1 x WaterUps®Square Planter 1 x WaterUps®Wicking Cell 1 x 2L bag of Perlite1 x Inlet Pipe & Cap 1 x Overow Pipe
Approximately 1 square metre of
space to build on.
A sharp knife.
Approximately 17 litres of water.
You will need
2 x 25 litre bags of good quality soil
or potting mix.

1. Cut the hole in the WaterUps®
Cell for the water inlet pipe.
Using a sharp knife cut along the circular
groove around the type on the top of the
WaterUps®Cell as shown in the image
below.
2. Insert the water inlet pipe.
The three tabs on the bottom of the
water inlet pipe must lock into the
three
holes in the top of the WaterUps®
Cell.
Apply some pressure to the inlet pipe as
you insert it, until it clicks into place in
the WaterUps®Cell.
3. Inserting the overow pipe.
Decide where you want the overow pipe
to be in relation to the water inlet pipe
and click the overow pipe into place
on the underside of the WaterUps®Cell.
Note: Take some care in making this
decision because it can be difcult to
remove the overow pipe once it is
clicked into the WaterUps®Cell.
4. Insert the WaterUps®Cell into
the square planter.
Carefully feed the WaterUps®Cell with
the overow pipe attached into the
planter so that the overow pipe goes
through the hole on the side of the
planter. Once the WaterUps®Cell is tted
in the planter place the rubber washer
onto the overow pipe, then screw on
and tighten the nut.
5. Adding perlite to the feet of the
WaterUps®Cell.
Open the 2 litre bag of perlite and
sprinkle some water over the perlite
granules to help stop them from blowing
away. Distribute the perlite evenly into all
four feet of the WaterUps®Cell.
6. Add potting mix or soil to the
planter.
You will now need 2 x 25 litre bags of
good quality potting mix or potting soil to
ll the planter.
For more information please refer to our
Soil Considerations Guide
which you will
nd on our Getting Started page. You
can go to it using the link or QR code at
the bottom of page 1.
7. Watering your planter.
To water your planter simply insert a
garden hose into the inlet pipe and ll
the water reservoir until water starts
owing out of the overow pipe. Replace
the cap when done.
The water reservoir of your WaterUps®
Square Planter will hold 17.6 litres of
water. How often you need to rell the
reservoir will depend on what plants you
are growing, the time of year, and the
amount of natural rainfall that you
receive. However, in our experience,
periods of up to four weeks are
achievable before you will need to rell
your planter.
It is recommended that you allow the
water level in the planter to go down to
at least 1/4 full before relling. This will
assist soil aeration.
To check how much water is in the
reservoir simply use a dipstick or set
up a moisture sensor system.
