Christmas Gifts for Your Green-Fingered Loved Ones

Irrigatia’s unique solar powered irrigation system takes the hard work out of watering and uses up to 90% less water than a hose or sprinkler. Designed for use in greenhouses and outside, the Irrigatia system naturally delivers the most appropriate liquid needs when plants most need it – when the sun is shining.

Unlike electronic timer systems that deliver water at a set time, regardless of the weather, this solar powered package automatically judges their needs and waters every three hours. The longer the daylight hours and the greater the light intensity in a day the more the system waters. The volume of water can also be manually adjusted to suit individual watering needs.

The water comes direct from a nearby water butt and, if this is not available, a reservoir can be purchased. Liquid feed can also be added to the watering process.

The Irrigatia system is ideal for use in glasshouses, vegetable gardens and allotments, for house plants, containers, hanging baskets, pots or plants and shrubs planted in the open garden.

All that is needed is an adjacent water supply and somewhere to hang the solar panel and control box to capture maximum sunlight which it stores in rechargeable batteries.
