Winter is over, and spring is slowly approaching. Now that the sun is shining more and the temperatures are starting to rise, it's time to start tackling your vision for a green balcony in the summer.
Reconstruction: what you need to pay attention to
Once you have brought your entire Boum system into the basement for the winter, only 5 simple steps are necessary:
- Connect the pot(s) to the water tank using a hose. If you want to see how this works again, you can find it here a short explanatory video.
- Next, fill the water tank through the opening provided. Make sure that the water tank is not overfilled; it should be filled to a maximum of two finger widths below the edge of the lid.
- Now connect the control to the Boum app . You can do this following these instructions .
- Now you can put soil into the Boum pot. Matthias Erb explains how to do this in this explanatory video .
- Last but not least, you can plant your desired plants. We also have a short video where you can see exactly how this works.
