How do you use the APE221 Grow Bag?
Since the substrate is fully colonized, you can start the fruiting phase immediately. Ensure a clean working environment and keep conditions as stable as possible.
Note: small cut under the air filter
Under the air filter of the grow bag, there is a small cut made by the manufacturer. This opening is intended to release excess COâ‚‚ and pressure when the grow bag bulges during the cultivation process. This is normal and not a defect. You do not need to do anything about this, and the opening does not need to be taped off.
