Accurate temperature sensor (air probe) - Triggers the supply of heat depending on the sensor reading. This is an air probe which dangles in the air, and should not be inserted into the compost/soil or the base of your propagator. This means you can maintain the right temperature without wasting electricity.
Large vents - The vents in the lid allow condensation to be released preventing dampening-off without having to remove the lid. The lids help retain moisture for your seedlings which helps speedy and healthy germination, but the addition of this vents mean that you can control the humidity of your seedlings to their preference, providing excellent air circulation.

Unheated Vitopod
Use the Vitopod Unheated propagator to harden-off your plants before planting-out. ‘Hardening off’ is the vital process of getting seedlings ready for life outdoors. Without this step it’s too easy to lose plants or have them wilt from the sudden change in conditions between a warm windowsill and a draughty garden.
The Vitopod Unheated propagator can be used outside in a sheltered area or in a greenhouse or polytunnel.

Light Support Kits
Attach lights to your existing Vitopod propagator with these easy to use kits. Available with and without lights.
Using propagation lights helps to encourage fast, healthy growth without legginess.
Our Light Support Kit includes a set of two propagation lights and our Light Support Bracket, which attaches to your Vitopod electric propagator to securely hold lights above the Vitopod lids. When you add a height extension to the Vitopod, simply move the brackets up. The lids can be removed without removing the lights!
The lights are housed in a nanotech-enhanced reflector that reflects 99.9% of previously lost light, increases lumen availability by 300% and diffuses light deep into the plant leaves. The lights are low energy and long-lasting, typically providing 10,000 hours of light.
Vitopod Layers
