- Connect Grow Lights: Use the connection cables to link the grow light panels. Ensure all connections are firm.
- Repeat for Remaining Tiers: Continue assembling the remaining five shelves and installing grow lights as desired for each tier.
- Cable Management: Use the nylon zip ties to neatly organize and secure all power cables along the support poles.
- Place PP Pads: Position the PP water-resistant pads on each shelf to protect the grow lights from water and provide a stable base for plant pots.
- Final Check: Verify that all shelves are level, all connections are secure, and the stand is stable.

5. Operating Instructions
5.1. Grow Light Operation
The VEVOR Plant Stand is equipped with six LED grow light panels, providing a 400-780nm full-spectrum light with a warm 3000K color temperature. This simulates natural sunlight, supporting plants through all growth stages.
- Power On/Off: Connect the grow lights to the mechanical timer, and then plug the timer into a standard power outlet. The lights will turn on according to the timer settings.
- Light Intensity: The lights provide consistent intensity. Adjust the distance between the lights and your plants by using the adjustable threaded support components (if installed) to optimize light exposure.
