Irrigatia weather responsive SMART irrigation controllers uniquely use solar power to detect the weather and alter watering according to the conditions and the season – providing plants with the precise irrigation they need to help them thrive.
They are easy to install and set up, and once in, they will water automatically with minimal supervision – ideal for small to medium gardens – and can be used for pots, raised beds,hanging baskets, vegetables and greenhouses.
Unlike conventional timer systems, by watering little and often, the soil stays moist and water does not run off, saving you water. No mains, wires, or hoses needed nor heavy watering cans to lug water around the garden.
The SOL-C24 connects to the following Irrigatia Kits: Drippers: Use for pots, baskets and individual plants. Seephose: Ideal for short runs in a mixed dripper / seephose environment, germinating seedlings, watering plant troughs and small beds. Micro-porous Hose: for longer runs with even distribution along the hose.
