Tray Lifter

Microgreen Base kit 6x 5W LED, 3 Shelf. There are many ways you can grow microgreens and some ways depending on the seed type, for instance, growing SnowPea and Wheatgrass, is made a lot easier if you are able to lift the grill above the reservoir, this gives more room for the large root mass and also means the growing medium can stay dry alleviating the problem of seeds rotting and causing mould. The SnowPea is the Queen of green leaf and is the base of all of my salads. This is why we include the 4 tab set that sits on the outside of the reservoir (part 16 in the picture). We have also made some acrylic tweezers which help you remove ungerminated seeds, (part 8 in the picture). An acrylic flattening tool (part 9 in the picture), it’s good to press the seeds into the growing medium before you spray them to ensure they come in contact with moisture, especially when you using the cover. We give you 2 types of cable ties one narrow and one wide, the narrow one is for attaching the light bracket to the stand and securing the cable, the wider cable tie is for securing the horizontal movement of the lights, also supplying a method of securing the sticky in stray insect trap. The power supply is 36 W, so you can comfortably add 6X5 West lights i.e. another shelf without purchasing another power supply or connectors (parts 12 & 13 in picture). Part 14 attaches to the base of the grill ensuring the grill does not sag in the centre leading to an uneven distribution of water, especially useful for potted plants and punnets. Part 17 is 6 punnets that will fit into the sprouting tray, normally you would use these in a taller shelf system, they can be either placed in the base or on top of the grill, personally I just used 5 which gives me a gap at the front in the middle and I place them in the base of the tray and I can easily see when water needs to be added, you may wish to start them on the shelf and then move them to another shelf where they can grow a little bit taller. We also give you 2 trays, when in stock a choice of 2 colours, having to trays is particularly useful if you’re doing microgreens that turnaround in 2 weeks, as you can germinate the next tray on the top shelf which is sitting above the lights getting their warmth from them thus exhilarating their germination. So if you are just doing 2-3wks microgreens in the trays such as Radish, SnowPea, Kale, Broccoli, then this small height space and is all that is required. You can also grow the Coriander and Rocket in the trays with the addition of the pelletised fertiliser or you can use the punnets which is a better option, but you will need to keep them trimmed or move to a larger shelf height.
