Bonsanto® Automated Irrigation System Grow Box
When you’re on vacation or frequently on the go, it’s common to ask your neighbors to water your houseplants. However, relying on others to care for your favorite plant isn’t always ideal. The Bonsanto® Automated Irrigation System Grow Box is the perfect solution, as it allows you to water your plants without needing assistance.
Even if you’re home but want to avoid under- or overwatering your favorite plant or don’t want to worry about daily watering—this system is ideal for you! Many grow beginners don’t realize the importance of proper plant hydration. Before starting a grow, it’s essential to learn about plant watering. Our Bonsanto® Grow Box irrigation system can be a huge help, saving you both time and effort.
Automated Irrigation System for Grow Box
In short, an automated irrigation system saves you from manually watering your plants by setting up automatic watering intervals that suit your needs.
The system consists of several components. There’s a water container placed next to the grow box, a water pump, and a timer. The pump, submerged in the water container, draws water through a hose to supply your plants with water. The timer allows you to set specific watering intervals.
How to Use the Grow Box Irrigation System
The Bonsanto® Grow Box irrigation system includes a USB Wi-Fi timer and a USB pump. You can schedule the watering of your plants for several weeks in advance. The set includes hoses for two or four plants. If you need to water more than four plants, we recommend purchasing a second system.
Simply place the USB pump into a water container, such as a pot or bucket. The suction cups on the pump ensure it stays in place. This prevents the pump from shifting and interrupting your plant’s water supply. Connect the USB pump to the digital Wi-Fi timer, and you’re ready to go! The timer allows you to schedule specific times for watering your plants.
The amount of water your plant needs depends on factors such as its growth phase. For more details, check our blog on indoor plant watering. As a rule of thumb, water your plant when the top layer of soil is dry. Generally, the water amount should equal about 30% of the pot’s volume. For example, for Bonsanto’s 3.2-liter pots, you’ll need approximately 1 liter of water when the soil’s top layer is dry. Be sure to adjust according to your plant’s growth phase to avoid watering mistakes.
Features of the Grow Box Irrigation System
No advanced knowledge is needed to set up the Bonsanto® irrigation system, making it beginner-friendly for indoor growing. The system prevents overwatering and underwatering, two common issues that can harm plant growth and yield.
Overwatering is especially problematic, as it can negatively affect your plant’s health and productivity. While underwatering is less common, it still poses a threat to plant development. The Bonsanto® system is perfect not only for when you’re on vacation but also for preventing errors throughout the growing process that might occur with manual watering.
The digital timer in the system is smartphone-compatible, allowing you to set and control watering times daily via an app. Detailed instructions are included to help you set the ideal watering schedule.
As electricity costs continue to rise, growing with energy efficiency is increasingly important. The Bonsanto® Grow Box irrigation system is highly energy-efficient, making it a more cost-effective option compared to other systems in the long run.
A water container is not included, so you can choose the size that best suits your plants and situation. The longer you’re away, the larger the container should be. For shorter trips, a smaller bucket may suffice.

Ich habe mir das Video von Chris Roberts angeschaut und das Bewässerungsset daraufhin gekauft. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4YJuku3-LY&t=387s Genau, nachdem ich gesucht habe. Sehr simples System, funktioniert aber.

Ich war mir erst unsicher, wie genau das Bewässerungssystem funktioniert, aber ich bin echt zufrieden. Ich bin oft beruflich unterwegs, weshalb für mich nur ein automatisiertes Bewässerungssystem in Frage kommt. Es funktioniert super! Habe alles so gemacht, wie es in der Beschreibung steht und steuere die Bewässerung per App. Ich kann beruhigt unterwegs sein und muss mir keine Sorgen machen, dass meine Pflanzen zu Hause vertrocknen. Die Installation und Bedienung ist super einfach. 4 Sterne gibts, da ich zwei Systeme gekauft habe, um meine sieben Pflanzen zu bewässern. Ist aber kein großers Problem. Von daher Alles top! Eine Empfehlung.
