Description

With the GARDENA AquaBloom, you can water your plants on the balcony and potted plants automatically. Even when you're away. This smart irrigation system works without a faucet or power connection. The solar panel charges the rechargeable batteries. The 3-in-1 main unit draws in water, regulates the watering schedule, and distributes the water via pressure-compensating drip heads. You can take care of up to 20 plants with 14 preset programs, where each drip head provides up to 300mm of water. You can place the AquaBloom wherever you want, on the wall, on a table, or attached to a pot, for example. Thanks to the easy installation without tools and the filled water tank, your system is always ready for use. That way, you can enjoy healthy plants, even when you're on vacation.

Good concept, bad quality.

  • It works (for a while)
  • Product without alternative
  • Keep your plants alive
  • The longevity (this is already my third)
As a concept, it's great, watering your plants with time control and solar-powered pump. Unfortunately the quality is below par, this is already my third copy in two years. The devices stop working or the time control blocks and even with other batteries they can no longer be started. Everything is cast in a block of resin, so repairing yourself is impossible. Unfortunately there are no alternatives to it.

Ideal for balcony plants.

  • Easy to use
  • Sufficient drippers
  • Long dripper hose
  • You cannot determine the output per dripper.
Ideal for when you have plants (on the balcony) and you are going away for a while. With a pedal bin filled with water, we were able to leave for 3 weeks without any worries. (The pump is not connected to a tap but has a hose that has to go to the water supply). The pump is small and charges via solar panels. You can set how often the dripper should be dripped (once every 12, 24, 48 or 72 hours) and you can set how long the dripper should be on. With 500ml per hour per dripper, it is easy to set how much water a plant receives. For example: you can choose to drip for 15 minutes, per dripper there is then 500ml / 4 = 125ml water dispensation. We have given some plants more than 1 dropper to give those plants more water. There is no need for a separate garden hose for all of this to work.

Nice product, wrong material choices

  • No power required
  • Take care of your plants even when you are not at home
  • Many options to connect
  • You need a source of water (logical but still)
I enjoyed it a lot the first year. Unfortunately, the product slowly started to weather, apparently due to UV wear. I tried to use it for a while but eventually the product is no longer able to charge properly and it is impossible to see which settings you choose.
