With a SIP Garden, all you have to do is keep an eye on the float gauge and ensure there's water in the reservoir - then Nature will take over as the water is wicked up into the soil as needed.How much? How often? Too much? Not enough? All questions that even experience gardeners will sometimes get wrong.
Water is most often the biggest variable when it comes too successful gardening outcomes. Drought Proof! Going through water restrictions? Fill the reservoir on your day to water, and grow with confidence. Because your plants won't have to go through stressful cycles of too wet then too dry, you can expect healthier plant growth and increased garden yields. As long as there is water in the reservoir of your SIP Garden, it will wick up evenly and consistently over time, creating the ideal moisture environment for your plants to thrive!. If you've ever read the back of most seed packs or seedling tags, it'll say something like: "Keep the soil evenly and consistently moist" and this is exactly the type of growing environment that SIP Gardens create.īy using SIPs to build sub-irrigated planters, wicking beds, or self-watering gardens, you tap into the power of watering the way nature intended. When you're reliant upon top watering, you're always at risk of water cycles that are too wet, then too dry. Also just like rain, when there's too much, water will run off wastefully creating a mess and washing away nutrients. The water will evaporate before it has time to get down and reach the roots. But rain is fickle, inconsistent and you often get not enough, or too much! Just like rain, when there's not enough, top watering is susceptible to evaporation. These days, almost all conventional irrigation techniques are designed to mimic rainfall - water from the top down. In Nature we see this take place in fertile river deltas, where the river water slowly seeps out and under the surrounding land, allowing plants and crops a continuous access to water - even under the hottest conditions and without rain. SIPs allow you to emulate this amazing natural phenomena, and apply it to the urban growing environment. In all the world's most bountiful growing environments, sub-irrigation occurs as water wicks up from hidden natural water tables, into the top soil, up to thriving plants above. That is 2,500,000 tons of carbon dioxide.Sub-Irrigation isn't a new idea - it's old. These toxins leached into our environment. 17,000,000 barrels of oil were used to produce those bottles. 24,080,000,000 plastic water bottles end up in American landfills every year.
Producing, transporting and disposing of plastic bottles damages our environment.As a nation we spend over one hundred billion dollars every year. The average American wastes over $400 every year on bottled water. Not intended for any other type of liquids, water only. Effectively reduces contaminants from water. These charges ionically transform molecules and heavy metals into insoluble salts which are then electroplated onto the media”, thereby removing them from the water through the process of Electro-Chemical Oxidation Reduction. The non-toxic, patented media inside the straw “acts like millions of little batteries giving off electric charges. This is an Ionic Water Purification System. It’s as simple as a sip through a straw! Long lasting too! Approximately five 8 ounce glasses a water a day for up to four to six months depending on the condition of the water. Is truly a welcomed addition to health conscious individuals who prefer to drink fresh, clean water anywhere, anytime! Great for the home, office, restaurants, hotels, or travel.
This reduces such heavy metals as lead, mercury, hydrogen sulphide, aluminum, arsenic, cadmium, chromium, barium in addition to chlorine, fluoride, giardia, e-coli, algae, fungus, scale and sediment. It uses the latest state-of-the-art technology in water filtration a combination of three micro filters, activated charcoal, and a patented, high purity metal alloy consisting of two dissimilar metals that, once wet, creates an electrostatic charge that attracts contaminants and electroplates them onto the media through the process of Electro-Chemical Oxidation Reduction. Clean Sip™ is truly a unique personal, portable, water filter.
