Proportional Fertilizer Injector for Gardeners

The ADD-IT 1 Pint Automatic Proportional Fertilizer Injector from DIG Corporation is the perfect solution for home gardeners. It connects to any standard 3/4" garden hose spigot or connection, requiring no outside power source and featuring no moving parts, thus minimizing the need for maintenance. This innovative device allows users to effortlessly fertilize their lawns, shrubs, trees, flowers, raised beds, vines, and potted plants as they water, ensuring an economical and efficient application of nutrients.

The key features of the ADD-IT fertilizer injector include its simple and easy installation, heavy-walled, UV-resistant PVC construction, and compatibility with any liquid or water-soluble dry fertilizer. The unique hydraulic design ensures that the fertilizer is applied proportionately and evenly throughout a drip system or conventional sprinkler irrigation system without any pressure loss. This makes the ADD-IT ideal for use in residential, commercial, greenhouse, and nursery settings.

The ADD-IT fertilizer injector has received the prestigious AE50 award of recognition from the American Society of Agricultural Engineers for its outstanding innovations in product design. However, it is important to note that the unit must be installed in a vertical upright position and is not rated for use under constant pressure.

The working principle of the ADD-IT Fertilizer Injectors is based on a clever hydraulic design. The fertilizer additive is placed into the canister, but it does not become diluted as the irrigation system operates. A small amount of water is diverted from the mainline, flows into the canister, and is then forced back into the top, re-entering the mainline. This creates a slight pressure differential between the inlet and the outlet, which draws the fertilizer out from the bottom of the canister.

The water entering the top of the ADD-IT canister is lighter than the solution of fertilizer inside it. The liquid fertilizer solution has a heavier specific gravity than the water, causing it to sit on top of the fertilizer solution instead of mixing with it. This ensures that the distribution of fertilizer remains consistent from beginning to end. Once the fertilizer solution is fully dispensed, the canister will contain only water.

Overall, the ADD-IT 1 Pint Automatic Proportional Fertilizer Injector from DIG Corporation provides a convenient, efficient, and economical way for home gardeners to nourish their plants and landscapes, making it an invaluable tool for maintaining a thriving outdoor space.
