Utilize your vertical space, grow bigger, healthier plants, reduce your carbon footprint, use less water, and reclaim your health with an indoor hydroponic veggie garden!

Let’s get into the top 10 vegetables to grow in your indoor garden year round!

How to Grow Vegetables at Home?

There are a few different ways to grow vegetables at home. Depending on the space you are working with, you can grow in interior areas like your kitchen, home office, living space, corner space, or on a window sill, or on a table, on a balcony, or in a sunny part of your apartment or house.

If you’re worried about the plants having enough access to sunshine, opt for an indoor garden kit like Gardyn’s Home Kit 3.0.

With Gardyn’s home kit, you never have to worry about placing your indoor plants where they can get natural light because the system comes equipped with LED lights that grow big, strong, and healthy plants!

Gardyn’s hydroponic growing system is the most simple and hands-off indoor garden out there. The most work you will have to put into this system is the setup (which is minimal).

After that, the system essentially takes care of itself with built-in cameras, sensors, and an AI software that monitors and walks you through each step of the grow process, letting you know exactly what your plants may need.

Not to mention, if you need to go on vacation, you can set up your system to completely take care of itself while you’re away, and come home to fresh home-grown produce!

Save on your grocery bill and grow your own nutrient-rich, organic, and sustainably grown produce right at home!

Gardyn’s Home Kits: The Perfect Vegetables Growing Solution?

Looking for some fantastic indoor garden ideas but don’t know where to start? As experts on indoor gardening, let us help you make the best decision!

There are a few small, but vital things to keep in mind (if you’re new) when growing a diy beautiful indoor garden.

  • How much space are you working with?
  • What’s the lighting like in your potential growing spaces?

Growing in soil is not the best way to have an indoor vegetable and herb garden. Plants are limited in their growth, and their roots take longer to mature when having to work through dense soil.

Plus, who wants to deal with the mess of soil inside their home?

In a hydroponics system, you don’t need any insider tips to start an indoor garden. Your plants will grow quicker and bigger because the water delivers nutrients directly to the root system of the plants.
