The AutoPot Spring Pot System combines our power-free, water efficient, low maintenance, modular systems with high performance fabric pots for the first time. Spring Pots stimulate plant growth by aerating, feeding and guiding the root structure rather than merely containing it.
SpringPot Features
AutoPot XL SpringPot Systems take the immense capacity and versatility of the XL System and incorporate the original, market-leading SpringPot. Amongst the range of fabric pots on the market, SpringPots are exceptional for their use of BPA-free, lead-free material with no off-gassing or leaching. The construction of SpringPots is such that they provide a uniquely rigid base for a fabric pot, which keeps your plants upright.
- Superior Quality Fabric and Design
- Save Money – No more wasting of water, soil, or lost production from using flimsy, inferior fabric pots.
- Increased Crop Value – As yield increases over the same area, crops become more profitable.
- Convenient Cultivation – Super-reinforced handles on all sizes
- BPA Free and Heavy Metal Free – Trust that your consumable harvests will be free from any unhealthy contaminants that could harm your customers or loved ones.
- Environmentally Friendly – The raw material we use to manufacture the fabric in our pots is made from 100% recycled BPA Free water bottles. After use, most of the material in our finished pots is recyclable.
Plant Controlled
AQUAvalve is an exceptionally responsive means of feeding. It opens to supply water to a 1” depth and then closes. Once the plants have used that supply, the AQUAvalve reopens to repeat the cycle. No need to second guess plant requirements, compensate for conditions or recalibrate unnecessary pumps or computers!
The plant decides when more water and nutrients are needed. Say goodbye to over and under feeding!
Supercharged Root Growth!
The porous BPA-free, lead-free Spring Pot material allows improved gas exchange in the substrate. Free to breathe the root zone can see dramatically enhanced oxygen levels – supercharging growth.
When root tips reach the porous side of a Spring Pot they are ‘air-pruned’ – deterred from extending any further by the air outside. Secondary roots then develop, creating a fibrous root structure with vastly improved moisture and nutrient uptake. Root circling is also thus eliminated making it possible to produce bigger plants from smaller pots.
Reusable and Easy to Clean
Extremely durable and reusable, the Spring Pots are easily cleaned between uses if desired. Once emptied the Spring Pots are best left to dry. After a few days any dust and small roots are easily brushed off. Whilst this level of cleaning is completely sufficient the Spring Pot may be machine or tub washed in peroxide in order to sterilize. Do not put Spring Pots in a tumble dryer.
Everything You Need
A Spring Pot XL System contains all you need to set up an automated watering system with fabric pots. The compact size and portability that Spring Pot brings to XL means jaw-dropping reductions in shipping costs and much easier storage for stores and growers alike.
Easy to Expand
As with all of our systems the Spring Pot System is easily extended so many pots can be linked to a single reservoir. The pots and trays can be easily moved at will, if the plants grow too large they can be spaced further apart with ease. Once set up with a water and nutrient-filled reservoir this extremely versatile, gravity-fed system will run automatically. It will completely take care of all your plants' needs without the need for pumps, timers, or intensive maintenance.
When growing in AutoPot Watering Systems it is essential that a PotSock Round (PotSock included) be fitted to the base of each Spring Pot to provide root control.
Please note: Room humidity may be increased when growing with multiple Spring Pots indoors due to the exposed, porous surface of the fabric pots.

Pro Filter Vs Standard Filter
Pro Filter has a larger, drum-shaped filter area and a higher micron element for added protection against blockages. Its larger size makes dismantling and cleaning simple
Standard Filter is designed to be used with all sizes of FlexiTank and FlexiTank Pro. It is simply pushed onto the tap provided. It has a 13mm filter incorporated along its length to filter the water before it travels along the pipes. This fitting allows the user to push 1/2″ pipe, (Hosepipe) onto the end of the adapter.
FlexiTank Vs FlexiTank Pro
FlexiTank is everything you need in one compact box. It requires no tools for assembly, reduces storage and shipping costs and takes minutes to assemble. It really couldn’t be simpler. Unlike other waterbutts and barrels, the AutoPot FlexiTank can be stored away when not used, can fit where other reservoirs cannot go and are adaptable in ways standard reservoirs are not.
FlexiTank Pro’s reflective and light-tight skin beautifully disguises an extremely rugged, fully collapsible design within. Concealed reservoir supports and internal capacity markings add neat edges to the proven, ultra-strong, ultra-practical FlexiTank design.
