Hydroponic Farming with Hydramax
Hydroponic Farming involves cultivating plants in nutrient-rich, oxygenated water rather than traditional soil. HydraMax is advancing deep water culture through Recirculating Deep Water Culture (RDWC), a method that intelligently recirculates water. RDWC offers numerous benefits, significantly impacting plant growth, enabling them to thrive and accelerate their development more rapidly than conventional methods.
Hydroponic farming conserves water significantly while simultaneously enhancing your crop yield in a shorter timeframe.
HydraMax systems efficiently provide water and nutrients to every plant with speed and uniformity. Unlike the sequential feeding approach, HydraMax employs a parallel nutrition feed system, ensuring consistent and simultaneous nourishment to all plants. This method promotes plant health and boosts yields.
Furthermore, HydraMax incorporates the innovative Venturi circulator, which not only maintains a consistent water flow but also generates a continuous airstream directed at the plant roots, ensuring a constant supply of oxygen for optimal growth.
Venturi Circulators
Instantaneous feeding & eliminates the need for airstones that clog and degrade. Our patented circulator and filter is easy to disconnect for cleaning and maintenance.
Raised Buckets
Raised bucket design allows plumbing to run underneath, cleaner grow environments, and saves valuable floorspace.
Center Drain
Our bucket speeds up assembly times, and reduces maintenance needs with its smooth-walled, central drained design.
No Reservoir
HydraMax systems do not require a reservoir, saving operational expenses and additional valuable floor space.
Clean in Place
Clean in place is a method of cleaning the interior surfaces of pipes, vessels, equipment, filters and associated fittings, without major disassembly.
Qwik-Lok Plumbing
Qwik-Lok™ plumbing ensures you’re up-and-running quicker with less maintenance. Extremely easy to use with zero gluing or cutting necessary.
Doser Ready
Nutrients are delivered evenly, at industry-topping speeds. This ensures healthier, higher-yield crops in less time.
Comprehensive Support
Our engineering, sales, and customer service is here to support your growing success with every step.
One Technology - Two Versions
“I have been growing Deep Water Culture for over 5 years now and have tried a lot of different systems over the years. Nothing comes close to this system’s performance. In my opinion, HydraMax is pretty much the gold standard for any passionate hydro grower.”
Dario Baric, Intense Labs
Here’s a review conducted by the team at GARDEN SUPPLY GUYS, where they thoroughly examined the 2×2 HydraMax Hydroponic PRO System.
TetraBase - the perfect medium for your plants!
Designed specifically for Deep Water Culture, TetraBase is a clean and reusable media that delivers the support large plants require. It does not affect pH, attract pests, promote bacteria or introduce dust or debris to your system.
Made in USA with 100% recycled materials, it is 100% reusable. Start increasing the cleanliness of your grow environments while saving costs long-term today! TetraBase saves you from constantly having to adjust pH levels.
FAQ HydraMax
HydraMax buckets hold approx. 30 liters of water and have a scale on the side of the bucket to help you track how much water your system is holding.
No matter how many buckets are included in your 3-32 bucket system, the pump is universal for all sizes. If you have purchased a 1 or 2 bucket HOME system, we provide a different, but smaller heavy-duty pump.
A hydroponic chiller is essential for keeping your reservoir at the perfect temperature. The temperature of your nutrient solution could prevent your plants from absorbing nutrients if it gets too warm and the root zone could be infected with mold, mildew and other problems. On HOME systems you can control the water temperature by running the pump in intervals, e.g. 1 minute on, 5 minutes off.
A 4-row system needs a different set of supply lines. And if you want to extend your system in future, we recommended to start off with a 4-row system that you can extend to 32 buckets, if needed.
First of all, both systems are built to last with premium parts & materials, using the same technology. However, the HOME system uses hoses with a smaller passage and can therefore not be extended further at a later date. Also, the Heavy-Duty pump on the HOME systeme is smaller.
FAQ TetraBase
TetraBase is made from 100% recycled Polypropylene. Polypropylene is considered to be the safest of all plastics. It is approved for food and beverage storage and is BPA free, too!
TetraBase was designed with 6 key features that clay balls do not have.
- TetraBase is made from Polypropylene just like the buckets and other components of the system so they may be used and reused indefinitely.
- TetraBase is non-porous. This can be a major factor in bacteria breeding grounds as well and makes sanitation easier.
- As your plants grow larger, TetraBase interlocks and grows in strength , creating the ultimate base for your stalks.
- TetraBase is pH Neutral. TetraBase will not effect your pH like other media, allowing you to dial in your control levels.
- TetraBase is Non-abrasive and friendly to young fragile plants. Smooth surfaces are also ideal in a DWC environment to avoid any tiny pockets where bacteria growth can occur.
- Debris/Dust free. Unlike Clay balls, TetraBase will not discolor your roots, water, or deteriorate and drop into your plumbing system which would wreak havoc on your pump and chiller. TetraBase is CLEAN and even if it does manage to get loose into the system, it floats on the surface so it will not be an issue for your pump/plumbing system.
TetraBase is made from the same materials as your buckets and many other parts in the HydraMax System and may be cleaned like any other part. One suggestion would be to place the TetraBase into a mesh bag and add this to a bucket in the system when circulating a cleaning solution through the system.
TetraBase is packaged in 1 and 6 liter bags. Not all net pots are created equal and can vary in volume but generally, a 5.5″ or 6″ net pot holds about 1 Liter of media.
