Benefits

The MaxiCube is a mess-free hydroponic growing pot that uses up to 90% less water than conventional soil pots. This means that you spend far less time watering your plants every time they dry up, freeing you up to leave your plants unattended for significant periods of time.

By growing hydroponically you have the ability to use Hydroponic nutrients to provide the perfect blend of macro and micronutrients for plant growth. The pots can be used in conjunction with our EasyGro and BreezyGro lights to form a complete growing system that can be done completely indoors.

You can choose to buy this product with Smart Soil or Expanded Clay

Growing Mediums

Growing Mediums

Smart Soil

Smart soil can be used for germinating and growing plants from seed, or transplanting propagated plants. It’s main features are:
  • High water retention
  • Low Oxygen retention
  • Moderate physical support for plants

Expanded clay

Expanded clay does not hold any water, so if you plant seeds on it they won't grow. Expanded clay is awesome for growing plants that already have an existing root system - making it a great medium for propagations and transplants. It’s main features are:
  • Low water retention
  • Moderate Oxygen retention
  • High physical support for plants
Instructions

Instructions

The MaxiCube has an internal and external pot. The internal pot holds the growing medium, while the external pot allows for water storage without flooding your plants.

Growing in Smart Soil

  1. Fill the MaxiCube with smart soil, perlite or expanded clay.
  2. Add water until the water level indicator is 1cm from its maximum position.
  3. Add seeds and bury them as per seed specifications (read seed sachet). Sprinkle water over the top to activate the seeds.
  4. Place pot in an appropriate place (Under a grow light, or in the sun).
  5. Refill water when the indicator gets low. Add 1 scoop of nutrients per 1L of water and make sure to mix it in until its dissolved. Don't overfill water.

Growing in Expanded Clay

  1. Add a thin layer of expanded clay to the bottom of your pot.
  2. Place plant roots over the expanded clay, and add expanded clay around the plant to hold it in place.
  3. Mix 1 spoon of nutrients with 1L of water and add the solution to the pot until the water level indicator is 1cm from its maximum position.
  4. Place pot in an appropriate place (Under a grow light, or in the sun).
  5. Refill water when the indicator shows low water levels. Add 1 5mL per 1L of water and make sure to mix it in until its dissolved. Don't overfill water.

    Awesome product, going to buy more

    I failed initially when I first planted the seeds, but the team had a look at my photos and guided me on the right track to having another go. I've got more basil than I know what to do with now and am going to invest in some more pots to have my own little indoor herb garden for my small apartment.

    Great

    Works well and easy to set up once you find the instructions on how to set up the water gauge. I really like the grey colour.

    Stylish and effective

    Tidy little planter, the ingenious water meter makes it easy to see at a glance how the reservoir is going. Enjoying fresh basil in our weekly spag bol is magnificent!

    Self watering pot -square

    Love these pots. Perfect size for the bench above the sink. Three together look great, will be planting basil, mint and one other herb. Would love it if there were another size between the large round pot and these square ones.

    Happy plant parent

    Love the look of these pots. Very modern. A lot cheaper than other websites too. I also love the kit options with leca. I have been thinking of using leca for a while so this was perfect.

    These pots fit in and look good wherever you set them up in your house and the water level is just so handy.
