How Do I Run a Device Cycle to Cycle the Water Tanks?
When you see a blinking Green indicator light, it is time to cycle your water and nutrients.
- Verify that your Drain Tank is empty and in place.
- Verify that your Fresh Water Tank is full.
- Push the Indicator light for 1 second. This will start the cycle process and you will hear pumps running inside the machine.
Indicator Light Guide
- Solid Yellow: The grow tank is draining out the old water, and new water and nutrients are coming in.
- Blinking Blue: You need to add water to the Fresh Water Tank before continuing to cycle.
- Blinking Yellow: The cycle is complete and the Drain Tank has water — you need to empty it. If you'd like, you can use this water on other plants.
The process will take approximately 40 minutes. You don't really need to do anything during this time.
Note: You can always start a cycle by pressing the button for 1 second. We recommend cycling the water once a week — the blinking Green indicator light is a reminder.
