Boum water tank
The tank holds up to 35 liters of water. But the real magic lies in the solar-powered control. It serves as the tank lid and is the brain of the system. It waters your plants daily with a built-in pump without refilling. Outdoors, one tank full lasts for several weeks, indoors even for several months! So you don't have to worry about your plants while you're on vacation - Boum will take care of them. And thanks to the Wi-Fi connection, you can keep an eye on your plants from anywhere. Sensors measure water consumption and climate and send notifications in the Boum app so that you and your plants can get through the year happily.
Boum planters
The designer planters from Boum, available as pots and balcony boxes, have a unique feature: capillary wicks that draw water from the pot's built-in reservoir, ensuring optimal soil moisture. With the Boum planters, you can grow houseplants, trees, vegetables, herbs, flowers and shrubs - with beautiful results that surpass anything you can achieve with conventional pots! The pots are connected to the water tank via an unobtrusive, easy-to-install hose and are thus supplied with water completely autonomously for several weeks. Discreet cable ducts allow invisible hoses even inside the room. The Boum pots are made of 80% recycled mineral-plastic mixture with a hand finish, are decorative, shock- and break-proof, easy to move, UV and frost-resistant.

Amazing results
Our customers agree: together with the optimised soil and the adapted plants, the Boum system delivers unique results.
Boum or drip irrigation
Why is the Boum system better than conventional drip irrigation?
Quite simple.
The control system measures the water level in the water tank and pumps water into our containers. From there, the water is drawn up into the soil using wicks. The soil moisture regulates itself according to the plant's water requirements and forms an optimum moisture gradient for good rooting. Completely self-regulating. Even without electricity and water connection.
Boum App
Your mobile phone is all you need to control the Boum system and keep an eye on it from anywhere. The app is included with the Boum system - at no extra cost. It tells you when you should next refill the tank, fertilise your plants or protect them from heat or cold. So that nothing can go wrong.
And as if that wasn't enough, the app gives you exclusive access to our specialists at the touch of a button, who will be happy to answer your questions and solve your problems with a friendly smile.
Carefree holidays
The Boum system takes care of your plants independently for several weeks, even when you are not at home. So you no longer have to ask the neighbours for help. With the app, you can see at any time whether everything is OK. And when you come home after your holiday, a green paradise awaits you instead of dried-out plants.
