The RainForest System allows you to rapidly root
cuttings and germinate seeds. You can raise small
plants to maturity in the RainForest, or start your
plants in the RainForest and transplant them to your
garden or to another hydroponic system such as the
General Hydroponics WaterFarm.
You will be
amazed by the kinds of plants that can be propagated
from cuttings using the RainForest. These include
Fruit and nut trees, ornamental shrubs, vegetables,
and flowers n many of which have never been propagated
by cuttings before. Of course, easily-propagated
plants will root quickly and grow phenomenally in the
RainForest.
The RainForest secret is the
patented aero-hydroponic method of delivering the
nutrient solution. Oxygen-charged nutrient solution is
sprayed through the air onto the cuttings, seeds, and
newly formed roots. This oxygen-rich nutrient solution
constantly circulates within the RainForest reservoir,
so that much more oxygen reaches the root boundary
zone than with other hydroponic systems. The roots
absorb optimal levels of both oxygen and nutrients, so
that the entire plant thrives.
Each
RainForest module consists of:
Reservoir with drain/level tube -- 17
gallon capacity Reservoir cover Root
Guard Root Guard Sleeve Lid inserts
Vortex Sprayer (with Sprayer Boot) Hydroton
Growing cups (plastic net cups) CocoTek
liners & caps - Model 236 has 36 -
2" sites (6 in each lid insert) -

insert) - Model 66 has 6 - 6" sites
(1 in each lid insert) |

An Optional RainForest System Controller
automatically maintains the level of the nutrient in
many interconnected RainForest modules. This option is
perfect for large-scale growing, since it eliminates
the need to monitor each module separately.
