Why Blumat is Ideal for Mother Plants This Mother’s Day, as we pause to appreciate the mothers who’ve shaped our lives, it’s also worth recognizing another kind of essential caregiver: the mother plants that sustain your garden. In any propagation-focused cannabis operation, mother plants serve a vital role. They preserve genetics, maintain strain integrity, and supply a steady stream of healthy cuttings. They may not get flowered or harvested, but without them, the rest of the system falls apart. Caring for these plants requires consistency and nowhere is that more critical than with irrigation.

“Cooper you mad genius! Thanks to @sustainablevillage I am removing the last big obstacle to my grow set up, and that is watering. Always worried about finding a trustworthy plant sitter that won’t over water is a thing of the past! This is a low pressure system that is going to run the @blumatwateringsystems drippers and soaker hoses, maintaining the exact soil moisture I want. Super stoked to be one of the first to demo these new units, I will be making an assembly and installation video for the YouTube, so stay tuned to see this set up in action!” - @florofarm #sustainablevillage #blumatwateringsystems

Blumat Classics are the leading plant watering stakes on the market because they hit the sweet spot between simplicity, efficiency, and reliability Here’s why they stand out: 1. Passive, Gravity-Fed System • No power, no timers, no pumps, just physics and clay. That means fewer things can go wrong, and they’re ideal for indoor plants or remote setups. 2. Self-Regulating Technology • The terracotta cone senses when the soil is dry and releases water only when needed, preventing overwatering and root rot, two of the biggest killers of houseplants. 3. Easy to Set Up and Use • No technical knowledge required. Just soak, fill, stick it in, and forget it… for weeks. 👀 4. Trusted Globally Since the 1960s • Made in Austria and field-tested for decades in everything from houseplants to greenhouses, they’ve built a reputation for quality and consistency. 5. Eco-Friendly and Cost-Efficient • Because they conserve water and nutrients, they’re not just good for your plants, they’re good for the planet too. 🌎 6. No Root Shock or Soil Disturbance • Unlike spike-based systems that flood or dry out areas unevenly, Blumats create stable micro-environments that plants thrive in.

These beds are looking alive! Blumat systems keep constant, steady levels of moisture in soil. The regular supply of moisture keeps microbial communities happy, in homeostasis, and with the ability to multiply. With hand-watering systems, the dry/wet cycles can stress out bacteria and other microorganisms. When these organisms are stressed, they produce chemical compounds that can negatively affect your soil (anyone who has seen hydrophobic soil, or water that runs off the top of a container has seen this 1st-hand!) and plant health. Hydrophobic soil is actually due to water-resistant glues produced by bacteria. The bacteria sense an impending drought, and produce a membrane around their colony that prevents moisture from escaping. However, this membrane also prevents moisture from getting in if the bacteria die. When you water your soil after it dries out, you might notice water running off the top and over the sides of the pot, rather than integrating with the soil. You’re watching the water contact these membrane compounds produced by bacteria. These compounds are not easy to remove! By keeping your microorganisms healthy and happy, your soil and plants will stay happy too.

Are Blumats really expensive? Let’s break it down: 1. What’s your time worth? If you’re hand-watering dozens of plants, you’re spending hours each week. Blumats automate that—saving you serious time. 2. What are you spending on nutrients? Blumats use 1/3 to 1/2 the nutrients compared to hand-watering or even traditional drip systems. That’s money back in your pocket. 3. Water usage? Standard drip systems can use 4 liters per hour—per plant. Blumats use a fraction of that over an entire day. With water shortages on the rise, smart irrigation isn’t just efficient—it’s essential. So ask yourself again: Is Blumat really expensive—or is it a smarter investment? #WaterSmart #GrowYourOwn #SustainableIrrigation #Blumat

This technology utilizes a simple ceramic cone that employs a principle of hydrostatic pressure, to deliver water extremely slowly, and at the plant’s own preferred rate. • Beautiful image by 🙏 @find0g . . . #blumat #blumats #blumatsforthewin #garden #gardening #houseplants

Let’s Dissect the Capillary Mat Aquamat capillary mats are the highest quality mats we offer. They are completely composed, and ready to integrate with Blumat Watering Systems. So what are they? These mats have five components in four distinct layers. The black, perforated material prevents algae and other unwanted biologicals from penetrating into the mat. Contrary to popular belief, this material WILL stop roots from penetrating the mat! This makes the mats incredibly easy to clean, and moving plants is never stressful – for you, or for the plant. The evaporation block layer prevents salt or other fertilizer build up in the capillary material itself. It also prevents excess evaporation from occurring, and helps to prevent excessively high humidity. This reduces the burden on dehumidifiers, air conditioning appliances, and other temperature/humidity control infrastructure. The next layer does the actual “work” in these systems. This material is extremely absorbent of water and nutrient solution. It is so absorbent that it evenly emits the moisture throughout the capillary material, ensuring there are no overly wet/dry pockets. And last but not least - the containment barrier is a completely waterproof material that prevents all run-off from the cap mat, and prevents unwanted biologicals from growing into/through the bottom of the mat.

“I would like see a world where the ethics of permaculture; people care, earth care and fair shares, are imbedded in everything we do.” - @loobymacnamara Working with nature it is possible to reverse the destruction caused by large scale industrial agriculture and restore our ecosystems to benefit everyone and everything while still producing food. Permaculture Illustration by the amazing art activist @brenna_quinlan #reshare @brenna_quinlan “What’s the opposite of extraction? Regeneration? Reconstruction? Transformation? What’s the opposite of the industrial culture or extractive culture? Permaculture, land-based living, Indigenous stewardship, holistic thinking, sustainability, community resilience...and so many more. List what I’ve forgotten in the comments, I know it’s a huge list. Through these opposites to the norm, we can undo the damage done. It’s not about just stopping harm, but to complete the picture we’ve got to actively do good. We fly less AND we plant trees. We ditch single use plastic AND we lobby our local politicians. We say no to racism in our lives AND we support our local refugee centre while actively campaigning to make the system better for refugees. This is how we turn things around.” - Brenna Quinlan Repost from @visionary_permaculture #circulareconomy #alternativeeconomy #permanomics #communitycurrency #designlife #urbanpermaculture #waldorf #forestschool #permacultureguild #homeschool #gardenart #permacultureart #artactivism #lovelife #blessedlife #inspiringart #artofinspiration #natureforthewin #consciousliving #sustainableliving #regenerativeliving #learningpermaculture #uplifteachother #bekind #transition #permaculture
