DWC 19L Oxypot Kit

Product Description

DWC 19L Oxypot Kit is one of the most straightforward, beginner-friendly hydroponic systems on the market. The plants are placed in a mesh pot containing pebbles and the roots hang down into the growing chamber. Oxypot DWC (Deep Water Culture) systems submerge the roots of the plant in a highly oxygenated nutrient solution with Airstone to encourage very rapid growth.

• Clean and clinical – produces very little waste
• Manufactured from tough plastic

How To Use And Assemble DWC 19L Oxypot Kit

Plants are grown in expanded clay pebbles held in a net-pot suspended just above a reservoir of nutrient solution. An external air-pump feeds air via an air-line to air-stones in the bottom of the reservoir. The air-stones produce small bubbles which oxygenate the nutrient solution. When the bubbles rise to the surface they pop, causing a fine spray of nutrient solution to wet the expanded clay pebbles above. The plant-roots grow out the wetted clay pebbles and down into the highly oxygenated nutrient solution encouraging a large root-mass to grow in the reservoir.

The Oxypot comes with a few design tweaks that make maintenance that little bit easier. The level indicator pipe now sits inside a groove that protects it from knocks, ensuring that nutrient never spills out accidentally. With flat surfaces, fitting an extra gland is made a lot easier if, for instance, you want to connect the Oxypot V3.0 to an IWS Brain Bucket and still use a water level indicator. The net pot (140mm) is now separate to the lid and the access hole cover is a lot easier to remove.
