ALIEN EasyFeed System

Cut running costs and slash time spent feeding plants - grab an ALIEN EasyFeed System.

They’re gravity-fed - like AutoPots - only you get to time feeds using a battery-powered EasyFeed Timer. 

• Gravity Fed (no water pump)
• Timed feeds (battery powered)
• EasyFeed Timer
• Fabric pots to ‘air prune’ roots
• No blockages - 16mm (external) / 13mm (internal) feed pipe

Feed reaches pot via gravity - no air pump, water pump or electrical outlet is needed. So you can use an ALIEN EasyFeed System indoors, outdoors - wherever there’s space.

To prevent clogging, 16mm feed pipe (external) is used instead of standard 4mm pipe. This keeps feed flowing freely and prevents clogging.

To enhance rooting, ‘breathable’ fabric pots are used. As roots grow outwards towards the edge of pots, they eventually hit air, which stops forward growth, forcing roots to grow secondary and tertiary roots.

Overall you get a denser root network with more root tips for nutrient and water uptake. 

Other gravity-fed systems are topped up as soon as nutrient depletes.

In this system, you time your feeds to get guaranteed, concise dry spells of up to 1 week.

Dry spells like this combat fungus gnats and Pythium, which thrive in constantly wet rootzones. You also re-oxygenate your rootzone with every dry period. Like with flood & drain, refilling empty trays traps oxygen. An oxygen-rich rootzone helps fight pathogens, increase uptake & prevent nasty anaerobic pockets forming.

You can choose to feed hourly, daily, every 2 days, every 3 days or weekly. Your timer is battery-powered so you get tight control of your feeding schedule with no power supply needed.

You can fill each pot a different amount - just adjust the float valve in each tray to set your fill level. You can easily add extra pots as you scale up your grow. Pipe also comes uncut so you can choose any configuration you want.
