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.

• 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 of 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 a 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 from the lid and the access hole cover is a lot easier to remove.
