Medusa Complete Drip and Drain System
For those people who are sick of seeing your plants sitting in runoff; sponging, syringing or tipping it out is long AF. Plants don’t like sitting in their own juices either as it starves them of oxygen, which makes them weaker and more prone to diseases which will reduce your yield.
Every system comes with:
- Choice of baseline trays
- Small – 35 x 37cm
- Medium – 39 x 43cm
- Large – 49 x 53cm
- Optional Flexi Tank
- Two x black 2lph drippers per pot
- IWS Autodrain Brain pump for the waste (or back to the tank)
- Very awesome digital Time-R to schedule the feed times
- All required white pipework and fittings to connect the Medusa trays
- All required drippers, manifolds and white pipework
- Aquaking pump to power the drippers
FYI, draining your runoff to waste is king; your plants get fresh nutes each time as opposed to drinking back their own juices each time…Baseline trays do away with all of that – all the runoff falls down a hole in the tray and into the pipework, which either drains straight into a drain (must be lower than the trays), or into a “brain” bucket which pumps the runoff either into a drain (which can then be anywhere as it is physically being pumped as opposed to using gravity), or pumps back into your reservoir.
