The ALIEN RDWC PRO SILVER SERIES is a high-performance hydroponic system designed for serious growers, offering key features that optimise plant growth and nutrient uptake. Here’s a breakdown of the system’s specifications and features:
Key Benefits:
- Heat Reflective Silver Polymer: Helps manage temperature and reflect heat, providing an ideal environment for plants.
- Super Oxygenated: The system ensures oxygenated nutrient flow to support healthy root development.
- Reduced Veg Time: Helps accelerate the vegetative growth stage, allowing plants to reach maturity more quickly.
- Uniform pH & EC: Ensures that pH and electrical conductivity are stable, providing plants with a consistent nutrient environment.
- Plug in and Grow: Designed for ease of use, this system is user-friendly and quick to set up.
- Minimal Medium: Uses fewer components, simplifying maintenance and cleaning.
Key Features:
- Dual-Flow™ Fittings: These fittings ensure even nutrient and oxygen distribution, promoting healthy plant growth.
- 50mm Silver Pipe: main water distribution pipe, providing durable and efficient flow.
- A.I.R™ Rings: These rings help oxygenate the roots, improving root health and nutrient uptake.
- Heavy Duty Pots: Strong and durable pots to hold your plants securely and prevent breakage.
- Elevated Airlines: Keeps the airline above the water level to prevent clogging and ensures consistent air flow.
- Square Net Pots: Designed for rockwool cubes, allowing for easy rotation while providing excellent root support.
- Inline Valve & Filter: Controls water flow and filters out any impurities, ensuring clean and efficient nutrient delivery.
- Chiller Ready: Compatible with water chillers to maintain optimal water temperature for plant health.
Parts Included:
- Pots, Lids, Net Pots, Pot Clips: Essential components for holding and supporting your plants.
- Dual-Flow™ Fittings, Nuts, Collars, Washers: For secure and stable system assembly.
- Valve & Filter: For maintaining water quality and flow.
- Spanner, Pipe Cutters: Tools for system assembly and maintenance.
- Instructions: Step-by-step guide to setting up the system.
Additional items:
- A.I.R™ Rings (to oxygenate the root zone)
- 6mm Air-line, Blue 6mm tees (for connecting air lines and creating the air supply system)
- Pipes (6mm blue, 16mm silver, 19mm blue, 50mm silver) supplied in 1-meter lengths to connect different parts of the system.
System Specifications:
- Minimum Footprint: 1.5m (Length) x 1.1m (Width), with pots placed closely together.
- Maximum Footprint: 1.7m (Length) x 1.55m (Width), with plant spacing of 60cm between each plant.
- System Volume: 150L, which allows for a larger growing space and more plants.
- Water Tank: Recommended 100L for optimal water volume and nutrient capacity.
- Air Requirement: 90L/min (higher air requirement due to larger system size).
- Water Chiller: Recommended 300L, to keep water temperature within the optimal range for plant growth.
- Plant Centres: 50cm between plants, providing ample space for each to grow.
- Veg Time: 7-10 days, for quick development during the vegetative phase.
Water Pump:
- Model: JET-STREAM™ SILENT 1.0
- Maximum Flow: 950 L/hr
- Power: 16W (energy-efficient while providing powerful circulation)
Summary:
This hydroponic system is designed for growers who want to maximise their yield and minimise the effort involved in maintaining a consistent, healthy environment for their plants. The increased system volume (150L) and the higher air requirement (90L/min) suggest that it is designed for larger-scale or more intensive cultivation, capable of supporting more plants.
The features such as Dual-Flow™ fittings, A.I.R™ Rings, and Chiller Ready are particularly advantageous for those looking for precision in managing the nutrient flow, root health, and water temperature, all of which are crucial for optimal plant growth.
