Not too close, not too far.
1
leaves will burn, too far will cause them to lose energy and they will stop growing.
A little mold and algae never hurt anyone.
2
Because of this, it's difficult to blame algae or small mushrooms that decide to settle in your pod or on your
floaters. Do not panic, they don't harm your plants and won't affect the quality of your harvests. To clean the

sprouted after 4 to 5 weeks, it's time to send us a photo of your pod (via the app or hello@pretapousser.com).
