Platinium Hydroponics - Nutients - Soil - Instruments
Platinium is a notable brand and one of the most successful in the field of hydroponics. Whether it is fertilizers, growing systems, substrates or accessories, Platinium strives to offer quality products while remaining affordable for even the most modest growers. We can therefore clear four sub-brands at Platinium Platinium Hydroponics, Platinium Nutrients, Platinium Soil and Platinium instruments.
What is Platinium Hydroponics?
Platinium Hydroponics is the branch specialising in hydroponic growing systems. It is a Franco-Quebec alliance that has enabled the development of a range of innovative systems of a quality unmatched on the market. Manufactured in 100% food grade ABS, these systems allow total modularity, hence the name of this range: modular.
The Modular range is composed of both hydroponic and aeroponic systems. It will be possible to switch from one to the other with ease! Indeed the assembly of the systems of the Modular range is done in less than 10 min and this whatever the size of the system. These growing systems are available in 40x40cm, 60x60cm, 40x90cm, 80x80cm, 60x110cm, 100x100cm, 120x120cm and 200x100cm, which corresponds to the standard sizes of most growing chambers.
What are the system types for the modular range?
As mentioned above, the range Platinium Hydroponics Modular will allow you to switch from one growing method to another with ease. However, each range must be well defined. ( For more information on the different types of growing systems, go to the page dedicated to hydroponics. )
Ebb & Flow: Tide table. This system is designed so that the water flows more easily, thus avoiding the development of mould or fungus due to stagnant water
Hydro-Stone: NFT. This system makes it possible to cultivate in rock wool or in pots without distinction
Hydro-Star: Drop by drop. The HydroStar is a drip hydroponic system that allows you to grow with clay balls. Each pot can be served individually, allowing you to water each plant according to its needs
Aero-Star : Aeropony. Same principle as for the hydro-star except that these systems have an aero plate for each pot.
Hydro-Pro: Drop by drop. The Hydro Pro is a drip hydroponic system that allows you to grow with clay balls. The pots are larger than those of the hydrostar
Aero-Pro: Aeroponics. Same principle as for the hydro-pro except that these systems have an aero plate for each pot. These plates allow you to grow from 1 to 4 plants per pot depending on the model.
Aero-top: Aeroponics. It is composed of a tray that acts as a root chamber with the aero-top. This ensures perfect oxygenation and optimal growth.
Hydro-Star Big Pot: Drop by drop. Same characteristic as the hydro-star with the notable difference that the pots are larger (18L or 25L).
