What is a IWS ?
Specifically, an Intelligent Watering Systems - Flood & Drain is a hydro system with a flexitank tank containing water. This is distributed in all pots, containing the plants and laid on bases. This works on the tide table principle: irrigation is done by gravity which distributes the water and floods the bottom of each of the pots.
This hybrid tide table requires only one pump to fill and drain the control bucket positioned next to the Flexitank tank. The power of the pump is controlled in the tank and bucket by two magnetic float valves.
In order to avoid a possible complete flooding of the pots, these floats also allow to manage the water level. By the phenomenon of ebb and flow (programmable), the water is evacuated through the culture medium. In this way, it efficiently sends out the nutrients, while cleaning the roots from the stale air and renewing it with fresh oxygen.
