General Hydroponics 6-Gallon Container Spigot

The General Hydroponics 6-Gallon Container Spigot provides a convenient way to dispense liquid nutrients from compatible bulk containers. Instead of repeatedly lifting and tipping a heavy nutrient jug, growers can dispense a controlled amount directly into a measuring container or nutrient reservoir.

Designed for General Hydroponics 6-gallon containers, this compact dispensing accessory helps simplify nutrient preparation while reducing messy pours, spills, and product waste.

Key Benefits

• Easier nutrient dispensing: Draw liquid directly from a bulk container without repeatedly lifting and pouring the entire jug.
• Controlled flow: Makes it easier to dispense nutrients into measuring cups, pitchers, and reservoirs.
• Cleaner mixing area: Helps reduce drips, splashing, and nutrient residue around the container opening.
• Less physical handling: Particularly useful when working with heavy, partially full, or frequently used nutrient containers.
• Compact design: Adds convenient dispensing capability without requiring a separate transfer pump.
• General Hydroponics compatibility: Designed for the manufacturer’s 6-gallon nutrient containers.

Compatibility

This spigot is intended for use with General Hydroponics 6-gallon containers, including compatible bulk containers used for FloraSeries nutrients and other General Hydroponics liquids.

Other nutrient jugs may use different openings, threads, seals, or container designs. Confirm fit before attempting installation on a non-General Hydroponics container.

Installation and Use

1. Confirm that the container has the correct factory-designed opening or connection for the spigot.
2. Place the sealed container on a stable surface before installation.
3. Install the spigot according to the container manufacturer’s directions, ensuring that it is seated evenly and securely.
4. Avoid overtightening, which may damage plastic threads, fittings, or seals.
5. Position the container securely with the spigot accessible and a measuring vessel beneath the outlet.
6. Open the valve gradually to control the flow, then close it completely after dispensing.
7. Check the connection periodically for drips or leakage.

Care and Handling

Wipe away nutrient residue after use and keep the outlet clean. If transferring the spigot between different products, rinse and dry it thoroughly to help prevent cross-contamination. Always follow the nutrient manufacturer’s handling and storage instructions.

Spigot only. Nutrient container, measuring tools, tubing, and liquid nutrients are sold separately.
