Troubleshooting

Plants are not receiving water

Check that the water source is on and the hose is securely connected. Ensure there are no kinks in the hose and that the spray heads are not blocked. Verify all connectors are tight.

Mesh cage is loose or not fitting properly

Re-check the frame assembly for any loose bolts or misaligned tubes. Ensure the mesh is correctly attached to the frame according to the instructions.

Water is pooling in the planting box

Confirm the open-bottom design is in direct contact with the ground, allowing for natural drainage. Ensure the soil is not compacted to the point of impeding water flow.

Zipper is difficult to open or close

Gently pull the zipper while ensuring the fabric is not caught. Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant or wax to the zipper teeth if it feels stiff.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Assemble the galvanized steel frame first, ensuring all connections are secure. Attach the HDPE mesh cage, aligning it with the frame. Connect the irrigation kit by attaching the hose to your water source, running it through the cage, and connecting the spray heads and connectors as per the included diagram. Ensure the mesh cage is fully enclosed and secured.

Compatibility: The irrigation system requires a standard garden hose connection. It is compatible with most outdoor water sources. The planting area is suitable for a wide range of soil types and plant varieties.

Care: Wipe the steel frame with a damp cloth as needed to clean. Inspect the mesh periodically for any tears or damage. After the growing season, clean out the soil and store the mesh cover if desired, though it is designed for all-weather durability. Check the irrigation kit for any clogs or blockages before the next planting season.
