Oxypot Deep Water Culture Systems
How it Works
The Oxypot is a deep water culture method of growing, which means the roots are constantly submerged in highly oxygenated water. There’s no timer to manage and you’re never at risk of water logging or the plants drying out. The air pump constantly oxygenates the solution, meaning the roots have 24/7 access to super-oxygenated water and nutrients.
There’s no separate water butt, meaning you can make the most of your floor space. There’s also no risk of contamination through the sharing of nutrient solution.
Oxypot DWC Systems are very simple to use – just keep the root tank topped-up with the nutrient solution. This enables the roots to draw food and oxygen from the highly aerated solution.
Benefits of the system
Minimal growing media required – House & Garden clay pebbles are recommended.
Versatile – Whether you chose a 1 pot or 4 pot Oxypot, these systems give you flexibility to suit any growing space.
Speed – DWC is one of the fastest growing techniques for heavy yields, because DWC enables optimum root access to water, nutrients and air.
Growers Tips
Use the mesh pots for propagating – Once root growth is sufficient and the plant has hardened off, you can then transplant straight into the Oxypot.
Veg lids available – Oxypot XL and Oxypot 4 have veg lids available, this allows you to combine more plants in a smaller space during the veg period.
Reversible lid – Allows younger plants better access to nutrient solution. Use the reversible lid to lower plants with smaller roots deeper into the nutrient solution, then as the roots grow out of the mesh pot the lid can be reversed.
