4. Vandstandsovervågning

Monitor the water level using the intuitive water level indicator on the side of the tank. Ensure the water level remains above the minimum mark to prevent the pump from running dry.

Opretholdelse

  • Vandpåfyldning: Check the water level daily and refill as needed, typically once a week, to maintain optimal hydration for your plants. Always ensure the water level is above the minimum mark.
  • Næringsstofopfyldning: Follow the instructions provided with your hydroponic nutrients for replenishment frequency. This usually involves adding nutrients with each water refill or every few weeks.
  • Pumpe rengøring: If the pump's performance decreases or it stops working, disconnect the power and carefully remove the pump from the tank. Clean any debris or mineral buildup from the pump impeller and housing. Reassemble and test.
  • System rengøring: Periodically, especially between growth cycles, empty the water tank and clean it thoroughly to prevent algae growth and mineral buildup.
  • Justering af lyspanel: Adjust the height of the LED light panel as your plants grow to maintain an optimal distance for light exposure. The extendable lamp post allows for easy height adjustment.
