Advice
• Pot up your plants, water through, then allow your plants to establish in the pots for a period of 7 to 10 days
before turning your system on. This will encourage a stronger and healthier root system.
• Always raise your tank to a minimum of 150mm above the highest AQUAvalve and re-fill the tank when
there is approximately a 1/3 of the solution left - NEVER ALLOW THE TANK TO RUN EMPTY.
• For best results, we recommend mineral fertilisers. Do not use organic fertilisers, as they have a tendency to
block small pipe work.
• Clean all substrate from the bottom and sides of the pots before placing in each tray.
This will ensure your system is clean from the start.
• Always use free draining substrates, for example: soil/perlite, coco/perlite, soil/clay pebbles,
coco/clay pebbles, rockwool/clay pebbles.
