AutoPot in New Caledonia continues to go from strength to strength. A local farmer who is one of the largest tomato producers in the country (approximately 4 hectares of greenhouses) recently purchased AutoPot kits for testing. For the first tests, he temporarily placed a 200 litre tank, at about 50cm high with one row of easy2grow extensions and a row of 1Pot modules, each line is approximately 25 meters long. As a professional farmer, he uses his own hydro fertilisers and bags of coco fibre instead of the pots. As you can see from the photographs there is 1 tomato plant per 8.5 litre pot and 2 per 15 litre 1pot module.
He has been extremely pleased with the results in comparison to his standard growing method. It is great to see a new project in the region and that AutoPot is reaching further and further around the world.
