Product Information

The Quadgrow self watering planter was the first serious reservoir system on the market for the hobby grower in the UK. Go here for more details of The Quadgrow Planter The Self Watering Grow Pot Tower This is avoided with the Oasesbox because water and nutrients are available 24/7. Features and Benefits I’ve used it for several seasons and can recommend it as a reliable way to grow tomatoes – it is one of the best self watering planters on the market.

Like the Oasesbox, it runs on the wet side and is perfect for watering in hot conditons. The Quadgrow runs on the dry side with only capillary matting to absorb moisture into the roots, however, when plants are more developed they send their roots down into the reservoir. Summing Up I’ve used the Autopot for many seasons and it is reliable as long as all your pipes and valves are kept clean. There is no need for capillary matting which can struggle to take up enough water on a very hot day.The Quadgrow Planter is among the best self watering planter for tomatoes and has been around for a few seasons. The clever design ensures that soil does not end up in the reservoir but roots are able to grow out of the bottom of the cone and into the reservoir.

I think that the Oasesbox is probably a little better than the Quadgrow for flexibility and ease of use – but best with a grow bag on top of three boxes. It is a well made item and should last for many seasons if treated with care – put it in the shed during the winter. It can be a bit fiddly to set up but the results are worth the extra care needed to get it up and running. There are many containers available that use an internal reservoir – from hanging baskets to window box planters.
