Freestanding Hydroponic Vertical Garden

Description

How To Setup Your Freestanding Hydroponic Vertical Garden

1. Use the reservoir as a container to break apart the Coco Coir with approximately 15 – 20 litres of water.
2. Mix in the supplied perlite.  This will give you a ratio of approximately 80% Coco Coir to 20% Perlite.
3. Fill each vertical garden planter tier with the Coco Coir & Perlite mix.
4.  Make sure the reservoir is now empty and place the centre pole in and then the reservoir lid over the top.
5. Stack the tiered planters on the pole.
6. Open the drain on the reservoir and flush the Coco Coir with water.
7. Close the drain and fill the nutrient reservoir with 6 litres of water.
8. Add the hydroponic nutrient.
9. Place the pump inside the reservoir.
10. Configure the timer if using the electric pump or connect the solar panel & place in direct sunlight if using solar.

What is Hydroponic Vertical Gardening?

Hydroponic vertical gardening is an excellent way to grow quality, nutrient dense herbs, vegetables & fruits.  These plants don’t actually need soil to grow and by controlling the growing medium hydroponics can achieve substantially greater yields on your crops.

The hydroponic nutrients are delivered to the plant root using the automatic watering system.  This means that roots of the plants in your vertical herb garden will spend less time searching for nutrients and can dedicate that energy to herbs, vegetables & fruits you’ll harvest.

What is the Coco Coir in the Vertical Hydroponic System?

The Coco Coir in our DIY hydroponic towers is essentially the growing medium that is the substitute for standard soil.  Our organic Coco Coir is made from coconut husk.   Coco Coir is excellent for water retention and has considerable anti-fungal properties that will eliminate many of the issues that growers find with soil borne diseases.

You’ll recieve a compressed block that will expand by up to 8 times in volume and even when completely soaked it will still contain more than 20% air.  Additionally the Coco helps maintain a PH range between 6 – 6.8 which is another reason why this is on of the best vertical hydroponic systems on the market.

How is the hydroponic nutrient used?

Our vertical hydroponic system is shipped with a 2 part (A & B) nutrient system.  The convenience of our hydroponic nutrients is that they’re designed to facilitate every stage of plant growth and that removes the need to feed the plants specific nutrients for the growth & bloom stages.

In order to apply the nutrients it’s a simple as filling the 1.25 litre supplied nutrient bottles with water and shake well until the mixture has dissolved.  The correct amount of nutrient is 5ml per litre of water.  The calculation for the 60 litre recirculating reservoir is 300ml of each nutrient every fortnight.  The exception to this rule is that if you’re growing from seedlings the dose should be halved until the seedlings are large enough.
