The pod
An innovative hydroponic system.
Thanks to our patented Float® design, you only have one thing to do: add water once every two or three weeks when the floater sinks. The plant takes all mineral salts it needs out of the water (these are released into the water over the weeks). Discover the Prêt à Pousser technology.
Questions /Answers about Virescent Salanova®
Could you repeat the question please?
Questions /Answers
I have two plantlets of Salad, can't I just keep both?
Not in the pod, they will become each others competitors. Choose the prettiest one and let it grow in peace. If you are really not ready to divorce the other plantlet, repot it in soil.
There are algae on my pod!
No worries, it's pretty common. Virescent Salanova® takes some time to germinate, and the rich environment of the substrate is helping the development of algae or mold. Once your plant starts to sprout and grow, its strands will cut off the access to light of the algae, and they will disappear. If the situation seems out of control, do not hesitate to send us a photo in the "Assistance" section of the application.
