Overview
The Nutriculture IWS Flood & Drain Standard system hyper oxygenates your crops during every feed. The system offers ultimate control levels, excellent drainage and increased scalability and flexibility. The system is easy to manage, accelerates your plants' nutrient uptake and delivers increased levels of oxygen to your crops. The waste rate is low as the nutrient solution is stored between feeds. You can expand the layout and place the pots in any position. You can use both clay pebbles and coco for your growing media. Either only choose clay pebbles or a mix of pebbles and coco. Growers use the Nutriculture IWS flood and drain standard system to achieve increased harvest yields and top-quality crops.

The Science
The flood and drain system is a fully integrated feed delivery solution, which easily adapts to your grow room. You can upgrade the modular layout and add new containers. Feed is pumped from the system's reservoir into the IWS Brain pot at specific times. The Brain pot is linked via pipework to the system's containers. The float switch found inside the Brain pot interrupts the flow of nutrients from the reservoir when the water level exceeds a specific level. Every container has 2 parts, respectively the "Inner" and "Outer" pots. The outer pots link to the system's pipes and fill up with feed solution while the system floods. The inner pots are found inside the outer pots and they're perforated. The inner pots contain the root-mass and growing media.
How to Use
You can easily install and use the system. Use scissors to cut the pipework, spanners to tighten nuts, and a container with warm water to fit pipes over the connectors. Use a timer to set the correct flood duration after you've assembled the system. Place the pots and the Brain pot on the same surface level. Keep the system free of salt build-ups.
