Crops › Redcurrants
Redcurrants on substrate need steady irrigation and good water quality. With Drain Monitoring you see for every cycle what goes in and what comes out, how EC and pH behave and how moist your substrate is.
Drain at the first irrigation cycle means the plants stayed too wet overnight. No drain, or drain that comes too late, points to too little water. For every cycle you see what goes in and what comes out, so you can adjust straight away.
If the EC in the drain rises, the plant takes up water less easily. See the EC in and out.
The pH of the incoming and outgoing water determines how well the plant takes up nutrients.
Measure the volumetric water content (VWC) and the EC in the substrate itself, plus the temperature, to see whether the substrate is moist enough.
All measurements are in the same app and the same portal, with alarms you set yourself.
DMS Basic for drain and flow. DMS EC for EC as well, DMS PHEC for pH and EC, and DMS PHEC PRO for the volumetric water content (VWC), EC and temperature in the substrate.
Add temperature and humidity for VPD, and optionally Leaf-to-air to see heat coming.
This is a starting point. We are happy to look together at what suits your business, and prepare a tailored proposal.
Yes, for substrate cultivation of redcurrants. We are happy to discuss how it fits your setup.
Yes. You measure EC with DMS EC; pH and EC together with DMS PHEC and DMS PHEC PRO.
Tell us what you grow and what you want to know. We will think along on the setup that suits you.
