Poppy Pods

More than meets the eye,
way more.

Small at the plant. Sophisticated in the system.

restricted release path
known charge volume
plant-level dose
Engineered Delivery

Years of irrigation experience, redesigned into one small Pod.

Poppy Pods are not ordinary emitters. They are part of a new watering architecture built around known delivery, short pulse events, and plant-level distribution. Instead of relying on long runtime guesses, each Pod helps create a measurable dose at the root zone.

The result is a system that can be configured, calculated, and eventually controlled automatically by Pulse — turning irrigation from a timer-based habit into a structured delivery system.

Engineered Around Plant Size

Small plants need precision.
Large plants need capacity.

Poppy Pods are sized as a family so the system can preserve 360° distribution while reducing unnecessary pulse cycles on larger plants and trees.

S

Pod S

1 oz · 35mm × 30mm ID

Typically 3 Pods around a 1 gallon plant.

M

Pod M

2 oz · 44mm × 42mm ID

Typically 4 Pods around a 5 gallon shrub.

L

Pod L

4 oz · 56mm × 52mm ID

Typically 4–6 Pods around a 15 gallon shrub.

XL

Pod XL

6 oz · 65mm × 68mm ID

Typically 6 Pods around a 24" box tree.

Root-Zone Coverage

More volume without losing distribution.

Larger Pods increase the dose per pulse, while multiple placements continue to surround the plant instead of concentrating water in one spot.

1 Gallon

3 × Pod S
3 oz per event

5 Gallon

4 × Pod M
8 oz per event

15 Gallon

5 × Pod L
20 oz per event

36 oz per event

Charge + Release

Designed around pulse events, not runtime guessing.

During a pulse, the Pod charges. Internal architecture manages pressure, venting, and release behavior so water can be delivered as a measured plant-level dose after the event.

01Charge

Pulse fills the chamber.

02Isolate

Pressure-state behavior controls unwanted release.

03Vent

Air escapes efficiently as the Pod fills.

04Release

Stored water moves gradually into the root zone.

The Drip Myth

Why traditional drip falls short.

Point-Source Watering

Typical drip often waters in one small area, encouraging uneven and shallower root development.

Mixed Emitters = Guesswork

Different emitter rates and field changes make it hard to know what each plant is actually getting.

Pressure Inconsistency

Real-world systems rarely behave like lab conditions. Pressure swings create delivery problems fast.

Advantages

Why Poppy Pods are different.

Known Delivery

Pod count translates into a clearer watering dose at each plant.

360° Root Coverage

Water can be distributed around the plant instead of concentrated at one point.

No Runtime Guessing

The system is built around pods and pulse events rather than long arbitrary timer runs.

Water Savings

Make every drop count.

Poppy aims to reduce wasted water through more targeted delivery, less runoff, less overspray, and less dependence on long runtime guesses.

Savings Drivers
• More targeted plant-level delivery
• Reduced runoff potential
• Reduced evaporation compared with broad spray patterns
• Fewer long, arbitrary runtime schedules
