Origin XXL 20 Complete Hydroponic System – 20 x 6L Pots for Massive Yields

The Complete Hydroponic System Origin XXL 20 (20 x 6L) is the ultimate beast for growers who want to fill a 1.20m tent to the brim and forget about the hassle of manual watering. This active hydro system combines the precision of drip irrigation with the flexibility of pots, guaranteeing you explosive growth and heavier harvests with half the effort compared to traditional soil growing.

Why your current watering routine is holding you back

Let's be real: watering 20 plants by hand in a tight indoor space is a nightmare. You have to contort your body to reach the back corners, you spill water everywhere, and it takes forever. Plus, in soil, the wet-dry cycle is slow, meaning your plants spend half their time waiting for nutrients and the other half drowning in them.

This manual slavery doesn't just hurt your back; it hurts your yields. Inconsistent watering leads to stress, nutrient lockouts, and uneven growth. You end up with a canopy that looks like a rollercoaster rather than a uniform sea of green, and you waste hours of your life playing "janitor" instead of being a master grower.

The Origin XXL 20 flips the script entirely. By automating the feeding process with a precision timer and a 150-liter reservoir, your plants get exactly what they need, exactly when they need it. This constant access to oxygenated nutrient solution turns your plants into metabolic machines, eating and growing non-stop while you just sit back and watch them thrive.

What it feels like to grow with the Origin XXL 20

Switching to this system feels like upgrading from a bicycle to a Ferrari. The first thing you'll notice is the speed. Because the roots have unrestricted access to oxygen and food, the vegetative stage is drastically reduced. You will see new leaves unfolding daily, and the stems thicken up almost visibly. It gives you a sense of "pro" control; you are no longer guessing if they are thirsty—you know the system has it covered.

Emotionally, it’s pure peace of mind. You can fill the massive tank and leave for a weekend getaway without worrying if your girls are drying out. The sound of the pump engaging is quiet and reassuring, a rhythmic reminder that your garden is on autopilot. When flowering hits, the 6-liter pots are the perfect size to support heavy colas without wasting substrate, making you feel efficient and smart about your resource management.

How to squeeze the experience to the max

To get the monster yields this system is capable of, you need to dial in a few parameters. Here is how to run it like a boss:

• Substrate Choice: While you can use soil or coco, using clay pebbles (expanded clay) is the best move here. It offers maximum aeration and makes the system virtually impossible to overwater.
• Cycle Timing: If using clay pebbles, set the timer for frequent, short waterings (e.g., 15 mins ON every 2-3 hours during lights on). If using coco, water less frequently.
• Keep it Clean: Use a product like drip cleaner to prevent salt buildup in the lines, ensuring every pot gets the same flow rate.
• Monitor pH/EC: Since this is a recirculating system, pH can fluctuate. Check your reservoir daily with reliable PH meters to keep the nutrient solution in the sweet spot (5.5 - 6.2).
• SOG Method: With 20 plants in 1.2m², this setup is screaming for a Sea of Green. Switch to flower early to avoid overcrowding.

Advantages and benefits in your day-to-day life

• Total Autonomy: The 150L tank means you aren't tied to your grow room every single day.
• Space Efficiency: Designed perfectly for 1.2m x 1.2m tents, maximizing every square centimeter of your light footprint.
• Explosive Roots: The constant oxygenation prevents root rot and builds a massive root ball, which directly translates to bigger buds.
• Versatility: Unlike DWC, if a pump fails (rare), the medium holds moisture, giving you a safety buffer to fix it without losing the crop.
• Less Waste: The recirculation system uses every drop of water and nutrient, saving you money on Cannabis fertilizers in the long run.

How it fits with other products in your set-up

The Origin XXL 20 is the heart of your operation, but it needs the right teammates. It pairs perfectly with high-intensity lighting, such as 600W HPS or, even better, modern LED Grow Tents setups where temperature control is easier, keeping your reservoir water cool. Since the system raises the plants off the floor, ensure your tent has enough vertical height (2m is ideal).

For nutrition, you'll want a clean mineral line specifically designed for hydro. Organic nutrients can clog the drippers if they are too thick, so stick to high-quality mineral ranges found in our Hydroponic and Aeroponic Systems section to keep the system running smooth and odorless.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use soil in this system?

Yes, you can, but it defeats the purpose of a high-speed hydro system. If you use soil, you must use the drippers very sparingly to avoid waterlogging. Coco coir or clay pebbles are much better options for performance.

How often should I change the water in the tank?

It is recommended to do a full reservoir change every 7 to 10 days. This prevents nutrient imbalances and keeps the water fresh. Top up with fresh water and nutrients in between changes.

Is the pump noisy?

Not really. It makes a low hum when active, but it's usually quieter than your extraction fans. If you place the system on a rubber mat, it becomes almost silent.

What size grow tent do I need?

The system dimensions are 115cm x 115cm. It is designed specifically to fit snugly into a 1.2m x 1.2m grow tent.

Personal Experience of Pevgrow’s CEO (Alan)

I've used the Origin (Wilma) systems for years, and the XXL 20 is my go-to for testing clones. When I have a mother plant I love, I cut 20 clones, root them, and throw them in here with clay pebbles. I give them maybe 5 days of veg and flip to flower immediately.

The result is a carpet of buds that is just beautiful to look at. The 6L pots are deceptive; in hydro, 6L acts like 15L of soil because the roots are so efficient. My biggest tip? Put an air stone connected to an air pump inside the nutrient tank. That extra dissolved oxygen makes the plants pray to the light and eat like crazy. It's a low-maintenance workhorse that pays for itself in the first harvest.
