The Spinner™ A Plant Rotating Vertical Garden
The Spinner
is a fully enclosed hydroponic growth chamber in which the individual
plants are automatically rotated on their axis, exposing the entire
plant to a centrally mounted light source. The roots are automatically
fed via "flood-and-drain", and the atmosphere is controlled via one
125 CFM exhaust fan. What this means is that the plants within the Spinner
receive the ultimate care, with very little maintenance. Typically the
Spinner yields a greater dry plant mass with approximately 450 watts
of power than a traditional hydroponic system using over 1000 watts.
Competitive
Advantages
Our patented mechanism for rotating plants on their axis is something
that the industry has never seen before. Exposing the plants on all
sides produces: even, healthy growth on all parts of the plants, the
quality of plant product is unbeatable. Using fewer plants than our
competitors is one of our main advantages; most systems that have been
brought to market within the last 10 years had the customer working
with 80-360 plants per system. Our system is the first high yielding
machine that uses only 12 plants to achieve large yields. The Spinner
is fully enclosed, so controlling the atmosphere and even introducing
CO2 into the unit is easy.
The manufacturing of the system is done with tough durable parts like
1/4" ABS moulded Lid and Trough, hygenic 1/4" HDPE Drive System, strong
light weight Aluminum alloy doors and supporting structure and a clear
polycarbonate Trough Cover. Superior engineering gives us a great advantage
by keeping material cost down without sacrificing durability and making
the product more cost effective to ship.
Spinner Hydroponics competitive edge is also based on the unique and
patented method of rotating plants on their axis, those in the industry
realize the advantage of this from the moment they see the system. We
have also implemented in to the design of the Spinner the known advantages
of surrounding the light source with plants in order to maximize energy
efficiency.
The Spinner offers the same yield-per-watt ratio as hydroponic systems
that use over 10x the number of plants. Due to the fact that plants
in the Spinner are rotated on their axis they are able to grow much
larger without growing into the hot agricultural bulb thereby burning.
Using fewer
plants has many advantages including, but not limited to:
* Lower cost
between crops; other systems require the user to spend over $200 per
crop for the mineral fiber rooting medium, the Spinner requires less
than $10 worth of mineral fiber per crop, and can also be used with
other substrates.
* Less maintenance; cloning, transplanting and harvesting plants is
less time consuming and laborious, because The Spinner gets the most
out of each plant.
* Better environmental control; we have out done our competitors again
by enclosing the system, allowing better options for atmosphere control
How It Works
Light
(not included)
Lower wattage saves money directly, and due to the exceptional growing
conditions of The Spinner there is no sacrificing yield. We recommend
the Sun Agro 430 watt bulb, but more experience growers may use up to
a 600 watt HPS, to increase their yield.
Doors
Heavy gauge, light weight, aluminum doors that are scratch resistant
and will not rust or breakdown from UV exposure. The doors fit into
moulded tracks at the base and lid of the Spinner and slide along the
circumference to expose 6 plants at a time.
Atmosphere
Multiple 12volt DC fans circulate air within the chamber and a large
100CFM Fan exhausts the chamber's 16.5 cubic foot volume.
Root Chamber
The root chamber is equipped with all the plumbing needed for flood
and drain operation. The chamber is enclosed to inhibit contaminants
from entering.
Space Usage
The Spinner requires no additional hardware to stack, thereby saving
floorspace (stacking more than three Spinners high is not recommended).
Plants
The Spinner has plants situated beside the light source and as the plant
attempts to grow toward the light it is rotated away. This action results
in symmetrical, extremely strong, healthy plants with supercharged yield
and quality.
Multi-Spinner feeding mechanism
Syphon valves in the Spinner allow the operator to feed the top unit
and have the feeding solution gravity fed to the Spinners below (while
stacked). This feature saves money, power and time by using just one
inexpensive pump to feed the entire stack of Spinners.
Stack Spinners to increase your growing area!
The Spinner comes with all of the hardware needed to stack them. Three Spinners stand approximately 7.5' tall, so they easily fit in a standard 8' ceiling space.
