Portable Osmosis Pack – 0.01 Micron Ultrafiltration Water Filter

The Portable Osmosis Pack is your ultimate solution for obtaining high-quality water in any location, instantly transforming questionable sources into safe, crystal-clear liquid without the need for electricity or pumps. This compact ultrafiltration system is designed to remove up to 99.9% of bacteria, sediments, and impurities down to 0.01 microns, making it the perfect tool for guerrilla growers, outdoor adventurers, and anyone who understands that water quality is the foundation of a successful harvest.

Is water quality ruining your harvest or breaking your back?

Let’s be real: carrying 8-liter jugs of water to a remote guerrilla spot or a difficult-to-access grow room is a nightmare. You don't know if you're more tired from the weight or stressed about the quality of the tap water you're using, which is often loaded with chlorine that kills the beneficial microlife in your substrate. You want professional results, but the logistics of water are holding you back.

If you ignore this, the consequences are clear: back pain from hauling weight, risk of being spotted due to frequent trips, and plants that suffer from nutrient lockout or root rot due to dirty water. It’s frustrating to spend money on top-tier genetics only to have them fail because the water wasn't right. You feel like you're working harder, not smarter.

The solution is this Portable Osmosis Pack. It allows you to filter water directly on-site, whether from a river, a public tap, or a rain barrel. It follows a simple, phase-based process that guarantees you have clean, pathogen-free water ready for your cannabis fertilizers, ensuring your plants thrive without you breaking a sweat.

Phase 1: Preparing the ground

Before you start filtering, you need to assess your environment and your source. This isn't just about plugging in a tube; it's about ensuring the longevity of your filter and the safety of your plants.

• Check the source: Look for the clearest water possible. If drawing from a river, avoid stagnant puddles with oil slicks or heavy algae.
• Pre-filter if necessary: If the water is very muddy, use a cloth or mesh to remove large debris before it hits the unit to prevent clogging.
• Inspect the kit: Ensure the tubes are not kinked and the connections are tight.
• Plan the container: Have a clean tank or bottle ready to catch the purified water.

Phase 2: Setting up the product

Getting the Portable Osmosis Pack ready is fast. Since it doesn't use electricity, you rely on gravity or manual pressure, so setup is key.

1. Unpack and identify: Locate the inlet (dirty water) and outlet (clean water) ports on the filter body.
2. Connect the hoses: Attach the silicone tubes firmly to the respective ports. Make sure there are no air leaks.
3. Prime the system: If it's the first use, run a few liters of water through it to flush out any manufacturing dust or loose carbon particles.
4. Positioning: If using gravity, place the dirty water source higher than the filter and the clean water container.

Phase 3: Use / filtering step by step

Now comes the magic. Watch how cloudy water turns into a clear resource for your hydroponic and aeroponic systems or soil grow.

1. Start the flow: Submerge the inlet tube into the water source. Use the manual pump (if included) or gravity to start the flow.
2. Monitor the output: The first few seconds might sputter, but then a steady stream of clear water should appear.
3. Check for leaks: Ensure no dirty water is dripping into your clean container.
4. Adjust flow rate: Don't force it too hard; let the ultrafiltration membrane do its work at a steady pace.
5. Fill your tank: Collect the amount needed for your irrigation.
6. Stop: Lift the inlet tube out of the water to stop the siphon effect.

Phase 4: Closing, maintenance and learnings

To make this gear last for years, you can't just throw it back in the bag wet. Proper maintenance prevents mold and keeps the flow rate high.

Backflushing is mandatory: Push clean water backwards through the filter (from outlet to inlet) using the provided syringe or mechanism. You will see dirty water come out of the inlet—this is all the gunk you just saved your plants from drinking. Do this after every use.

Dry it out: Shake off excess water and let it air dry before storing it for a long period. This prevents biofilm buildup inside the membrane.

Advantages of following this flow instead of improvising

• Consistency: You always know your water is free of chlorine and pathogens.
• Stealth: No more hiking with heavy jugs; you travel light and blend in.
• Plant Health: Prevents root rot and pythium by blocking bacteria.
• Longevity: Proper backflushing means you won't have to buy a new filter every month.
• Versatility: Useful for your grow, camping trips, or emergency survival kits.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this filter lower the EC (PPM) to zero?

No, this is an ultrafiltration system (0.01 micron), not a high-pressure reverse osmosis system. It removes bacteria, sediments, and chlorine, but it retains dissolved minerals. This is actually great for soil growing as it keeps calcium and magnesium, but if you need 0.0 EC, you'd need a different setup.

How long does the filter last?

It depends on how dirty the water is. Generally, it can filter hundreds of liters. If you notice the flow rate drops significantly even after backflushing, it's time to replace the unit.

Can I use it with nutrient water?

It is recommended to filter the plain water first, and then add your nutrients. Filtering mixed nutrient solution can clog the membrane and remove organic components of the fertilizer.

Is it difficult to pump manually?

Not at all. The resistance is low, and the design is ergonomic. It's much easier than carrying 20 liters of water on your back!

Personal Experience of Pevgrow’s CEO (Alan)

"I remember my early days of guerrilla growing in the mountains. I used to hike 5km with two 8-liter jugs in a backpack. My back was destroyed, and I looked incredibly suspicious to anyone I passed. Discovering portable ultrafiltration was a game-changer. Now, I just hike with this little pack in my pocket and use the stream near the spot."

"One mistake I made at first was forgetting to backflush. After three trips, the flow was a trickle. Once I started backflushing immediately after use, the same filter lasted me two full seasons. It's the best investment for the stealth grower."
