TROUBLE SHOOTING
TROUBLE SHOOTING
If white salt deposits form on the Clay Pebbles:
1. Try using a milder nutrient solution and topping off with plain water only.
2. Occasionally drain your system, refill with plain water and run the pump
overnight. After the overnight rinse, empty reservoir and refill with
fresh nutrient.
If Plants are not growing well and you suspect “hard” water:
1. Use FloraMicro Hardwater in place of FloraMicro.
2. Try distilled or purified water. You should see a significant improvement
in plant health and growth within one week.
3. Collect rainwater for use in your AeroFlo
2 .
If nutrient solution stops flowing from the beige spray lines:
1. Check to ensure that pump is plugged in and the reservoir is filled
with nutrient solution.
2. Check whether emitter holes in the beige spraylines are clogged. Keep pump
filter clean and use General Hydroponic’s FloraKleen™ to minimize nutrient
buildup and crusting.
