The Oxfordshire Chilli Farm (Plantasia) have been growing capsicums using AutoPot Watering Systems for 10 years.
AutoPot offer growing solutions to each variety under cultivation. For large ‘super-hot’ varieties the XL System provides ideal size and adjustability. Habanero and Scotch Bonnets are served by the 1Pot System.
Sweet peppers are grown using the high-wire method in easy2grow with 15L pots instead of the 8.5L as this suits these capsicums better. For further details of Plantasia’s current chilli selection, nutrient and substrate combinations and greenhouse layouts visit www.plantasia.co.uk
A word from Plantasia:
“With only a couple of staff it’s a godsend to have the AutoPot systems to water and feed our 10,000 sq ft greenhouses. Cultivating an ever-changing range of plants is simple thanks to the responsiveness of AutoPot.
The AutoPot system allows plants to draw exactly what they need, when they need it. So feeding is always perfectly in sync with each plant, regardless of type – we call this Plant Driven watering.
There’s zero wastage on water and fertilizer and it’s 100% power-free, meaning we can afford to experiment and grow to our heart’s content.”
Benjamin Biggs, owner of Plantasia, on why AutoPot Watering Systems are his irrigation system of choice…
GODSEND – PERFECTLY IN SYNC – ZERO WASTAGE
