OPCOM Farm designed a special regeneration to increase harvest capacity for family consumption. First harvest cycle requires 3-4
weeks after seedlings are transferred. When harvesting, cut out the larger leaves and allow the smaller ones to keep growing in your
GrowBox. You can repeat the harvesting method weekly for the next 3-4weeks without the need to re-seeding.
Our free gift-sprout cover will make your GgrowBox not only a hydroponics system, but also a sprout equipment.
(Every harvest cycle is about 7-10 days.)
Make sure pH is between 5.5-6.5 (adjusted by pH+/-). For pH adjustment, please refer the
following chart.
