The advantages of WaterUps Wicking Beds

WaterUps wicking beds have been designed to make gardening easier, more cost-effective, and productive, while saving you considerable time and money (on watering costs and struggling plants).

The WaterUps wicking bed that is below the surface delivers a number of benefits:

Water is where it’s needed – at the source – closer to the plants’ roots, allowing the plant to draw up water as it’s needed.
The overflow pipe prevents roots rotting.
There is far less water wastage and evaporation (Note we still recommend mulching)
Plants are consequently less stressed, (from not enough water)
Gardeners only need to top up the reservoir from the inlet pipe when its needed which is significantly less than other methods
Homeowners and garden caretakers can leave gardens unattended for a few weeks – even in summer – and return to healthy plants.
A smart phone alert can also be set up to tell you when you need to top up your WaterUps Reservoir – or it can be automated at set-up.

Importantly, WaterUps uses 20% of traditional above ground watering volumes and has been proven to increase yield by 40%.

WaterUps is made in Australia from solid, recycled, long-lasting and non-toxic PP plastic. With its modular design it can be used in small through to very large pots; in raised garden beds or planter boxes; and in a variety of in-ground applications from growing turf to trees, to rain gardens. Our Wicking beds truly are the future of gardening.
