6 GOLDEN RULES FOR A BEAUTIFUL GROWTH
Not too close, not too far. 5cm between your plant and the light would be ideal. Too close means
1
that the leaves will burn, too far will cause them to lose energy and they will stop growing.
A little mold and algae never hurt anyone. We've created the best possible environment for
2
your plants. Because of this, it's difficult to blame algae or small mushrooms that decide to
settle in your pod or on your floaters. Do not panic, they don't harm your plants and won't affect
the quality of your harvests. To clean the algae off the floaters, use a sponge and some soap.
Not all plants have the same light necessities. Your plants have different needs in terms of
3
light cycle and intensity (check out the growing guide that comes with every pod or our app to
find out more). These lil' fellas also need a good night's rest, so avoid leaving Nano Garden on
at night and let them follow the natural day cycle.
Insects do love plants, and this is how to get rid of them! In general, a bit of sand or clay
4
sprinkled onto the pod's surface will keep flies away. For insects found on leaves, try spraying
the latter with a soft soap and room temperature water mixture (5ml to 100ml ratio). While
doing so, take your plant aside.
Your indoor garden is autonomous. But not your plants! Take care of them. Chives need a good
5
cut from time to time and Basil hates it when you tear his leaves away. Mini-tomatoes like to
be ruffled and Mint needs to be harvested frequently. Each plant has its peculiarities, learn
to tame them by reading the growing guides coming with each pod or the tips in the Prêt à
Pousser app.
Your plants love their nutrients, so don't change their water! The precious minerals are released
6
into the water, so if you change it, there won't be any nutrients left. When the floater goes
down, simply add some fresh water.
