Buying Guide: This indoor smart garden is worth the splurge
In a year unlike any other, gardening has provided a happy escape for many who are staying at home. But while planting a few herbs and picking tomatoes off the vine in the summer is rewarding, few people have the space or the climate for a year-round yield. That’s where this vertical smart garden comes in. Named the best invention of 2020 by Time Magazine, Gardyn’s indoor smart garden has a 30-plant capacity and yields enough food to feed your family.
How It Works
Gardyn’s indoor smart garden is different than countertop hydroponic gardens that give you a small yield of herbs and peppers. This streamlined vertical AI-equipped garden gives you plug and play options with yCubes full of seeds and nutrients so you can grow fresh vegetables, fruits, flowers, and herbs. The indoor smart garden positions itself as a “farmers market for your home,” and while the steep price tag might make you do a double take, you might not ever buy produce from a store again.
Small Footprint, Big Impact
Gardyn takes up just two square feet of space, but the amount of produce you’ll get in return will make a huge impact on your family’s diet. The garden can grow up to 30 large plants ranging from herbs like cilantro, mint, dill, and oregano, to leafy greens like kale and butterhead lettuce, to sweet and spicy peppers and tomatoes.
No Green Thumb Required
The biggest benefit of Gardyn’s indoor smart garden is that you don’t have to have any gardening knowledge to get started. The built-in AI “Kelby” is a smart gardening assistant that monitors plant growth, light levels, water levels, and ripeness. You can even let Kelby take over during out-of-town trips so you’ll have produce to enjoy when you return home.
