Genuine AutoPots® Are Here
Nothing Short Of An Engineering Marvel
Introducing the AutoPot
These brilliantly designed container gardens have the 'smarts' to automatically
water and feed your plants on demand; without expensive pumps, complicated timers, or the cost electricity.
Self Watering and Feeding
These gardens revolve around the patented AutoPot tray and AQUAvalve
combination so you'll never have to hand water or manually fertilize your
plants again. Each AutoPot we sell kit comes with a generously-sized reservoir
that keeps plants growing for weeks between refills. And, there are no electrical
pumps or timers required!

(2) ten inch pots and a 12x24" tray AutoPot modules may be
purchased seperately to expand your garden or to
build your own. |

Here's How it Works
Each AutoPot module has its own AQUAvalve that automatically waters plants on demand when attached to a reservoir (required). In doing so, AuotPot technology simulate nature's own rainfall cycle with the added benefit of putting the plant in control rather than the weather. Since the AutoPot modules only provide water when necessary, the resulting wet/dry cycle promotes healthy root development
with high levels of oxygen in the root zone.
Grow Almost Anything Anywhere
Since AutoPots are completely portable you can grow a thriving vegetable,
herb, or flower garden on your balcony, deck, or rooftop. You can even grow
indoors next to a sunny window, or under one of our many grow
lights. You can also grow anything from salad greens and kitchen herbs,
to all sorts of flowers and fruits, including tomatos and cucumbers (our favorites),
and even watermelons if you have the space! The AutoPot trays you'll find here will support splants that grow up to 3 or 4 ft tall on their own. Plants that will grow larger should be supported from above with vine lines as in the case of greenhouse cucumbers and tomatoes. Take a look at this outdoor installation that features an automatically filled reservoir and overhead trellis.

Hydroponic, Organic or Soil Use
Our AutoPot kits come complete with everything needed for hydroponic use and utilize an inert and sterile blend of Ultrapeat coconut coir and Aerolite super coarse horticultural perlite as a substrate. You may also choose to grow organically with your favorite soil mix and use plain water or diluted nutrient in your reservoir. The AutoPot gardens are also sold seperately so you can expand your system, or, make your own master garden layout. The AutoPot modules measure exactly 11" wide by 24" long with a height of 10" to the top of the pots. Click for more info.

Greenhouse Proven
The patented AutoPot modules have been successfully used by commercial
greenhouses throughout the world, While
the gravity feed reservoirs work well for systems with up to 20 trays, larger
installations will benefit by using an automatic nutrient doser and pump to
provide the required feedline pressure. If you are interested in such an installation,
please contact us
Easily Expanded
Whether you start with a single or ten module system, expanding your garden
to grow more plants is easy. All you need to do is splice in a few more AutoPot
planters and, voila! Just remember, the more modules you feed, and the bigger
the plants, the more frequently you will have to refill the reservoir. WE've found 1 brick of Ultrapeat Coir and 1 4 Qt. bag of Aerolite will fill about (4) 10" AutoPot trays.
