The MicroQuad Planter is designed to ensure 4 individual 5x5 inch trays of Microgreens have the optimum amount of water and light to provide you with a steady stream of fresh Microgreens all year long. To accomplish this the MicroQuad Planter uses a dual timer for the lights and the water pump.
- The light assembly provides plenty of natural colored light which can be programmed to start and stop whenever you like although we recommend 12 to 18 hours of light per day
- The water pump runs for one minute every 6 hours to ensure the grow media is always damp and that the plants have the water they need
The MicroQuad Planter includes a starter kit which contains enough seeds and media to grow around 20 5x5 trays of microgreens from seeds to harvest. After that all you need to continue growing is more media and seeds which you can get from us or many other suppliers. Our trays are heavy duty and should last you for years.
The water reservoir holds enough water for one week, after that you should either add more water or replace the water.
In order to help ensure optimal growth and harvest most microgreens require a 4 day blackout period for optimal germination and consistent growth.
