Mona Plant
Systems
These plastic tanks hold water near to the root ball and
slow down the process of evaporation. Thus reducing
maintenance costs and plant loss. MPS can be utilised in
both interior and exterior plant displays.
The circular
tanks are aimed at single specimen displays usually in
round
planters. The rectangular tanks are for troughs
and can be linked for larger display beds.
All the
tanks work on the principal of capillary action and
prevent over watering from the top. They have an
indicating float and allow oxygen to reach the roots.
Pictured right is an MT 24 (24 lt tank) buried just
below the ivy root system to provide moisture during the
dry season.
This
photo shows two Mona Tank 7's linked with flexible
hose and one down pipe, providing a combined water
reservoir of 14 litres.
The down
pipe can be cut down to suite the trough height,
there is an indicating float in the pipe.
Also note
the 'hydroleca' used as a drainage medium, this
needs to be at least 75mm.
Compost
is put into the risers which draws the water up by
capillary action. There are small holes in the other
round stoppers allowing air to circulate the roots.
