What Is a Blumat Watering System?Updated 2 months ago
Blumat irrigation systems water plants based on soil moisture tension rather than timers.
When soil dries, tension increases and the ceramic sensor opens a small valve that releases water.
As the soil becomes wet again the tension drops and the valve closes.
This allows the system to respond automatically to plant demand and environmental changes without electricity or programming.
Step by Step Instructions:
1. Connect a water source.
2. Run supply tubing to the grow area.
3. Install the Blumat sensor in evenly moist soil.
4. Attach a distribution method such as drippers or BluSoak.
5. Allow the sensor to open and close based on soil moisture.
