The Click and Grow Smart Garden 3 gives you the ability to grow herbs indoors, without lifting a finger. All you have to do is add one of the brand’s plant pods and water to the tank—once powered up, the machine will monitor its water and light intake as well as its nutrient levels. After a few weeks, you’ll have freshly sprouted basil, cilantro, parsley, dill, mint, or any of the 75+ different plant pods the brand sells, ready for consumption. The kit comes with three basil pods so mom can get started right away.
