Maintaining and Cleaning Your Tiny Tower Garden

Your Tiny Tower Garden is an amazing tool for growing fresh, healthy produce all year round. But just like any gardening system, a little TLC goes a long way. Regular maintenance and cleaning will keep your tower running smoothly, ensuring healthy plants and high yields. Follow this simple guide to keep your Tiny Tower Garden in top shape. 🌱 

A quick daily check-up helps prevent small issues from becoming big problems. Here’s what to look for: 

✅ Check that the pump is running smoothly and water is circulating. 
✅ Look at your plants—are the leaves green and healthy? Any signs of pests? 
✅ Top up the water if needed, especially in hot weather. 
✅ Harvest regularly to keep plants thriving. 

Once a week, take a few minutes to check your system’s water quality, nutrients, and pH levels:

✅ Test pH levels (aim for 5.5 – 6.5). 
✅ Top up nutrients according to the recommended mix (don’t forget to mix Part A and B separately.). 
✅ Remove dead leaves or plants to prevent algae buildup. 
✅ Check for root blockages—if roots are clogging water flow, trim them back.

Every 4 weeks, give your Tiny Tower Garden a more thorough clean to keep things running smoothly. 

✅ Turn off the pump and empty the water tank. 
✅ Rinse the reservoir with clean water to remove any algae buildup or residue. 
✅ If needed, use a mild vinegar solution (1 part vinegar, 3 parts water) to break down buildup. 

✅ Remove the pump and rinse it under running water. 
✅ Use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) to scrub away any debris. 
✅ Check the tubing for blockages and flush with clean water. 

✅ Wipe the tower’s surface with a damp cloth to remove dirt and algae. 
✅ For stubborn spots, use a vinegar solution or food-safe hydrogen peroxide. 
✅ Avoid using harsh chemicals—your plants will thank you. 

A little prevention goes a long way. Keep your Tiny Tower Garden in top shape with these quick tips:

✅ Algae Prevention: Keep the reservoir covered to block light. 
✅ Pest Control: If you notice bugs, spray plants with neem oil. 
✅ Root Health: If roots turn brown or slimy, trim them and add fresh water. 
✅ Pump Care: Ensure the pump is running 24/7 to avoid stagnant water.
