We suggest a weekly maintenance check on
your pH level as it will increase over time.
For more info on adjusting your pH,
go to lettucegrow.com/ph.
Now that you’ve assembled your Farmstand (and lights if you’re
growing indoors) and received your seedlings, it’s time to start
growing! We’ll show you how in a few easy steps.
Remove the tank cap and fill the tank with water using
a garden hose or watering can until the water level
reaches the bottom of the tank opening.
Add 4 scoops of Nutrient A to the full tank of water
using a 1 Tbsp scoop and stir thoroughly. Separately add
4 scoops of Nutrient B using the other 1 Tbsp scoop and
stir thoroughly. This is the initial dosage only. For your
weekly maintenance, see the dosage guidelines located
on the back of each bag or check out our app. You can
store your scoops in the bag with the nutrients.
Now check and adjust the water’s pH to ensure your
plants can optimally absorb the nutrients.
Fill the test bottle with 5 mL of water from the tank.
Add 5 drops of pH test solution to the water and place
the cap on the bottle. Give it a swish and match your
water to the color chart included with your pH Test Kit.
The ideal range is 5.5-6, but don’t stress if it is a little
over or a little under.
If your pH is too high, add 1 scoop of pH down to the
tank using the 1 tsp scoop. Stir the tank reservoir, rinse
the Test Kit bottle with fresh water, and re-test after the
pump has been running for a few minutes. If you have
hard water, it is common to add multiple scoops.
Plug in your Farmstand.

Note: It is helpful to have your pump running when you
mix nutrients and pH down to help them dissolve quicker.
