Click and Grow Smart Indoor Garden (SGS1US) with Basil Seed Capsule Refill - 3 Pack - White

I already owned one of these smart indoor gardens so snapped this up when it went on sale at Best Buy. The price was good, delivery was quick and the gardens work really well. The timed grow light and special nutrients in the plants pods make plants grow with lightening speed and I’ve bought more pods to try out a variety of edible plants. A great way to garden if you’re in an apartment and/or or lack natural light.

I bought this for my daughter for her birthday. A week after planting we started to see growth. One month later we now have 3 good size basil plants. It is quite bright and light is on a timer so we have it in a corner of our kitchen where the constant light does not bother us. Hopefully we will be able to find a way to plant our own seeds in it as refill packs seem rather expensive and hard to find right now.

I am not understanding the negative reviews. I love this so much. I am buying more and also purchasing this wonderful item as gifts. This is the easiest way to grow the things you love. I found this to be very quick to grow and pretty much maintenance free. I have only grown basil so far but look forward to trying out many of the other pods. I think that I may just grow an indoor garden this year Brilliant idea!!!!! Thanks , Darlene

This is a very simple, product. Just some very bright LED lamps on a 16-hour timer. The water reservoir has a floating indicator that is supposed to drop as the water level declines, but it constantly sticks. I've been fooled by that a couple of times and lost some plants. Some plants do germinate well, however, but others don't do well at all. I think I'll try making my own seed pods, as they are rather expensive and can only be bought in packs of three. Frankly, I'd be just as happy with an LED lamp and a timer.

After a couple of months of use I noticed that the floater no longer indicated water levels. Having, with a struggle removed it, I could hear water sloshing around in it. Since I tend to all my plants weekly I worked around this problem and have continued to enjoy the plants both for their value as food and their appearance. The bright light serves as a great night light in my kitchen.
