Control Panel
Buttons
Touch the icon to access all the Menu options on your
touchscreen. From here you can access all the aspects of your AeroGarden:
Garden Settings, Light, Pump, Plant Food and Tips.
Touch the ‘QUICK PLANT’ button when you want to start a new garden. This
refreshes timers and settings.
Touch the ‘GARDEN TIPS’ button to read the scheduled tip that may be available
on your screen, or to read more tips at any time.
Touch the button to turn Vacation Mode On or Off. Switching to Vacation Mode shortens your Light On period, which cuts about in half the amount of water your garden will use. While it also reduces overall yields, many people also like it for day-to-day low-maintenance gardening.
Touch the button to temporarily turn your LED Grow Light On, Dim it, or turn it Off. Once selected, the light will remain On, Dimmed or Off until the next time they are set to go On/Off.
Occasional use will not harm your plants.
Wi-Fi: A connection to Wi-Fi is not needed to enjoy your garden, but the
AeroGarden App does unlock new features on your AeroGarden. Download the
AeroGarden App by searching for
‘AeroGarden’ in your mobile App Store. Follow the instructions in the App to
connect your garden to Wi-Fi.
The WIFI icon will remain Off if you do not connect your AeroGarden to your local Wi-Fi network. The icon will turn blue when your AeroGarden is connected, and it will turn yellow if the connection to your local Wi-Fi network is interrupted or stopped. You can touch it to access your AeroGarden’s Wi-Fi settings page.

Good To Know
Plant Food
Add Liquid Plant Food to the Water Bowl when you first plant your Seed Pod
Kit and when the ‘Add Plant Food’ alert activates, every 2 weeks.
Follow the directions on the Liquid Plant Food bottle for feeding amounts, and
top off the water level to ‘Fill to Here.’
Touch the Plant Food Added icon on your touchscreen to turn off the alert and
reset the Plant Food timer.
Pump
When you first start your garden, your pump is set to run 1 hour every 11
hours, while it is in Germination Mode. After 2 weeks, it shifts automatically
to the best pump cycle for the plants in your garden.
There is a ‘Test Pump’ feature under MENU/Pump.
Watering
Your garden will show when water levels are High, Medium and Low. A ‘Low
Water’ alert will appear when the water level is too low. For best results,
keep the water level topped up to the ‘Fill to Here.’ Do not overflow.
Lights
Your AeroGarden has a built-in timer for its Grow Light that automatically
provides your plants with the perfect amount of ‘sunlight.’ As long as your
plants get this amount of light, it does not matter what time of day the light
is Off. You can customize the time your light comes On or Off during the day
under MENU/Light.
