The Valley Grown Nurseries AutoPot Trial is now established and being streamed live here, the trial was set up at the end of December and is thriving already. AutoPot narrated videos are also available which explain the progression of the trial and time elapsed video shows the development of the pepper plants step by step.
There are 88 pots in total, using 2 rows of 44 AutoPot easy2grow systems, each supplied by a 225 litre waterbutt. Two varieties of peppers are being grown; the Palermo pepper and the California Block red. The trial is being monitored 24 hours a day with live streamed video so you can view the trial at whatever time you wish. Aeroponic technology is also being utilised within the trial to demonstrate how effective the AutoPot systems are even when a medium is not used. Valley Grown Nurseries is one of the largest commercial nurseries in the country, supplying peppers to major supermarket chains including Waitrose; watch this space for great results, tips and advice on how to get the most from one of the market leading growing systems in the UK.
