Growtubes (pack of 2)

Growtubes (pack of 2) Code: XGV005

£17.95 inc. p&p 17.9500 In Stock New

Growtube is a complete grow bag watering system for all types of plantings including strawberries, tomatoes, salad crops, melons and cucumbers. A totally new concept in growbag watering, Growtube utilises discarded plastic drinks bottles and can be fitted in seconds without disturbing the plants or the soil.


Growtube is the most effective and simplest way to deliver water and fertiliser to your plants - at root level. The watering tube sits on top of the bag and delivers water gently and thoroughly at root level through a series of watering spikes. Growtube eliminates the need for cutting any holes for watering, retaining humidity and temperature within the grow bag - the perfect environment for stronger roots and stronger, healthier plants.

 

Please note: Growbags are not included.

 

Regular watering is essential for crops grown in containers, hanging baskets and grow bags. It is important to channel water direct to the roots of thirsty plants and we offer various solutions that will take care of this.  Weather responsive SMART drip irrigation systems can be installed to deliver water directly to plants when they most need it. Applied slowly, water gradually soaks to the roots, rather than running off or evaporating. It will save you time and reduce the amount of water that's wasted.

(image for) Rootex Root Control Bag (95 Litre)
£28.95 inc. p&pRootex Root Control Bag (95 Litre)A Rootex Bag will produce a tree with more fibrous roots, reduced vigour and will promote early fruiting. Rootex is a special patented copper coated fabric. When the root tip comes into contact with the copper it stops growing, the apical dominance is interrupted and new feeder (fibrous) roots develop further back towards the tree. This prevents roots from circling and enables better absorption of water and nutrients. Rootex is permeable, allowing water and nutrients to pass through it. A tree grown in a Rootex Bag can be transplanted to another site without damage to the root system even 10 years after it was originally planted. These large bags are ideal for large trees such as walnuts, chestnuts and mulberries. Width 45cm x length 45cm x depth 45cm. Capacity: 95 litres.Buy Now
