Porous Pipe allows you to route water or air to areas in need of gentle, comprehensive irrigation or aeration. You can use the pipe with water as a soaker hose. In this configuration the pipe is buried to a max depth of 20cm and wicks out irrigation to satisfy your plants at a manageable rate, highly conducive to healthy growth. 

Alternatively you can use it with air as part of an air curtain. In this configuration the pipe is connected to airline coming from an air pump. The pipe itself is submerged in your tank and oxygenates your nutrient solution, hugely stimulating root development. 

Either way this innovative pipe, produced from recycled rubber, offers incredible flexibility to those creating homemade irrigation systems.
