AutoPot Pot XL Systems - Complete 4, 8 or 12 Plant Setups with 25 Litre Pots
Best for: Growers who want fewer, bigger plants with more root volume each, across a 4, 8 or 12 pot layout, without buying and plumbing every module separately.
Our thoughts
The XL pot is the one to go for if you're growing larger strains or running a longer veg period, that extra 10 litres of root space per plant makes a real difference over a full cycle. Same reliable gravity-fed principle as the rest of the AutoPot range, just scaled up per pot.
AutoPot Pot XL Systems are complete multi-pot kits built around the larger 25 litre XL pot, available as a 4 Pot XL System, 8 Pot XL System or 12 Pot XL System, each with a correspondingly sized reservoir, trays and lids with 9mm grommets, AQUAvalve5 units and XL-sized root control discs, plus all the pipework and connectors needed.
The XL pot trades pot count and density for more root space per plant compared with AutoPot's standard 15 litre Pot Systems, useful for bigger strains, longer vegetative periods, or simply fewer, larger plants per tent.
How it compares
It's the larger-pot line within AutoPot's own multi-pot range, and sits against both AutoPot's smaller pots and other brands' active systems.
- Versus AutoPot's standard Pot Systems (15L pots), the XL range trades some pot count and floor density for meaningfully more root volume per plant.
- Versus Nutrifield's equivalent multi-pot Autofeed kits, both use the same AQUAvalve wet-and-dry principle, but the two ranges use different fittings and parts aren't interchangeable between them.
- Versus an active pump-fed system like Wilma at the same pot count, there's no pump, timer or power draw to plan for or maintain.
The right choice within AutoPot's range specifically when root volume per plant matters more than squeezing in the maximum number of pots.
Usage guidance
Choosing pot count
Match the variant to your available floor space and how many larger plants you actually want to run, 4 Pot XL suits a smaller tent, 8 or 12 Pot XL suits a full room.
Planting
Plant straight into the 25L pots from seedling or clone stage where possible, avoiding an early transplant into the final pot.
Siting the tank
Position the reservoir level with or slightly above the highest AQUAvalve, and check levels regularly rather than on a fixed schedule, larger XL pots typically draw more per fill than standard 15L pots.
Technical specifications
- Variants: 4 Pot XL / 8 Pot XL / 12 Pot XL System
- Pot size: 25L square XL AutoPot pot
- Valve: AQUAvalve5, one per pot
- Feed pipe: 9mm OD / 7mm ID
- Root control: XL-sized root control discs included
- Power required: None (gravity fed)
Who this is for
- Growers running bigger strains or a longer veg period
- Anyone wanting fewer, larger plants rather than more, smaller ones
- Growers upgrading from AutoPot's standard 15L pot systems
Best suited to tents and rooms where per-plant root volume matters more than maximum pot count.
Our take
If your plants have outgrown a 15 litre pot in previous grows, stepping up to the XL range is the straightforward fix, and buying the complete system keeps everything matched rather than mixing pot sizes and fittings yourself.
Good time to buy while you're planning a bigger grow, rather than upgrading pot by pot later on.
