between floods. It'll run quietly too, the pump's hardly ever on!
It’s easy to fine tune your flood times using a segmental timer (located on the side of the brain).
Your layout’s flexible…expand it & position pots however you want – all pots are connected to a central feed tank individually or in groups. Pots sit on the floor too, height's hardly an issue.
Note that these kits now come with black flexi pipe, rather than white RhizoLine pipe.
1. Choosing your media
Use clay pebbles – they hold lots of air, but hardly any nutrients. They’re perfect for flood and drain.
Or
To flood less often, mix 20 – 40% of coco with 60 – 80% of clay pebbles. The mix will hold more water, so you can flood less often. You can mix this yourself, or buy it pre-mixed.
2. Keeping a sterile system
Keep your system sterile with Silver Bullet Roots. It kills 99.99% of root diseases and stays active in tanks for 5 weeks!
If you already use Oxy-Plus 11.9%, switch to Silver Bullet and you’ll save 55%.

For best result, use it with SHOGUN Hydro Nutrients – the best base feed for hydro systems.

Place RhizoPots on the inside each pot to prevent root blockages. They naturally air prune roots, so they won't grow into your feed pipe and cause blockages.
