The AQUAbox Spyder offers a revolutionary self-watering solution for the grow-your-own enthusiasts. No mains, water supply, pumps or timers are required. Simply connect to a reservoir of any size for hassle-free watering for up to 14 days (depending on reservoir size). Simply connect to an existing water barrel to automatically distribute water under the soil, across an area of up to 13sq ft. With the AQUAvalve5 at its core, the Spyder draws on the water supply (water barrel or reservoir) as required by the plants, ensuring an efficient use of water. Once connected to the water supply the valve will control the flow of water to the plants, by simple gravity pressure from a tank or water butt, no pumps, mains water pressure, electricity or timers are required. The roots of the plants instinctively head toward the water source, attaching themselves to the capillary wicks below the soil level. The capillary wicks should be changed every growing season.
