That site does show an expensive injection system. That is very similar to
what I am going to design, however, the price will be much lower. All
that stuff that they talk about (316 stainless, viton, teflon, 3 phase, fan
cooled, positive displacement, piston pump) is all very common things.
What they are selling is a complete system with mounting hardware and a
glorified agitated tank.
A simple chemical metering pump will do wonders. Their system can do some
pumping "gpm" if needed. But, you must remember if you are watering,
automatically 5 days a week, you can inject the fertilizer at a much slower
rate each day. Slow and consistent wins the contests. I would like to
feed my plants daily with a little instead of a big blast once a week.
