A little bit of care for your roses will ensure healthy growth and
plentiful blooms. Please take a moment to review this section
shortly after planting your Mini Rose Garden.
Add Water –
All AeroGarden Models
There should always be water in the Bowl of your AeroGarden.
For instructions, see the “Add Water Using a Spouted Container”
section in your model’s Quick Start Guide.
• Use room-temperature water. Very hot or very cold water will hurt
your plants.
• We recommend using municipal tap, bottled or purified water. Well
or softened water SHOULD NOT be used because the extra minerals
in these sources may be harmful to aeroponically grown plants.

Raise Lamp Hood
(Light[s])
-
All AeroGarden Models
As your roses grow, you will need to raise the Lamp Hood.
Leave 1-2 inches of space between the top of plants and the
light(s). Before raising light(s), we recommend pruning any in-
dividual branches that are taller than the others in your Garden
(refer to “Prune Rose Plants” on page 10 of this guide).
For instructions on how to raise the Lamp Hood (Light[s]), refer to
“Raise Lamp Hood (Light[s])” in your model’s Quick Start Guide.
If Grow Bulb(s) are too close to the plants, the leaves may brown and
burn. If they are too far away, your plants will “stretch” toward the
light(s) and look floppy and unhealthy.
