Before you can start growing, you need to fill the smartTRAY with soil. The amount of soil differs depending on the size of your growBOX:
XS | S | M | L |
50l smartSOIL | 100l smartSOIL | 150l smartSOIL | 250l smartSOIL |
Our smartSOIL is the perfect organic soil for your cultivation. It contains all the nutrients and microorganisms your plants need – without any fertilizer. You pour the appropriate amount of smartSOIL into your tray and add water. The amount of water depends on the size of your tray and is 10 percent of the soil.
XS | S | M | L |
5l water | 10l water | 15l water | 25l water |
Mix the smartSOIL and the water thoroughly. Then cover the tray and leave the smartSOIL to rest for 14 days. During this resting period, fungi and bacteria multiply so that they can start doing their actual job – converting nutrients.
You can use smartSOIL in the same way when growing in fabric pots – the process remains the same as when growing in trays:
- Pour the required amount of smartSOIL into your fabric pot
- Add the required amount of water
- Mix smartSOILl and water carefully
- Cover your fabric pot and leave the smartSOIL to rest for seven to ten days
- During this time, fungi and bacteria can multiply optimally and begin to convert nutrients.
During the dormant period, allow your seedlings to germinate. You can find out more about this in the “Germination” chapter.
