You get the programmable control of expensive flood \u0026amp; drain rigs, the simplicity of gravity-fed systems, and none of the blockage nightmares. Thick pipework, battery timer, dry-back cycles built in — it's the thinking grower's entry into automation. One we recommend a lot for folk stepping up from hand watering.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eEasyFeed System - 10 litre\u003c\/strong\u003e is a \u003cstrong\u003egravity-fed automatic irrigation kit\u003c\/strong\u003e designed for soil and coco growers who want precision feeding schedules without pumps, power supplies, or daily babysitting. It combines the simplicity of bottom-fed growing with a battery-powered timer that gives you control over when and how often your plants get watered — hourly, daily, every few days, or weekly. Everything you need comes in the box: fabric pots, trays, filter, timer, and 13mm pipework. No electricity. No moving parts. No noise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow it compares\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis sits firmly between passive gravity systems and complex automated rigs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003evs AutoPot:\u003c\/strong\u003e Both gravity-fed, but EasyFeed adds a programmable timer for dry-back cycles and thicker 13mm pipes that don't clog with nutrients.

Let the dry periods do the work — that's when roots search downward and air gets back into the rootzone. Works brilliantly with mixed media too (coco\/clay pebbles blends).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCoco growing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCoco dries quicker than soil, so you might run feeds every 12-24 hours depending on pot size and temperature. The beauty of EasyFeed is you dial this in yourself. Use coco-specific nutrients; the system handles them without clogging like smaller-pipe competitors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBottom-feeding principle\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWater sits in the tray below fabric pots and gets absorbed upward through the substrate. Roots chase the moisture downward, building a dense root mass that fills the entire pot. Dry periods between feeds force roots to keep searching, promoting horizontal and vertical development. This is where you get better yields than hand watering — your rootzone gets oxygen recovery time that hand-watered pots don't.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScaling up\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe pipework comes uncut, so you configure your own layout. Start with one pot, add more later. Stack rows. Build whatever footprint suits your space.
