The Ebb & Flood is similar to the Flo Gro but it floods from the bottom instead of the top which makes it even more efficient than the Flo Gro at supplying oxygen to the roots.
The Ebb & Flood can either be filled with clay pebbles – acting as a large pot, or can be filled with pots containing any growing medium. This bottom-flooding growing system with a timer produces massive yields thanks to the way it provides roots with superb access to oxygen.
How the Ebb and Flood hydroponic system works
At the set times solution rises up from the reservoir into the media and pushes out stale air, allowing the roots take up whatever nutrients and water they need.
Every Ebb & Flood kit now includes our unique Express Drain. When the flood pump switches off the Express Drain creates a powerful vacuum which pulls water back into the reservoir with a rush of fresh oxygen rich air. This fresh oxygen-rich air nourishes the roots leading to more productive growth and bigger yields.
The top tray of the Ebb & Flood has a new design so water runs to the drainage point more quickly where the Express Drain can do its work.
Clay pebbles hold very little moisture, so between feeds roots have excellent access to oxygen, you must increase feed timings as the plants grow to ensure they receive enough water.
Perfect for growers who want to:
- Optimise root access to oxygen
- Finely tune feeds
- Decide own plant spacing
- Make the most of available space with a self-contained system
- Grow in an area with limited height – these grow systems are a maximum of 36cm tall.
