Dosing syringe 60 ml

A 60 ml dosing syringe for larger doses and for transferring out of a bottle without spillage.

Drawing without contaminating your bottle

A bottle of nutrient often lasts a whole season, and whatever you leave in it stays there just as long. That makes how you draw from it more important than most growers think.

What goes wrong: you use the same syringe for two products, or you put a syringe holding a little water into an undiluted concentrate. In the first case you bring together components that must not mix undiluted. In the second you introduce water into a bottle that was not formulated for it, which with some biological products starts spoilage.

The practice that prevents it:

• One syringe per product, with the name written on it.
• Shake the syringe dry before drawing, or let it drain. No water droplets into the bottle.
• Draw over the reservoir, not over the bottle, so a falling drop lands in the water rather than on the cap.
• Close the bottle again straight away. Air and light degrade many products.

This 60 ml size also suits thicker, viscous products. Those move slowly through a narrow opening, and a larger barrel with a wider tip fills faster and empties more completely.

Technical Specifications:

• Capacity: 60 ml
• Use: measuring, dosing and transferring nutrient and additives
• Method: draw from the container, inject into the water

Frequently asked questions

Can I use it to draw off a reservoir?
For a small sample, yes, for instance to measure. For larger amounts a measuring jug is more practical.

Does it work with thick, viscous products?
Better than a small syringe. Draw slowly, giving the liquid time to follow.

How should I store it?
Rinsed clean and with the plunger pushed in, so the seal is not left stretched.
