Ebb and flow grow table 200x150x5cm, 3-sided, end piece
3-sided end piece
Ebb and flow tray 200x150x5cm, side with drain recess 200cm
- This ebb and flow tray has three closed sides and one open side (200cm end piece).
An ebb and flow system is a closed system in which water, often containing fertiliser, is pumped onto the individual tables, where the crops start to absorb the water and added fertilisers. After a set time the tables are drained and the remaining water flows back into a central tank. Here, clean water and fertiliser can be added as needed to bring the mix back to the desired composition before the next irrigation.
The unique design of the drainage channels minimises the "edge effect", which leads to drier plants due to the higher rate of evaporation near the table edges. This effect is offset by ensuring a 2 mm higher water level. The result is uniform plants.
Benefits
- No waste of water or fertiliser
- Bottom-watering principle
- Automatic, precise mixing of water and fertiliser possible
- Very precise control of irrigation times possible
- No joints
- No additional gluing work
- No leaks
- Very smooth surfaces and drainage channels
- Quick and easy assembly
Raw materials and raw sheets
The raw sheets are produced on an extrusion line, 3-layer co-extruded from 100% UV-stabilised, chemical-resistant HIPS (high-impact polystyrene) of the very highest quality.
