Good To Know
Plant Food
Add Liquid Plant Food to the Water Bowl when you first plant your Seed Pod Kit and when the 'Add Plant Food' alert activates, every 2 weeks.
Follow the directions on the Liquid Plant Food bottle for feeding amounts, and top off the water level to 'Fill to Here.'
Touch the Plant Food Added icon on your touchscreen to turn off the alert and reset the Plant Food timer.
Pump
When you first start your garden, your pump is set to run 1 hour every 11 hours, while it is in Germination Mode. After 2 weeks, it shifts automatically to the best pump cycle for the plants in your garden.
There is a 'Test Pump' feature under Menu/Pump.
Watering
Your garden will show when water levels are High, Medium and Low. A 'Low Water' alert will appear when the water level is too low. For best results, keep the water level topped up to the 'Fill to Here.' Do not overflow
Lights
Your AeroGarden has a built-in timer for its Grow Light that automatically provides your plants with the perfect amount of 'sunlight.' As long as your plants get this amount of light, it does not matter what time the light is Off. You can customize the time your light comes On or Off during the day under Menu/Light
