NFT Hydroponics Kit – Frequently Asked Questions

We recommend weekly or bi-weekly nutrient changes

Suitable for leafy vegetables in home, garden and office, such as lettuce, herb, celery, cabbage, etc. The system produces high quality vegetables, herbs, melons and berries – with a yield of 45 days! – More nutritious and tasty is to be delivered directly to system roots as products of soil garden, oxygenated water and nutrients

Lettuce is a top choice for hydroponic gardeners as it requires little space, little attention and you can harvest leaves as it grows. 

After completely sterilizing the entire grow room growers should clean the nutrient solution reservoir. It is done by emptying the reservoir, filling it back up halfway and using a deluded bleach solution for an effective clean, ensuring there is no solid material buildup in the tubing.

Reservoir cleaning is usually done every two to three weeks, but cleaning frequency depends on how busy an operation is. Clogging can also be avoided by opening the valves for a few seconds once a week.

It’s important to keep your nutrient solution at between 65-75 degrees. When temperatures get too high, dissolved oxygen levels go down and create an environment ripe for root rot. Temperatures that get too low will slow down plant growth.

For small reservoirs, aquarium heaters are usually enough to warm up a nutrient solution that is too cold. To combat rising temperatures.

The filter will prevent plant matter and debris from getting into your nutrient reservoir. 

Clean the filter often to reduce the build-up that pests love.
