Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best starter plant?

The best starter plant depends on your culinary preferences and gardening goals. Easy-to-grow options like Bibb lettuce, arugula, and sweet basil are great for beginners. These plants are straightforward to maintain and provide quick gratification as they mature relatively fast.

What types of plants are included in your starter plant bundles, and how do I choose the right ones for my indoor garden?

Our starter plant bundles include a variety of herbs and leafy greens such as arugula, Bibb lettuce, cilantro, sage, and basil. Choose your starter plants based on what you enjoy eating and the conditions of your growing area, such as light, space, and climate control within your indoor garden.

Are your starter plants suitable for beginners, or do they require advanced gardening skills to maintain?

Our hydroponic starter plants are very beginner-friendly. They are designed to be easy to maintain, offering a convenient and straightforward way for anyone to start growing their own food at home, regardless of their gardening experience.

What is the typical size of the starter plants I’ll receive, and how long does it take for them to mature and become harvest-ready?

The typical size of our starter plants at delivery is small, young plants ready to be transplanted into your hydroponic system. Depending on the plant type, they generally take a few weeks to mature and become ready for harvesting.

How do your hydroponic starter plants differ from traditional potted plants, and what are the advantages of choosing hydroponic options?

Hydroponic starter plants are grown in a soil-free system, which often results in faster growth and yields due to the plants’ more direct access to nutrients and water. This method reduces common soil-borne pests and diseases and allows for cleaner and more compact gardening.

How should I care for my starter plants once they arrive, and what are the key steps to ensure their healthy growth?

Once your hydroponic starter plants arrive, transplant them into your hydroponic system. Ensure they have adequate light, either natural or from a grow light, and maintain the nutrient solution at the correct pH and strength. Check for pests and diseases regularly and adjust your system’s settings to promote healthy growth.

Can I reuse the containers or trays that come with the starter plant bundles for future plantings, or are they single-use items?

Our starter plants typically come in hydroponic plugs, which can be potted directly into your system at home or work.
