The GHE WaterFarm Grow System is a smaller version of the AquaFarm drip-irrigation system - a hugely popular all-in-one hydroponic unit used by new and experienced growers alike! The WaterFarm is good for when you don't have the space for an AquaFarm.
Avoiding water damage:
Sometimes, even with the best hydroponic systems, there are times when a seal fails, a pipe can become adrift or a reservoir may burst, which can cause a lot of water to leak onto the floor. You should plan ahead for what could happen. You can place your system on a Work Tray or Run-off with high sides, or you could use Floor Secure Sheeting to secure your floor in your growing room. You can have it ride up the walls by just a few inches. This will create a floor-basin that could prevent major water damage in case of an emergency. It is better to be safe than sorry.
What the WaterFarm and AquaFarm systems do:
The top chamber is filled with clay pebbles and plants are housed there. Above the reservoir tank, which contains nutrient-enriched waters, is suspended the aquafarm and waterfarm growing chambers. The pump includes an air pump that drives the water solution up the tank through the "pumping columns" and to the drip-ring at top using a "venturi" system. It is then dropped onto clay pebbles. After the pebbles are removed, the nutrient solution runs through the clay and through the holes at the base of the grow chamber before it is returned to the reservoir. The nutrient solution is infused with enormous amounts of oxygen, which enables the roots to grow exceptionally well. A blue indicator pipe outside the reservoir shows how much nutrient is left.
The reservoir tank's hole is where a grommet will be fitted. The blue reservoir level indicator pipe is connected to an elbow. Once the elbow has been attached, the elbow can be fitted into the grommet. A push-in O clip holds the top of blue reservoir tank indicator pipes in place.After the reservoir tank is filled with the nutrient solution, it is time to place the growing chamber on top. Next, the pumping column can be fitted into the reservoir tank by connecting the air-line to the hole at the top. After the growing chamber has been filled with clay pebbles, the drip-ring and t-piece are attached to the top. An air pump is connected to the other end. The air pump can then be switched on by connecting the other end of the airline to an air pump. The air is forced down the pumping column, where it pushes the nutrient solution up the tube. It is then distributed through the drip-ring and t-piece which water the plant with an even and consistent amount of nutrients.This indicator shows how much nutrient is left in the reservoir. As the plant consumes the nutrient solution, this level will decrease. You should keep an eye on your nutrient solution levels and make sure it doesn't drop below half of its original height. You can add more water to the top of your grow chamber by carefully pouring the nutrient solution or water into it. Every 7 days, we recommend that you change the nutrient solutions. These systems combine both a reliable and affordable hydroponic system. The systems are a good introduction for those who want to learn about hydroponics, but they do not compromise on plant yield or growth as compared with other hydroponic systems.
