Plants giving you a hard time? Don't get blue, get Blumat!...seriously though, stop letting your plants go to the great garden in the sky
I love the blumat systems. They make life so much easier.
Right?! They are a lifesaver!
Great video guys keep up the awesome work
Like always great video
This is so helpful, thank you ✨
Glad to help!
The way you showed the water containers at different heights relative to the plant answered my question! Probably gonna get these for a 5 week out of town job training.
awesome! glad I could help!
Me too!! I had the water container up at a sharp slope so it was watering my moss pole a little too fast. I rearranged and moved the water jar down, and now it's working great! My plant says thank you! 🎉
Did it work well for such a long duration? I am looking to do the same.
I left for 3 months and most if not all of the 39 Blumats I had inserted in my 29 plants (I used 2 on a couple of my large plants) and I think all but one plant survived. I think that one the hose on the Blumat might have been clogged or something. I'm getting ready to go on another 3 month trip and setting them all up again. (I came here to see if anyone answered a Q that I had about, can or should I top off (aka water) my plants manually after I add the carrot to the soil or will that be an excess water amount and the syphoning won't ever start up) (but no one has confronted that issue and saw your comment so I thought I'd answer your question. I used collapsible 5 Gallon water jugs I got on Amazon as my reservoir. Not the prettiest solution but they lasted! @@horshodg
Am keen to try this out, only concern is overwatering and root rot, where can I read customer reviews ? Looks like a good way to manage watering a few, I have 134 and counting indoor plants, this just might lighten my load.
haha that is quite a garden paradise! Feel free to give us a call at (716) 217-0353 or email us at help@happyhydro.com and we can figure out what's going to work best for you!
@2:18 "or if you have no idea what you're doing." LMAO! Those newbie stages can be rough.
Haha for real!
Will top dressing require hand watering to push the nutrients down to root level? Or will moisture doled out by blumat be adequate for the feeding times.
Hey! From what I understand, the moisture provided from the blumat system would be enough to percolate the nutrients to the roots. Or you can always add your nutrients to the water reservoir and apply nutrients that way. If you add the nutrients directly to the reservoir, it is recommended to start with 25%-50% less than recommend amount of nutrients because there is virtually no run off with blumat system. Hope that helps!
Hoping this method of removing air bubbles fixes my problems with these things... they either work or they don't when I use them.
Hopefully this helps you out Wade!
Would it be possible to extend the hose with a longer one? I am wondering if it would be possible to use it outdoor maybe 10 feet away from the water tank
Yes, you can definitely use a longer hose if you want. Just grab yourself some 3mm hose and a couple of 3mm unions to extend the hose. If the Blumat is over-watering your plant, you can place the reservoir lower (relative to the Blumat). The reservoir can be as far as 12″ below the Blumat while still watering your plant, albeit slowly.
If the Blumat is under-watering your plant, you can raise the reservoir relative to the Blumat. The higher the reservoir, the faster the flow rate.
@@HappyHydro I am in the desert where it gets around 110 degrees so maybe higher flow with the hoses buried in the ground might be best because they would be cooking out in the sun.
Can you use water soluble nutes in the classic? Its porous enough or not? I am talking water soluble at 1/4 strength. Maybe with a smaller resevoir so its never sitting long?
Hey! Sorry for the delay but yes you can use water-soluble nutrients. Also, a good idea to do 1/4 strength. You will also want to keep some drip clean on hand to be able to flush out any debris.
Go birds!!! Josh Allen is not the guy to take y'all to the chip.
Hey, thanks for reaching out! It seems like you may need more help than I can provide. I do recommend taking a nap and maybe a snack because you are talking crazy right now lol I mean Hurts isn't bad but he's no JA17!
i have bought the "maze: version 2 sets for 2 drippers, i keep blowing off the tiny dripper line even at super low pressure :(
hey there, send me an email at help@happyhydro.com and I'll see what I can do to help!
What amount of water does is despnse in 1 day?
Check out the 1:45 minute mark!
Do you manually water the plant beforehand?
Yea, you are going to want to establish the moisture level you want in the soil first
Can use them in 12.5L pot
Yea absolutely!
Just got Blumat original. I wanted to know how the water actually comes out? I understand how to use it, but not how it actually works.
In the Blumat Classic, the water comes from the semipermeable clay carrot
in fact if you do it the way he does it you will end up with the pipe and the carrot full of water .when the carrot is stuck into the ground as it is made of a porous clay the water will flow from the carrot to the soil creating thus a depression that as a result makes the water flow from the bowl to the carrot through the pipe .hope it’s clear .it is very important to see the bubbles in the bowl prior to placing the carrot into the ground .
how much can the classic release? in an hour?
If the reservoir and the plant are at the same level. Then it would be 75ml/24h or 125ml/24h (XL) ...Raising the reservoir will allow more water to the plant while lowering the reservoir would result in less water. Hope that helps!
JA17 FTW. Go Bills
Heck yea my dude!!
Can I run my nutrients through it?
I would say generally no. If you were to get some type of build up in there it would be really tough to find. I talked to the people at Blumat and they mentioned top dressing would work best and that there is enough moisture to percolate the nutrients down to the roots. Hope that helps!
@@HappyHydro any recommendations on top dressing, or dry nutrients that I could use with blumat classic?
@@adamson4261 I would recommend giving Earth Dust a try
Go bills
Go Bills!
