Alien Hydroponics 16 Pot (4 Row) V-System RDWC - BD100-0416
(Recirculating Deep Water System)
Welcome to the future of hydroponics. The powerful V-SYSTEM has been designed to help you grow trees with brand-new technology never seen before in the industry. Years have been spent developing this highly oxygenated RDWC system that will give you the healthiest root zones and massive yields.
In an industry first, the V-SYSTEM doesn’t use an air pump to oxygenate the nutrient solution. Instead, using precision design, the water flow creates a whirlpool that oxygenates the fluid content of the entire pot, rather than just the area around the air source. No matter where your roots are growing in the pot, they will receive the highest oxygen levels to grow exceptional crops.
The nutrient solution is further oxygenated using venturi valve technology to draw air into the pot. Simple yet effective.
The massive 15 Gallon / 58ltr V-SYSTEM pots can hold giant root zones allowing for huge plants and the highest yields. Expertly designed, the sloped shape of the pot also enables you to drain the entire system so you’ll only grow in the freshest water.
Unlike other hydroponics systems, the V-SYSTEM’s JET-STREAM Vortex water pump is located outside the header pot, so less heat is transferred to the fluid. Cooler water temps mean less chance of root rot and other pathogens affecting your crop.
Ultra-wide, customizable length, 5” tubing and the Vortex pump create a free-flowing system that simultaneously injects each pot with nutrient solution. Whether you have a 4, or a 20 pot system, the nutrients supplied to your plants will be equal in every pot, giving you a consistent crop.
Now is the time to be part of the new wave of hydroponics systems that will make it easier for you to grow bigger and better than ever before. Order yours now.
Innovative in design and ready for the future
Years of research and development ensures success right from the start
Vortex Motion
The new, ground-breaking V-System uses a whirlpool to naturally oxygenate the solution and maintain perfect O2 levels for growing healthy plants.
Naturally Aspirated
Using Venturi technology, oxygen is drawn into the V-System creating a quiet flow of air without ever needing an air pump.
Free Flowing
In an industry first, the V-System uses ultra-wide 5” customizable length tubing to create extremely free flowing nutrients for any size grow room.
Grow Trees
The massive 58ltr V-pot can hold huge root zones allowing for incredible growth and the highest possible yields.
Perfect Nutrient Distribution
The pressurized V-System effectively delivers nutrients to every root system simultaneously, giving all of your plants the best growth advantage.
Total Drainage
The base of the V-pot is sloped to allow for 100% nutrient change-outs and ensure your plants are only grown in the freshest water.
Zero Heat Transfer
The V System’s water pump is outside the header pot meaning zero heat transfer from pump to fluid, keeping water cooler and roots healthier.
Oxygen
Combining the circular flow with the air injected by the Venturi’s, the V-System maintains the optimum 02 levels.

Maintenance Tips
-
Monitor Water Quality Daily: Check pH (5.5–6.5) and EC levels to prevent nutrient lockout and imbalances; adjust with pH up/down and nutrient top-ups.
-
Maintain Optimal Temperatures: Keep solution 18–20 °C (64–68 °F) for healthy roots and max oxygen solubility.
-
Regular Nutrient Refresh: Replace the nutrient solution every 7–14 days instead of just topping off to avoid salt buildup and depletion.
-
Clean & Sterilize System: Sanitize reservoirs, pumps, pipes, and fittings between cycles with food-grade hydrogen peroxide; remove algae and debris weekly.
-
Check Pumps & Flow: Ensure recirculation and oxygenation systems run smoothly; inspect for leaks, loose fittings, and clogged tubing weekly.
-
Inspect Roots & Plants: Weekly inspect root health (white, firm) and trim dead tissue; early detection prevents root rot.
-
Prevent Algae Growth: Use opaque covers or light-blocking materials on reservoirs to inhibit algae.
