Getting Started
Welcome to effortless, homegrown freshness!
Setting up your Orbit Aeroponics Tower is quick and simple. Follow these steps to begin your journey to healthy, pesticide-free greens:
Step 1: Unbox & Inspect
Step 2: Assemble Your Tower
Step 3: Fill the Reservoir
-
Fill the reservoir with clean water.
-
Add the recommended nutrient solution for leafy greens (check the manual for exact measurements).
Step 4: Power Up
-
If you ordered a timer switch with your tower, set the timer to ensure the pump runs at the recommended intervals (e.g., 15 minutes on, in every 2 hrs). This helps optimize water and nutrient delivery.
-
If you don't have a timer switch then you can run the pump in morning, afternoon and evening, 3 to 4 times a day for 15-20 min.
-
Plug in the tower and ensure the pump runs smoothly. You should hear a gentle water flow.

Step 5: Germinate & Plant Your Seedlings
-
Start by germinating your seeds in a moist, warm environment (such as coco disc ). This usually takes 7-12 days.
-
Once your seedlings sprout and show small leaves, transfer them into the net pots.
-
Insert the net pots into the slots on the tower, ensuring the roots are in contact with the mist from the system.
