Ahopegarden Indoor Garden Hydroponics Growing System: 10 Pods Plant Germination Kit Aeroponic Herb Vegetable Growth Lamp Countertop with LED Grow Light - Hydrophonic Planter Grower Harvest Lettuce

This is such a lovely compact hydroponic set up! It’s very sleek and having 10 spaces to plant is great. I’ve already had some success within a couple weeks of planting - many of my seeds have grown into seedlings, and I also transplanted a basil propagation that I had grown water roots which has been incredibly successful and grown very quickly - doubled in size within two weeks. Set up was simple and intuitive, and the LED lights reach a good height to accommodate growth. Motor isn’t too loud- I keep it in my bedroom and don’t notice it much. Will need to purchase more supplies (the biodegradable inserts you put seeds in) for the next round of plants, but that’s months and months away.

Easy to follow instructions and little assembly required. This system is a great way to grow herbs or lettuce or just about any smaller garden plant. There are larger systems also. Its well made and once set up its watch for germination. It includes fertilizer too

This planter I had purchased back in jan 2024. It grew so many things from different herbs, peppers, lettuce, everything. My first hydroponic system. Easy to use and like how the light goes up as it grows, plus the two different lights (veg & flowers). The pump is very quiet and had a nice view of how much water. To provide fertilizer, easy with the measuring cups and easy to pour in. The design of the extra hole is a nice addition to keep adding water as the plants grow. The amount to grow is perfect to pull lettuce leaves off to add to a sandwich or make a small salad, grabbing some dill to add to my potatoes. Just be warned, they grow fast and big. So big that I took the dill out of the spot because it was almost touching the light and the light was pulled out to the max. Had the dill grow in a separate container. It lasted for a while but nothing like when it was in this grower -- as it has the auto light and pump.Recently the pump went out. I reached out to the company. They helped me troubleshoot and since the pump stopped working, sent me a new one. That one works great!!Back to getting my plants setup for the new season.

This can make a master green thumb out of anybody! It has a solid design and, when filled properly with water, has a bit of weight. It is easy to assemble with very easy to understand instructions (with a booklet!) on how to use the garden AND how to grow various herbs and veggies. It also comes with a little kit with potting soil cones, caps to keep in humidity, label stickers, tongs, and more! All you need are seeds.I planted these on 8/13/25 and took this photo on 8/27/25. My cherry tomatoes, basil, and green onions have germinated and grown so fast!The light and water pump are on timers and the height of the lamp is adjustable to grow up with your plants. The water pump is barely a whisper.If you're on the fence, just do it!

It’s a pretty decent machine. Compact. I got it in black. Comes with nutrients and instructions. I am quite impressed with how adjustable the light is. I’d say it can be adjusted to roughly 12-14 inches in height. Doesn’t come with any starter seeds and does recommend purified water. Light and lid are easily removed for maintenance and cleaning. Comes with exactly 10 sponges so you will need to order more. It doesn’t mention the size or the sponges however. 24 month warranty and thorough instructions but overall an easy setup. I think it’s a great bang for your buck. I will come back and update with plant growth.

I'm delighted with this planter, so much so that I bought one and three days later I bought a second one.You might be wondering why?Analyzing the situation, I came to the conclusion that they lend themselves to intensive, not very varied planting. Let me explain. I'm going to dedicate them to planting lettuce and cherry tomatoes with a basil plant in each. The lettuces are planted in two stages: half at the beginning and the other half when I start harvesting. That way, there will be a constant, uninterrupted harvest.I'll do an update when it happens.Now, the important part. Both sets arrived in perfect condition with everything included except the seeds. I'm waiting for the lettuces tomorrow to start the experiment.. I checked that the pumps and lights were working. Everything is perfect. The pumps aren't noisy, barely a whisper like a fish tank.The lights are a little hard to raise and lower, but that's a good thing, since they can be removed and adjusted outside the planter, ensuring they won't fall on the plants.All the equipment is plastic, but I feel like it will be durable. In any case, I'll update it as I reach the different stages. In principle, I dare recommend it for beginners like myself. Time will tell if I'm right, but I'm convinced my plan will work.Update: 9/7..I went crazy!!I also bought the two-story Ahoopegarden... big mistake.https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DBHBLPH5?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_titleI didn't consider that I'd be unable to work in the planter below. I'm working on a solution.I installed a four-outlet air pump. (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CL27ZZYW?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1It works perfectly. I did this because my house has a constant temperature of 80F, which affects the planters and causes the dissolved oxygen in the water to decrease, increasing the risk of problems for the plants. Solution? An air pump like they use in aquariums.Today, 9/7, I already have basil, cherry tomatoes, and several different lettuces already sprouted.When I find the solution to the 44-pod planter, I'll do an update.I found it. This rolling table is perfect. It'll be arriving home on Wednesday.I'll make an update for it by Friday.Update 9/17...Well, the solution worked. This is how look now over the table. As you can see several plants already sprouted.Lettuces, cherry tomatoes, basil, arugulas coming on the back. Looks like the dill sprouted too.Now the final problem that I have to fix is the temperature of the water on the tanks. It is 80 F... to hight...I'm working on it right now. I will make an update when I found the solution.Now the small ones... they are excellent. They went from zero to these latest photos in 17 days. Not bad, not bad at all, right? The basil, cherry tomatoes, and lettuce are in full development. A few more days and I'll start pulling off a few leaves to test the flavor... LOL!!The tomatoes... just have to wait...

Genuinely thrilled by how well this works. All of the produce we planted this summer was started from seeds in this planter during the winter. Easy to use and clean. It doesn't take up much space and is whisper quiet. The extra light during dark winter months is an added bonus. Highly recommended!
