Operating Instructions

Using your GARANTIA ERGO QUADRO 2 L 75 Raised Bed is straightforward, especially with its integrated FLORA water-saving system.

Planting

Select plants suitable for raised bed gardening. Consider companion planting for optimal growth. The large cultivation area allows for a variety of vegetables, herbs, and flowers.

Watering with FLORA System

The FLORA water-saving system helps maintain consistent moisture levels for your plants, reducing the frequency of watering. Follow these guidelines:

• Initially, water thoroughly to establish plants and fill the water reservoir of the FLORA system.
• Monitor soil moisture. The FLORA system provides water from below, but top watering may still be necessary, especially for new seedlings or during very dry periods.
• Avoid overwatering, as the system is designed to optimize water usage.
