"CWI" Series Controlled Watering
Insert
We use the Planter Technology CWI™ container
irrigation solution to optimize the health and irrigation
of your plants. CWI™ is Planter Technology's
container irrigation solution designed to be dropped
into most cylindrical and slightly tapered decorative
containers. The CWI uses Planter Technology's proven
vacuum-sensor technology to precisely monitor the soil
moisture level, irrigating the plant only when the
soil starts to dry.
Benefits of "CWI" Container

How the Controlled
Watering System
Balances Moisture and Oxygen Levels
When the soil is dry, the
moisture sensor allows air to pass through
the tube into the reservoir, allowing water
to flow into the container from the bottom.
The water wicks through the soil, irrigating
the plant.
As the soil becomes moist,
the sensor absorbs water. When wet, the sensor
acts as a valve, blocking the flow of air through
the tube. A vacuum is created above the reservoir,
preventing further watering until the soil
begins to dry again.
