Description
Automated Drip Feeding for Consistent Watering Across the Room
The Top Spin Dripper Kit 16mm (1/2″) is a low-pressure drip irrigation system that automates feeding across a hydroponics or indoor setup. Instead of hand watering pot by pot, it delivers nutrient solution through pressure-regulated drippers straight to each plant, keeping moisture and feed even across the whole grow room and cutting daily labour.
What's Included
- Maxijet MJ1000 pump (6-12 plant setups) or Hailea HX8820 pump - 1,950 L/h (12-48 plant setups)
- TopSpin dripper manifold with 16mm barbed elbow
- 16mm flexi supply tube
- 16mm barbed elbow and tee fittings
- 16mm barbed non-return valve
- 16mm inline filter
- Anti-siphon valve
Key Benefits
- Automated feeding removes daily hand watering in busy rooms
- Pressure-regulated drippers distribute nutrient evenly to every plant
- Little-and-often delivery stabilises the root zone for stronger roots and better uptake
- Works with coco, soil, clay pebbles and rockwool
- Expandable layout to suit different tent and room sizes
- One reservoir feeds many plants for a simple, scalable system
Fixing Uneven Hand Watering and Missed Feeds
Hand watering several plants leads to uneven moisture, missed cycles and, over time, slow growth and weak roots from patchy nutrient uptake. The Top Spin system supplies a steady, controlled feed to each plant, keeping the root zone stable through veg and bloom while freeing you from the watering can.
How to Use
- Fill the reservoir with correctly mixed nutrient solution.
- Place the pump inside and connect the 16mm supply tube.
- Fit the inline filter, non-return valve and anti-siphon valve into the feed line.
- Connect the Top Spin manifolds and run dripper lines to each plant.
- Position one or two drippers around the base of each plant for even watering.
Feeding guidance:
- Soil or coco: feed to around 30% runoff and discard the excess (run-to-waste recommended).
- Clay pebbles: run a recirculating system with drippers on through the full light cycle, plus once for around 15 minutes during the dark cycle.
- Reservoir: top up regularly with diluted solution and replace the full solution weekly.
