Autodosers provide
consistency, precision, and
certainty while removing
the potential for human
error. It’s no wonder
that commercial and
hobby growers alike are
taking advantage of this
revolutionary automation.

A
n indoor horticulturist may use
many different automation
devices to increase the efficiency
of his or her garden. Light timers,
thermostats, humidistats, and CO 2
controllers are all automation devices
commonly found in an indoor garden.
Another automation device that
has become more popular among
indoor gardeners is an autodoser.
Autodosers, also known as nutrient
dosers, are devices revolutionizing
the way horticulturists monitor and
maintain the nutrient concentration
within a hydroponic nutrient solution
or automated irrigation system. Like
other automation devices, autodosers
are designed to increase overall
efficiency and reduce labor.
