Water the cutting before transplanting. Place the rooted cutting into
the pot and fill the remaining void with substrate.
SYSTEM OPERATION
Filling the system
Use a hose pipe to fill the tank. Add the required amount of
nutrients. After the first feed, top up the tank as some water will
remain in the system.
The AERO™ system uses the air culture technique in which the plants
roots are suspended in the air. This technique requires feeding little
and often.
RAIN™ Brain
When you select a "Run -Time" position, the RAIN™ pump will
engage. When the selected "Run-Time" expires the system will
remain idle until the next feed cycle which is selected by the
"Frequency".
Frequency Dial
This is how often you require a feed cycle.
Run-time Dial
This is the amount of time that the RAIN™ pump will run. These
34
pumps have a high flow rate so the "Run-Time" is normally around
"30-60 seconds".
A suggested setting for the AERO™ system is 30 seconds on, 30-60
minutes off. If you do not want your plants to be watered at night you
can simply plug the RAIN™ Brain into a segment timer and select the
off period. We advise having one feed in the middle of the "off" period.
Warning: The 'ON' setting should only be used for cleaning
the system. If left on permanently, pots can overfill.
