When it comes to cleaning AeroGarden units, it’s important to keep in mind that this should be done after each planting. This way, you diminish the risk of root pathogens that can otherwise damage the crop. The process is not that complicated, but you should read all the instructions beforehand.
You will need to fill the bowl with clean water that also contains chlorine bleach. Next, the system should run the water through the pump or aerator for about 5 minutes. Once this is done, you need to rinse the bowl very well and then fill it with clear water that should also run through the system for about 5 minutes.
When you are done with everything, you should rinse the system well to make sure that no bleach is left behind and then allow it to dry for 48 hours before adding new water and pods.
