Live AutoPot Trials from Valley Grown Nuseries

We are proud to announce that we have now set up our main trial for 2012 at Valley Grown Nurseries. The trial will run for two years utilising the easy2grow systems to grow pepper plants in a total of 88 pots using market leaders Canna and Gold Label coco mediums. Valley Grown Nurseries is one of the UK’s most prestigious and respected nurseries, they grow over 250,000 pepper plants a year, supplying the main supermarkets within the UK with peppers all year round. The trial is being conducted in a controlled environment of 72 degrees, humidity of 75% and the fertiliser used is a bespoke mix compiled by Gary Taylor, one of the leading horticulturalists in the UK.

The trial will be monitored 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to truly show the development of the plants and progression of the project. There is the above live stream video as well as time lapse photography, a photo will be taken every 5 minutes, then the photos will be regularly collated to create a video showing the progression of the trial over time. Watch this space for live updates throughout next year within the website and features in newsletters on the trial’s progress. Here at AutoPot we are extremely confident that this will be our best commercial trial to date.
