Plant details

Take the guesswork out of watering with AquaMat Capillary Mat Kits — designed for consistent, bottom-up hydration that accelerates vegetative growth and increases soil aeration. Each kit is fully customizable. Choose your mat size, irrigation control method, and container option.

Mat Size Options ＋

2×4 ft
3×3 ft
4×4 ft
4×8 ft

Irrigation Control Options ＋

Preset 5" Blumat Sensor — Placed into a pilot container filled with soil, this sensor regulates water flow into the mat based on soil moisture levels. Best suited for pots 4" or larger.
Surface-Mounted Blumat — A bell-shaped ceramic base that attaches to a Blumat sensor and sits directly on the mat. Fine-tune moisture levels for uniform watering across the surface. Ideal for cell trays or small containers.
No Sensor — For manual watering. No fittings included.

Container Options ＋

Grassroots 1-Gallon Bottomless Sleeves — Maximize aeration and allow roots to grow through the open base into the mat. Ideal for easy transplanting. (10 for 2×4, 20 for 3×3 or 4×4, 40 for 4×8)
Non-Woven Nursery Pots — Biodegradable, tear-resistant fabric bags that allow roots to grow through the sides and bottom for easy transplanting. (50 with any mat size)
None — Use your own containers. Any pot with holes flush to the bottom will work.

What You'll Also Need ＋

This kit covers the mat and containers. To complete your system you'll also need an 8mm supply line and a water source:

8mm Supply Line — runs from your water source to the sensor. See our 8mm SuperFlex Supply Line Kits.
Gravity Reservoir — our complete 5-Gallon Deluxe Bucket Kit, or use our 8mm Bulkhead Fittings with any container of your choosing.
Pressurized Source (hose bib or pump) — requires a Pressure Reducer to bring pressure down to the safe Blumat range of 7–15 PSI.
