Set-up instructions
If you are not using a holiday watering kit then you can insert the 21mm black grommet
into the holiday watering kit hole. If you have purchased a holiday watering kit then you
do not need to use the grommet. Instead refer to the holiday watering kit instructions.
• Place your SmartReservoir on an even surface.
• Place the Feeder Tray on top of the SmartReservoir.
• If you have a Chilligrow, insert the black top up bung into the hole. This hole is
for topping up your SmartReservoir. At this point DO NOT add any water into the
SmartReservoir.
• If you have a Quadgrow, place the access cover on the open end of the
SmartReservoir.
• Wet one of the FeederMats.
• Insert the FeederMat through the hole into
the bottom of one of the pots until the pointed
tip is just below the top of the pot (see image)
• Insert the FeederMat through the hole in the
Feeder Tray and sit the pot in position. Ensure
the FeederMat is touching the bottom of
the reservoir.
• Repeat this with all pots.
• Fill the pots with compost while taking care
to keep the FeederMat upright.
• Firm the compost down around the FeederMat
ensuring there is good contact between the
FeederMat and the compost.
• Make a hole in the compost large enough for
your plant. Add your plant. Firm the compost
down gently around the plant to settle the compost.
• Water well using a watering can with a rose until the
compost is moist but not saturated.
IMPORTANT: Do not add water to the SmartReservoir at this point.
Feeding and watering
IMPORTANT:
• Add water to your nutrient bottles as indicated on the bottles.
• Once the top of the compost is dry to the touch (a few days to a week) fill your
SmartReservoir with water and nutrients using the dosage rates below.
• DO NOT mix the nutrients together. It is important to add water to the watering can
and then add the ‘A’ nutrients to the water followed by the ‘B’ nutrients using the
dosage rates below.
