2. Prepare Seeds and Sponges:

   Soak your chosen seeds for 6-12 hours before planting. Insert the grow sponges into the grow baskets. Place 2-3 seeds into the hole of each grow sponge. If using the sprouter tray, spread seeds evenly on the tray.

3. Place Grow Baskets/Tray:

   Insert the grow baskets into the openings on the top deck of the reservoir. If not all pods are used, cover empty slots with pod spacers to prevent algae growth and water evaporation. If using the sprouter tray, place it on top of the reservoir.
4. Wedzera Mvura neMamineti:

   Fill the reservoir with clean water up to the "MAX" line (3.0L). Add the appropriate amount of A&B Nutrient Solution according to the user manual's guidelines (typically 15ml of each for 3L of water). Shake the nutrient bottles well before adding. The water level indicator on the front of the unit helps monitor the water volume.
