Product Description

VermisTerra HydroSpiral Tube is a mesh, deep root watering tube which installs into the ground near the base of the plant. It includes a 1 GPH emitter that slowly drips, allowing moisture to seep into difficult to permeate soil. Great solution for growing in compact soil, clay soil, and hot and dry environments. Water, oxygen and fertilizer does straight to the root zone feeding roots and soil. Encourage roots to grow deeper by bottom watering.
Partner this tube with VermisTerra soil inoculant worm tea and Vitality to boost beneficial life in soil, enhance nutrient bioavailability, protect and feed roots. This efficient way to water plants: reduces water lost to evaporation and runoff. The anti-clog mesh of HydroSpiral also allows for more oxygen aeration to the root zone, increasing root hairs, feeder roots, and bolstering soil life, leading to more lush and healthy plants. Stands out from PVC, homemade, and other brands that fill with sand with each use. Hydrospiral will not fill with sand, ensuring it continues to benefit your soil with water and oxygen.
Increase water, oxygen flow to roots. Make plants grow like crazy.

Enhance Soil and Root Health = Phenomenal Growth
- Bottom water and efficiently water your roots, while simultaneously training roots to grow Deeper, in search for moisture below! See lush growth and less plant stress. Stop wasting water to evaporation and runoff.
- Expect greater tree stability, higher transplant survival rates, and healthier, long-term growth.Less water on the surface, reducing weed growth
- Home-made and PVC tubes fill with sand each time you water. Hydrospiral's fine mesh design prevents tube from filling up with and, soil and silt.
- Increases air pruning of roots- splitting roots, increasing root hairs for nutrients and water absorption. Air-pruned roots sprout hundreds of root hairs which increase surface area for better water and nutrient absorption.
- Distributes water, nutrients, and oxygen to plant roots- helps with compact and clay soil
- University of Arizona’s School of Plant Sciences conducted a study examining growth, establishment and survival of 48 ash trees transplanted at a Tucson, AZ test site. Their findings:
- Water efficiency is achieved by greatly reducing loss due to evaporation and runoff typical of surface irrigation.
- Deep root watering can increase a tree’s chances of transplant survival.
- Deep root irrigation helps tree and shrub root systems become established
- University test on Ash trees found:
- 48% deeper root growth after 3 months
- 18% greater overall root mass 13 months after planting
- 11% more above ground growth
Efficient Water Usage, Less Waste
- Save on 40% water lost due to evaporation or runoff. Improves water efficiency and minimizes the total water required to water.
- Shallow roots are susceptible to temperature stress. HydroSpiral waters from below, encouraging roots to grow deeper.
- Bottom water to moisturize entire root zone from below.
Improved Oxygen Access For Roots and Living Soil
- HydroSpiral helps plant roots to grow deeper and broader, resulting in greater tree stability, higher survival rates and healthier long-term growth.
- Access oxygen in clay and compacted soils for better function and photosynthesis
- Many transplanted trees and shrubs suffer form low survival rate, mainly due to poor root system establishment.
- HydroSpiral helps to minimize transplant shock
- More oxygen in soil allow probiotics to loosen compact soil and release locked salts and nutrients
Bypass Compact and Clay Soil, Reduce Weeds
- Ensuring oxygen and water are available in clay and compacted soils.
- When weeds don't have access to water, you'll see less weeds.
- Lowering the weed population will save time, money, and chemicals.
- No holes, just fine mesh material. Won't fill with sand the way other brands do.
You'll Love the Clean Design and Lush Results
Oxygen To The Roots
- Oxygen helps boost soil life and photosynthesis. Use with worm tea to enhance and condition soil
- Mesh design air prunes roots- splitting roots, increasing root hairs for nutrients and water absorption. Air-pruned roots sprout hundreds of root hairs which increase surface area for better water and nutrient absorption.
- The fine mesh tube allows soil to dry quickly around it, encouraging feeder roots that absorb water and minerals. Feeder roots can push out farther than the canopy area and increase the root surface area.
- Reduce Root problems: Oxygen in the soil helps promoting healthier plant growth.
Young Trees Grow Deeper Roots
- Save 40% water lost to runoff and evaporation during hottest months
- Help young trees establish deep roots
- Reduce transplant shock
- Revive compacted soil
Easy to Install and Fertilize
- Compatible with any Drip Irrigation System. Just connect to your existing drip irrigation
- Feed your trees vitality and tea liquid fertilizer easily
- Allows water to reach roots without wetting as much surface soil (reducing weed seed growth)
Slow emitters to soak deeply
- Now Includes 1 GPH emitter for slow and deep soaking
- Each tube can reach spread water out at least 5-10 ft diameter with increased run time.
- No need to run emitters to each plant, water the entire bed with 1-2 tubes.
- Train roots to grow downward, and find pockets of moisture
- Anti-clogging mesh keeps sand out. Won't fill with sand like other brands. no need for filtering sock

Anti-Clogging Mesh, Durable Material
- Made from anti-clogging heavy duty PE plastic. No need for extra sock filter.
- The T-type anti-crush thread design is resistant to high compression.
- 0.9 x 1.2 mm sidewall openings made of a high density mesh that minimizes soil entering the tube.
- Will not fill with sand the way home-made DIY PVC tubes do.
- Roots won't fill the tube- they'll air prune inside the tube.
- 10-inch length for most plants, 18-inch in for large trees. Available in 2" and 3" diameters.
- UV Treated to withstand sun and weathering.
- Made from Recycled material, recyclable after use.

Bottom watering encourages roots to grow deeper
Installation Info
- Connect the included 1 GPH emitter to your drip line.
- Drip irrigation run time based on number of gallons of water needed to permeate root zone.
- You may have to dig into the soil to check how far the moisture travels in your particular soil type.
Water Movement, Down, Out, Then Up
- The water will travel down and outward, seeping farther the longer you run the irrigation. Then it wicks back up toward the surface. The top inch will stay dry.
- Allow soil to dry out a few days between watering so roots can breathe.
Removal Cap
- Check debris cap occasionally and remove leaf litter
- Optional: add gravel to pot cap
How Far Does Moisture Reach
- Tests in sandy soil found water can spread up to 5-10 ft outward from tube.
- Water will travel deeper for sandy soil and farther out-wards for clay soils.
- 10" inch length tubes reach the 12" root zone where most feeder roots live
- 18" tubes length tubes for large trees
