Additional Information
1. DO NOT remove fabric pots during the "Fill" cycle, as flooding will occur.
2. DO NOT fill fabric pots with grow medium or add plants while the fabric pot is inside
the grow bucket. Grow medium may spill into buckets and clog tubing.
3. DO NOT attempt to service the Brain Controller, there are no serviceable parts. If the
Brain Controller is not working properly, call toll free at (888) 621-0062.
4. DO NOT top off water into the reservoir during the fill cycle. Overflow will occur after
the water is pumped back during the drain cycle.
5. Using a small amount of soap or vegetable oil will ease tubing and grommet insertions.
6. Set up the reservoir, controller, and buckets all on the same flat surface.
7. Always place fabric pots with plants into grow buckets to prevent spilling of medium into
buckets.
8. Manually soak each pot to prevent floating during the first fill cycle.
9. Make sure to check your power source for proper voltage prior to plugging in your
Brain Controller.
10. Make sure all tubing is securely connected to connector tees and elbows past the
barbs to prevent leaks.
11. Allow the pumps to release air built up prior to using the first time.
12. Tie cords inside the Brain Controller to prevent blocking of sensors.
13. Drain and flush system every 2 weeks for best results.
14. Change the nutrient solution in the reservoir every 7-10 days.
15. Check for obstructions in tubing if buckets are not filling all the way.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Question:
How long should the system stay filled?
Answer:
Allow just enough time for the buckets to fill completely before draining.
Question:
When should I fill the reservoir?
Answer:
Top off the reservoir as much as possible. The nutrients will become too
concentrated if the water level falls below . Wait 30 minutes after the latest
drain cycle to fill the reservoir. Overflow can occur if you fill the reservoir
during the drain cycle.
Question:
When should I add nutrients?
Answer:
dd nutrients every time you fill the reservoir.

Question:
Should I check and adjust the pH level?
Answer:
Check the pH level every day. The pH should stay close to 6.3.
Question:
Should I drain and flush the system?
Answer:
Yes you should drain the system and replace the nutrients every 2 weeks.
Do this by filling the reservoir half way with water, fill the buckets, then drain
the water back out and discard the water in the reservoir.
Question:
Do I need a larger Brain Controller if I add more buckets?
Answer:
No the same Brain Controller can be used for up to 36 buckets.
Question:
Can I add more than 36 buckets?
Answer:
Yes but it is not recommended. It will take too long to fill and drain the
buckets. The longer the plants are submerged, the less oxygen the roots get
which slows down the plant's growth.
Run an additional Brain Controller if you need to add more than 36 buckets.
Question:
What size plants can I grow?
Answer:
Without a support system up to 5 feet is the limit. A trellis will increase the
size minimum indefinitely.
Question:
Can I grow different types of plants in the same system?
Answer:
Yes but you may have to adjust the watering times to reach a compromise to
suit all the different types of plants.
