inbloom 12 Pods Hydroponics Growing System Kit, Herb Garden Planter Indoor Kit, Indoor Gardening Hydroponics Growing System with Pods, 4.2L Water Pump, Height Adjustable, Gifts for Woman, Black

Love this so much I bought everyone one for Christmas and now they are growing their own lettuce, tomatoes and cilantro. Very easy to use - soak your pods, put in your seeds, and watch them grow. You do nothing. The grow light goes off and on by itself, water circulates so it doesn't go stagnant. I can't tell you how much I've grown in this. All my romaine lettuce, tiny tomatoes, small peppers. These are great and well worth the money and such a great gift. Takes up very little room in your house.

Fantastic product

I've tried a few different hydroponic growing systems, and this is one of the best I've used. It's a bit cheaper than some other systems out there, but it works well. The plants grow fast and healthy. There are several features that make this one stand out: 1) Larger footprint than other 12-pod gardens. While this means that it takes up more space, it also means that the pods are spaced further apart. When you’ve got your garden really growing, having some more space between plants is a big deal. I’d rather lose a few more square inches of table space if it means that the plants have more room. It seems only this garden is designed like this. 2) LED array is really good in this model. The lights are brighter than some of my other gardens, and I’ve seen distinct differences in growth and leaf color based on how bright the lights are. This one is a beast. Also, unlike every other one of my hydroponic gardens, this one has each LED recessed inside individual cells instead of being flush with the bottom of the light fixture. This will help with two things: leaves that grow to the top will not be in contact with the LED and get burned as easily, and the recessed cells direct more of the light down instead of having a lot of it spill out outside of the garden. Your plants will get more of the good stuff! 3) Drain hole on bottom. Only one of my other gardens have this, and it’s very nice. Every couple of months, I like to drain the tanks and refill them with fresh water. Over time, nutrients and gunk may build up in the tank, so a full drain and refill will restore water purity. Having a drain on the bottom makes it a lot easier than lifting the entire grow platform out and dealing with the mess of roots. 4) This hydroponics growing system has a low water level alarm. I’ve forgotten to add water to my tank before when water levels are low, and it’ll effect plant growth. With the alarm, a beep will tell you when you need to water. Very convenient and intuitive! 5. Useful memory function for emergencies. Once my family told me that the power was cut off at home, I was at work and was very worried that the plants would die. When I got home, the machine was still working. The plants were perfectly fine, thanks to the hydroponics system memory. I'm so glad I have it! It really takes the worry out of plant care.

Easy of use and set up. Light is really bright. Seedlings grow so fast, better to replant early as when roots grow thick, it is hard to remove. You barely hear the motor for the water. Height is reasonable for most plants. Game changer for those who think you need a greenthhumb to garden.

This product is amazing! I had an Aerogarden before and it was very hard to use. I prefer machines to have buttons and not touch screen. So this was perfect. I have grown lettuce, spinach and even a cactus seed. I want to get more! The lights are bright and the pump works good. Good value and it is quiet as well.

This is an excellent option. A solid brand that offers more reliability and a warranty unlike ultra cheap generic brands but not NEAR as expensive as the big name brands while still giving you the same quality product. I actually bought two seperate inbloom systems. This large one and a smaller one. Comparing the two side by side this one definitely has a major perk but a few downsides as well. I'm honestly surprised. I would expect the systems to maintain the same quality. The downsides of this are really only compared to the other system of the same brand! The perks - The biggest perk is that if you manually turn the light off it will still keep track of the time and turn on 8 hours later. Living in a rural area the power sometimes flickers. Meaning the system totally resets and the grow lights may be on all night long. With this one I can just tap the light button before bed and 8 hours later it will turn on. With the smaller one if you tap the button it totally turns off the lighting, meaning I must manually turn it on the following day. The water gauge is enclosed in sturdy glass, no need to worry about bumping it. The drawbacks - The pieces between the two systems aren't really interchangeable. The smaller system includes stakes for plants and this one does not. However, the smaller systems stakes are too thick to use in this. I solved this by using chopsticks. The grow baskets are also different sizes. If I get them mixed up the basket for the smaller system will sit about 1cm raised out of the slot of this system. The smaller system is also a little better engineered overall. No knob to raise or lower the lamp. No extra wiring running from the base to the lamp. Small things that make it feel nicer. All in all it's still a great product. A few caveats but nothing I wouldn't notice if I wasn't comparing two products from the same brand. I'd definitely recommend it.

Looks Great, easy setup. Love the caps for when not using all spaces

Easy to set up an easy to you. The only thing I wish it would do is allow larger growth of plants the roots sometimes get clogged and need to be trimmed otherwise works as .

I'm new to hydroponics so I can't compare this to anything, but so far am loving it. Seeds germinate so fast. Plants look great. Pump is a little loud, especially with two 12 pod inblooms side by side.

Light has broken after 6 weeks of use. My son is gutted as spent his Christmas money on this. Please advise how to return or get a replacement.

With my brown thumbs I didn't have much hope but I wanted to try to grow some dill and cilantro for my bunnies in the winter. This was so easy to use and I got so much dill! Love the timer so you can set and forget and it comes on and off at the set times, perfect for my plants. Adding water is easy too.
