What is an Auto pot /Gravity fed system?
Autopot is a system that relies on a “smartvalveTM”. This valve acts like a float valve in that it only allows a set level of nutrient into the bottom of the container. The creators of this system describe it a as the “plant driven watering system”. The medium commonly used is perlite because of its capillary action (draws nutrient/water up through the medium). The system has been proven both in a hobby garden as well as in a commercial venture.
