Autopot Piping comes in various thicknesses and is made from soft PVC, which is slightly softer and more pliable than agricultural LDPE or PVC irrigation pipe. The elasticity of the Autopot piping molds snugly around pipe fittings when attached, providing a leak-proof seal when used in low and no pressure applications, like Autopot’s gravity fed self watering systems. Fittings can also be removed from the this type of piping quite easily, allowing for easy deconstruction or changes in system layout.

We especially recommend using Autopot piping to connect your Autopot Aquavalves because of the soft fit.

Piping is sold per meter.

By using an air pump, you can take advantage of the diffusion of air into water. When placed at the bottom of your reservoir and used in conjunction with an airstone, the bubbles produced will increase the dissolved oxygen level of your nutrient reservoir. The bubbles will also keep your reservoir evenly mixed, which is a nice side benefit.

Pump Specifications

Air stones create tiny bubbles of oxygen in your hydroponic tank when air is forced through the stone. The bubbles make the dissolved oxygen disperse more widely throughout your system. The  oxygen bubbles are pushed through the system with an air pump. The stones themselves are submerged in the water or nutrient solution inside your reservoir. The stones themselves do not actually generate oxygen but rather act as a mechanism to disperse the oxygen.

Air tubing is used to connect your air pump to air stones in your hydroponic system. The air tubing is compatible with most pumps and air stones.  The air tubing is clear and flexible but it must be noted that the regular air tubing is more rigid than the silicone tubing. Regular air tubing is prone to crimping and flat spots if bent for extended periods of time whereas the silicone air tubing is much more flexible, softer and pliable.

 Air tubing is available in regular and silicon and is sold per running meter.

Can increase your yield up to 50%! Raising your grow to an ideal 1200 ppm. Perfect for explosive plant growth.

The AirDome is the perfect accessory to gardeners of all abilities. It has been designed to increase the amount of air around the root zone in plant pots.

If you are lucky enough to have power in your greenhouse or tunnel this little addition can increase yields by up to 130%. It is very simple to use once assembled, which will take less than 30 seconds. The AirDome is placed at the bottom of the pot, covered with compost and then connected to an air pump. Oxygen is then supplied directly to the plants’ root zone, improving crop development and ensuring maximum growth.

It is very easy to use. The AirDome is placed at the bottom of the pot, covered with the substrate of choice and then connected to an air pump.

To maximise the effectiveness of the AirDome use a fluffy mix  such as a mixture of 50% good Coco Peat and 50% Perlite.

Provide the plants with additional oxygen to boost growth significantly and increase yields.

To increase levels  of oxygen for smaller plant at times when the medium seems to stay wet.

With all growing conditions  being correct the Air Dome has been proven to increase yields by up to 130%.

The AirDome should only be switched on during the daylight periods. Always ensure that warm air is blown in and around the root zone. Temperatures between 18 and 22 degrees are ideal. Temperature below and above 5 degrees and 30 degrees will potentially damage the roots.

Raise your air pump higher than the AirDome(s) to prevent water from siphoning back when the pump is off or use a non-return valve.

Use a timer to turn the pump on and off when the air temperature is warm and before it gets too cool.

Many AirDomes can be linked together using 5mm connections, or for larger AirDome setups, use 12mm pipe as the supply line, reducing the pipe at each AirDome point with the AutoPot 12mm to 5mm Cross Connectors.

IE60730 Safety Standard

Bi Grow Mix is a high quality substrate. Its composition is well balanced for optimum development of a wide variety of plants. Bi Grow Mix is a mix of many types of high quality peat and coco fibres.

An important feature of Bi Grow Mix is its air/water ratio. The gaps present in Bi Grow Mix may be filled with water and air. Thanks to the coco fibres, gaps filled with air take in a higher volume, which means more oxygen benefits for the plant. Bi Grow Mix does not retract and easily absorbs water. Nutrients are gradually released and are thus constantly available for the plant. The presence of coco fibres facilitates root development.

Bi Grow Mix is pre-fertilised you don’t need to add any nutrients during the first weeks of the cultivation, depending on how many plants and pot size. After this starting period Atami advises to add liquid fertiliser to the nutrient water for optimal results.

Bi Grow Mix contains 40% coco fiber, 10% white peat and 50% black peat. The coco ensures an open structure so the roots can grow optimally which is especially important for the uptake of nutrients for a stronger and more resilient plant.

• Pre-fertilised
• Open structure
• No need to add any nutrients during the first weeks

ATAMI Bloombastic

Bloombastic is a high-quality cocktail made of mineral and organic additives with a vegetable origin that is suitable for the last flowering and ripening phase (4-6 weeks) of the plant. Bloombastic increases the sugar content of your crop and therefore the weight and the smell. By means of an explosion of sugar and flower production Bloombastic provides thick, dense, sweet-smelling flowers.

Compared with other liquid flowering products, Bloombastic contains over 50% more bio-minerals (phosphorus and potassium) for which absolutely no ballast substances have been used (sodium and chlorine). Bloombastic also has an enzymatic influence in several areas, and therefore has a stress-preventing and recovering influence on the plant.

The combination of these features allows Bloombastic to replace various other products. Combining Bloombastic with (another) PK nutrient is not only unnecessary , but potentially risky, due to the risk of over fertilizing. Using Bloombastic together with e.g. B’cuzz Bloom Stimulator is a great way for growers further to exaggerate the flowering-phase stimulating effect. You can perfectly combine it with basic nutrients as well. It’s important to pay attention to the EC value of your nutrient solution.

• Sweet-smelling flowers
• Easy to use
• Highly concentrated

Cocos Substrate is a high quality compost comprised of coco fibres extracted from the mesocarp of the coconut. It is a 100% natural product and designed so that it can be used immediately.

The Cocos Substrate contains a basic plant fertiliser. Because of the structure of coco, it can store nutrients that are continually available for the plant.

Cocos Substrate is produced under controlled conditions, which is an assurance of quality and offers the ability to use it over and over again after each growing cycle. It can absorb plenty of water in a short period of time and can also deliver water rapidly and abundantly.

The roots also have plenty of available oxygen, which keeps them active. Despite the absence of residual water, there is always enough humidity for the plant.

• Airy structure
• High quality coco
• Optimal root development

High Porosity Cocos (HPC) combines the properties of ATAMI’s Cocos Substrate with perlite for increased substrate airiness. The coco of Atami is known to be very clean and low in detrimental salts, while also containing a balanced fertilisations. To achieve this, the coco is ripened, washed, buffered and lightly fertilised.

Perlite is volcanic rock that has been formed during volcanic eruptions. It is treated with a high temperature to make it expand. You can compare it to popcorn. When we heat a corn grain, it pops into an airy treat. The same can happen to perlite, which pops into a porous structure of about twenty times its original size. By mixing this perlite through your substrate, the airiness of your substrate is greatly increased.

Due to the addition of perlite to the coco, the product reaches an air-percentage of about 30%. The availability of air is essential for the development of roots. Plants require oxygen to ‘burn’ sugars and use them up for their energy. Through the use of this energy, the root system expands and develops further.

• Airy structure
• Great water management
• Optimal root development

Hydro Rokz are made of pure and salt-free baked clay. They contain a very low concentration of elements and this makes them ideal as a substrate for hydroculture. The quality of the clay pebbles is largely determined by the pH value.

Clay pebbles are used for various growing methods. Sometimes they are placed at the bottom of the flowerpot when growing on a soil substrate like soil. The Hydro Rokz are also used as an additional drainage.

Hydro Rokz can be mixed with the substrate to make the growing medium airier, so the roots can also branch off better. Another method that is widely used, is growing the plants directly on Hydro Rokz. This is often done in combination with an oxygen pump. This way the roots at the bottom of the pot are constantly immersed in water with liquid fertilisers mixed in, and the oxygen pump provides enough oxygen for the roots.

Growing hydroponically with Hydro Rokz is very successful, because the clay pebbles and the flowing water nutrient solution are a golden duo when it comes to a lavish supply of oxygen. The plants both get oxygen from the top and from below. The flowing water contains many times more oxygen than ordinary still water.

• Easy to use

• Airy structure

• Strong, healthy roots

Cultivation on a coco substrate and hydroponic growing are popular cultivation methods. Every grower has his own preference and every substrate has its own characteristics! Why wouldn’t you combine best of both worlds?!

With this in mind Atami has developed Hydro Rokz Cocos 60-40!

The substrate is a well-balanced blend of clay pebbles and top quality coco peat.

Hydro Rokz Cocos 60-40 offers many benefits of growing hydroponically. The clay pebbles provide excellent drainage as they retain nearly no water!
This decreases the risk of over-watering. When the water is drained, fresh air enters the root zone and gives this substrate a high air ratio, for optimal root development!

Adding coco increases the water retention of the substrate. Coco offers a buffer between watering times, as makes sure moisture levels near the roots stay stable. And, it holds on to some nutrients as well!
