🌱 IWS Dripper Systems – 6, 12, 24, 36 & 48 Pot — Guide & Product Information

💧 Professional Automated Drip Feed System

The IWS Dripper System is a complete automated irrigation system designed to deliver water and nutrients directly to plants using precision dripper technology. Based on the successful IWS system format, this version uses drippers as the main method of nutrient delivery, making it ideal for growers who want accurate feeding, strong system control and consistent plant performance across multiple pots.

The included IWS minute timer is designed to work with the larger pumps used in dripper technology, while the control bucket helps manage waste nutrient removal to a desired location away from the growing area.
