AutoPot in New Caledonia have been busy recently! Nelson, Sandy and their team are currently developing a customer gallery to showcase AutoPot users growing areas…as a teaser please take a look at this innovative homemade greenhouse.
They built the system using 1/3 perlite, 2/3 potting mix as a medium and a bed of clay pebbles in the bottom. They are growing Tomatoes, salad, peppers, basil and parsley, which as you can see are doing extremely well!
Sandy and his team also exhibited at “Le Salon du jardinage” (agriculture, garden and outdoor furniture show), this is an annual event since 1997 in Noumea. It took place over four days, showing 70 professional exhibition stands and drew up to 8000 visitors. This was the first time AutoPot was displayed in front of a large public in New Caledonia, with tomatoes, pepper, eggplant, chilli, salad and green onions on display within the systems to show people just how easy and successful the AutoPot technology is. The easy2grow system was met with huge success, so much so the stand was almost entirely out of stock at the end of the show. Local TV also made a small report of the AutoPot display, which then showed in the evening local news. Since the trade show there has been very good feedback from New Caledonia residents, with many existing customers already re-ordering easy2grow
extension kits to expand their systems as a result of the show.
