5. When Seeds Germinate
Once your seeds have sprouted, typically within 10 days, follow these steps:
5.1 Remove the Domes
Carefully remove the protective domes from the seedlings to allow them better access to light and air.
5.2 Add Nutrient Solution
Add fresh water to the reservoir and then introduce the nutrient solution.
5.3 A+B Plant Food Mixing Instructions
Properly mix the nutrient solutions A and B with water. For example, use 200ml of solution A and 20ml of solution B per 22-24 liters of water. Ensure thorough mixing.
Planting Tips
- Germination: Generally, keep the top of the plants about 4-6 inches from the grow light.
- Pruning/Harvesting: Pruning roots can be beneficial for plant health.
- General: Be aware that plant growth is influenced by seasons, cycles, and regional factors.
Precautions for Planting
- Pump Noise: An abnormal sound from the pump may indicate air in the pump; ensure the water tank is not empty.
- Water Level: Always maintain an adequate water level in the tank, as a low level can affect pump operation.
- Plant Health: If plants appear dead or are growing poorly, remove them and disinfect the area to prevent issues with other plants.
