You fill the Tropf-Blumat, wich's base is a wetness-sensor made of pottery, with water and close it air-tightly. Then you put the sensor completely into water for about one hour. So the pottery conus can take fluidity. After that you stick the Tropf-Blumat into the soil in interspaces of 20 – 25 cm.

Now you cut off adequate pieces of the supply hose and with these you connect the Tropf-Blumat by using the enclosed T-connectors.
The supply hose has to be connected wether with the water tab or a tank.

For connecting the hose with a water tank, we have the tank connector. You can not use the tank connector for connecting the supply hose with the water tab.

Now, when the soil becomes dry, the desiccating pottery sensor creates a certain section power for the physical wetness balance, that releases the watering. As soon as the soil is wet enough, the suction power stops and the watering ends just by itself.

You will find find all information about the Blumat-watering system in the annexed brochure. You can download it here (only available in German).
