October 25 2024 9:40pm • Est. Read Time: 2 MIN

Once your Rise Garden is connected to Wi-Fi, you can easily set a custom light schedule to fit your lifestyle. Here's how:

For Personal Garden, Family Rise Garden, Rise Garden 2: 

  1. Tap Settings: Open the Rise Gardens app and tap the settings icon on your Garden's main page.

  2. Choose Light Schedule: Select "Lights Schedule" from the settings menu.

  3. Set Time: Tap "Start Time" to choose the start time, then tap "Duration" to set the light duration.

  4. Set Duration: Select the desired duration for your light cycle. We recommend 16 hours per day.



Our Light Feature offers two modes:

  • Sunrise Mode: Gradually increases light intensity to mimic a natural sunrise, gently waking your plants.

  • Sunset Mode: Gradually decreases light intensity to simulate a natural sunset, preparing your plants for nighttime rest.

If your Garden fails to connect to Wi-Fi, you can manually set a light schedule. Simply plug your Garden back into power at the desired start time for your 16-hour light cycle. Doing this hard reset will train your Garden to turn on at that time moving forward.


For Rise Garden 3: 

To set a custom light schedule with specific start and end times for your Rise Garden 3, follow these steps:

  1. Tap Settings: Open the Rise Gardens app and tap the settings icon on your Garden's main page.

  2. Choose Light Schedule: Select "Lights Schedule" from the settings menu.

  3. Set Time: Tap "Start Time" to choose the start time, then tap "Duration" to set the light duration.

  4. Set Duration: Select the desired duration for your light cycle. We recommend 16 hours per day.


Our Light Feature offers 1 mode:

  • Vacation Mode: Automatically reduces the daily light cycle to 8 hours.

Unlike our previous models, the Rise Garden 3 doesn't allow you to adjust light intensity. However, you can manually control the lights by turning them on or off with a simple tap.

Lastly, it's important to note that if the Rise Garden 3 is unable to connect to Wi-Fi, the lights will remain on 24/7. In this case, you'll need to manually unplug each light individually to turn them off.
