Filling your reservoir for the first timeUpdated 3 years ago

The Airgarden base reservoir holds 85 litres of water when filled just below the power cord channel. Complete the following steps to fill it up for the first time only.

Step 1) Fill with water

• Open the access port at the top of the base reservoir and use a hose to fill with cold water to the ‘max fill’ line to the left of the access port (approx 85 litres)
  • Note: if you’re living in an apartment you can purchase an indoor tap adapter and hose

Step 2) Add nutrients

• Add 190-200ml of Part 1 solution and stir well with the spoon provide with your Airgarden. Wait for 1-2 minutes
• Add 190-200ml of Part 2 solution using a separate measuring cup and stir well again
• Note: when maintaining your Airgarden, you’ll add 2ml of each nutrient for every litre of water added

Step 3) After 3 minutes, test and balance your PH levels
