plant centered subsurface irrigation
Description
- Resistant strips with fine pores are installed near the roots and retain water under very low pressure, acting as an underground water source.
- The plant roots send signals to the soil when they need water.
- The smart micro-pores of GROWSTREAM respond to these signals and release water from the tubing.
- The rate of water release from the strip matches the plant’s absorption rate.
- Once the plant has absorbed the amount of water it needs, the release of water from the strip’s micro-pores stops.
- It is the first and only nature-based irrigation technology in the world.
