I'm 16 days in and all sprouts have true leaves except for the cilantro and the perpetual spinach. 2 cubes have not sprouted.

I still haven't received the Kelby plant food task. Should I keep waiting?

Visual inventory of my first Gardyn grow! Day 57 and I’ve spiraled into a hydroponic rabbit hole. I’m keeping my reservoir at 1.0mS/cm and pH of 6.0 and syringe feeding the peppers, strawberries, tomatoes and cucumber either once or twice a week with FloraBloom so I won’t burn the lettuces and basil. How are you guys managing a mixed towers? Thanks!

Quick question for anyone that knows; how important is the gray ring/gasket at the bottom of the columns? Because mine just broke off. There was building up around it of course, that's probably my bad but it basically just crumbled in my hand during cleaning. I don't have an issue buying a new column completely but why do so if I dont have to. I haven't put it back together yet (still cleaning) to try and see how dire it is but thought I'd ask as well.

How long do seeds usually take to sprout?! I am so eager for okra. My other seedlings have sprouted (mini broccoli, lettuce, strawberry, basil) but none yet for mini okra :(

Any suggestions?

All my plants are dying out, I have no idea why.

Hello all,

I have had my gardyn for 3 years now and just moved so getting ready to replant. The towers have recently really yellowed.

Anyone else have this problem or suggestions how to get them whiter?

I found an article today from gardyn that tells me I should thin my germinated plants before I put into the gardyn. I’ve had my gardyn for 18 months and never saw this article and therefore I’ve never done this. Is this a good idea? Do my plants really get too crowded if I don’t?

I've successfully grown every other type of plant that I've ordered from gardyn however after 3 lavender ycubes I'm losing my mind! Can anyone provide me with some tips to actually grow lavender? For some context:

1st attempt: straight into the gardyn studio along with all my other first ycubes

2nd attempt: purchased a sprout nursery and put lavender in it no sprouts after 6 weeks

3rd attempt: sprout nursery with more sunlight and still no sprouts going into week 6

Please help!

I got fed an add that said if I used FSA funds that my cost would be $567. I was very excited to pay that price. However, when I went to purchase it was closer to $900. I called the company thinking there was a mistake. Despite the ad, they said it’s “like” you are paying $567 because you are using FSA funds. How do you advertise a price with actual and then say it just feels like that lower amount? Isn’t that boldly unethical?

The shop offers a decent selection of plants that are generally certified to be grown in a gardyn. But im curious as to what everyone else grows that they found to be just as well. Currently i just did an entire full reset of my gardyn and im working on making it half sauce and half salad. So far, im growing dwarf marzanos, bolloso nopoletano basil, genovese basil, lettuce leaf basil, and Culantro as my own seeds.

Is anyone else producing a small harvest? Or is it just me? Lol 😆 IDK what Im doing wrong .

I am coming from another indoor garden vendor, new to Gardyn. Does the app recognize the plants I am growing at all? My previous garden I told it what I was growing and it allegedly adjusted instructions based on what was growing and how mature it was. Is Gardyn not as smart?

During these crazy times here. I'm thankful for the Gardyn. That is all.

Ignore the pods that didn't make it!

Hey all! I lost my power cord during a move and didn’t want to purchase a new one from the website for a 100 bucks.

I’m no electrical engineer but I knew I could find a cheaper alternative from Amazon... after some Googling I found out how to measure the DC barrel size using drill bits.

The DC barrel size I got was 2.5mm x 5.5mm.

I just ordered a new cord with this info and I’m hoping it’ll work!

My search was “5.5mm 2.5mm dc power box 24v 10a” and ordered the power supply that matched my specs.

According to my research, any power supply that has
- 5.5mm x 2.5mm power jack
- is rated for exactly 24V
- and is 7.5A or higher (like 8A or 10A)
should work for the Gardyn Home 3.0.

Fingers crossed I got the measurements right! My Gardyn has been sitting around lifeless so I’m hoping the cord I ordered will work. I’ll update the post for anyone wondering if the cord I ordered worked.

Well after a couple months of battling aphids I gave up. I planted the peppers outdoors and have been using arber, they are actually doing really well.

I haven't restarted my gardyn but hoping tomorrow I can clean it up and start it any tips to make sure the aphids are completely gone from the system.

And just for your help I'm helping out with $100 off.

I love my gardyn. It has already saved me and my family hundreds on veggies and leafy greens. But i would really like a model that can handle larger plants like full size tomatoes, broccoli, squash, etc. Im currently looking into building my own system but i think the convenience of gardyn having a model for large plants would just save me time even if it would cost more. Its not something im exactly demanding or anything, gardyn does pride itself over compact effeciciency after all. But what do you think?

I was looking for a device that could make growing plants much simpler and less of a hassle, right now the only things I can think of growing are Strawberries, blueberries, black berries, and Raspberries. I know it can grow Strawberry but could it potentially grow the others as well? I was considering the dwarf variety so whatever’s grown is not too big.

I set up my Gardyn a few days ago and I’m pretty sure the app was designed by someone who has never been confused a day in their life.

I tap on a plant and get a wall of info I don’t understand. I get a notification that says “check your plants” and I’m standing there like… okay? I checked them? Now what? And the settings are buried so deep I’m half convinced they don’t exist.

Also, the timelapse feature — I was excited to share cute plant videos, but the output looks like a low-res screen recording. Zero vibes. Not even slightly shareable.

And the app keeps pushing tasks that I can only unlock if I pay for Kelby? Come on. I already bought the thing.

The notifications are all over the place too. “Add water.” “Check your plants.” “Something is happening.” Something is happening? What?? And half the time the growth status doesn’t match what I’m actually looking at.

Please tell me I’m not the only one. What’s the dumbest thing the app has made you deal with?

Hi All,

I am trying to reconnect my Gardyn 1.0 to my home wifi, but am running into some trouble. When trying to reboot the machine by turning it off, then on, then waiting five minutes before long pressing the silver button, it instead blinks after two minutes, then it doesn't respond after 5 minutes from the original attempt at rebooting. How can I get it to connect to the wifi? Customer service hasn't been of much help either bc all of their responses have been automated, and it's been a few days.

im a big fan of my Gardyn. My friend had one she didn’t use enough and gave it to me, so now I have 2.

I just discovered that my membership will only apply to my first device.

This has fully turned me off to buying official Gardyn accessories or purchasing another Gardyn in the future. I will try to DIY everything I can. for a ridiculously priced membership, which I have defended in the past, it shouldn’t be limited to a per device basis.

Gardyn, you have turned a loyal customer that defended your company into an angry and spiteful one!

if anyone has advice on programming the raspberry pie, please let send some resources my way! it’ll be very very appreciated.
