This pick even earned a spot in our 2022 Kitchen Gear and Coffee Awards. You can choose from over 50 pre-sprouted seedlings each season that are sold on their website. According to Sassos, “You can learn more about your plant pods on the app, but that’s about it.”Ī larger version of the Farmstand Nook and the brand's first iteration, the Farmstand Garden is a smart pick for anyone who wants to grow lettuce and herbs.
While it does come with an app, we didn’t find it very useful. The lamp also has a built-in timer and easy-to-install arm extensions so the lights raise as your plants grow. All pods are available for single purchase or in bundles.
If you choose to use your own seeds, you must use the Grow Anything Plant pods, though the brand says they're best optimized for fruiting plants. Take note, Smart Garden's pods must be used with the indoor garden, but the brand has a wide variety available including, herbs, lettuce, chili peppers and more. It can hold three pods, making it a good choice for someone living on their own or a small household that doesn’t use a lot of herbs. I also love that it's compact and perfect to have on a small kitchen counter or in a little nook in your home.” The Good Housekeeping Institute's registered dietitian, Stefani Sassos, tried this indoor garden and says that it's “extremely easy to use, especially for someone that doesn't have a green thumb like myself. If space is a premium in your home, you might want to try the Smart Garden from Click & Grow. Take note, if the plants are left to grow for too long they may start pressing against the lights and burning. When we tested it at home, we found that herbs and lettuce grew so fast they needed to be harvested every few days, which makes it great for someone who uses these frequently. The Aerogarden Harvest claims to grow plants up to six times faster than soil. We found that it was very easy to set up and appreciated the lighted reminders to add plant food and water. It comes with liquid plant nutrients, and there’s an indicator to remind you to fill up the water and add the plant food. When we tested this unit, we found the plants grew in the recommended time frame listed on the pod and the lights worked on the recommended schedule. You can also choose to use your own seeds, but you will need to buy a Grow Anything Seed Pod Kit in order to do so. This set includes six herb seed pods, but other herb, veggie and flower pods are available to purchase from the Aerogarden website. The hydroponic garden includes a full-spectrum grow light that's intended to mimic the effects of sunlight. A favorite among our experts, the Aerogarden grows an abundance of greens (six plants, according to the company) in a compact device that still fits on a window ledge.
