Whether you’re a new urban farmer or an old-school green thumb, raising your own plants is easier, faster, and more fun than ever with this hydroponic gardening system. Hydrofarm Megagarden Hydroponic Gardening System features a 4-square-foot garden space that produces 5 times the yields of a standard garden its size. That’s right. This 10-inch-tall garden system grows lettuce, herbs, vegetables, orchids and more, indoors or out--5 times faster than the standard garden--and does it without using soil.

The Megagarden works great indoors, or outside in hobby greenhouses when illuminated with a Hydrofarm Sunburst Series grow light (not included), or any grow light. At the heart of the Megagarden is a super efficient flood-and-drain pump irrigation system that ensures optimal moisture control for healthy roots. The system works by pumping nutrient solution up from a reservoir to a water tray where water levels are precisely controlled. Plants are watered uniformly on a timed cycle for optimal moisture control and healthier roots.

The soilless Megagarden’s removable grow tray measures 23 inches by 23 inches square and holds fifteen 5-inch, plastic grow pots filled with, not soil, but either the included fired-clay or pebble grow media. The system comes complete a 7-1/2-gallon reservoir, submersible pump, timer (capable of up to 12 flood settings per day), rock-wool starter cubes, 16 ounces of Hydrofarm All-Purpose Nutrient, a pH test kit, and complete instructions.

Customers are mixed about the size of the outdoor living product. Some mention it's the perfect size setup for so many applications, such as the compact footprint. However, others say that the fill hole in the tray was much smaller than the plug they supplied. They also say the holes for gromits and gear were slightly too big. Some customers also mention that the bottom tank is small and the whole thing is taller.

"...It's easily the perfect size setup for so many applications, such as the kitchen herb garden I'm planning right now, which is why I'm about to buy..." Read more

"...Times have changed. First off the fill hole in the tray was much smaller than the plug they supplied to plug it...." Read more

"Overall a nice compact system with expensive extras included but:Why are the pots 7" tall but the water level as-is is set at 2"?..." Read more

"...Either the hole is too big, or wrong size grommet. The grommet is loose fitting in the reservoir. Completely un-useable...." Read more

13 customers mention0 positive13 negative

Customers are dissatisfied with the holes in the outdoor living product. They mention that the holes are too small for fittings, the drain fittings are the wrong size, and the grommets are too big. They also mention that some of the precut holes needed to be cleaned up. Some customers also mention the reservoir does not have a hole drilled for the water level indicator. Overall, some customers had to enlarge one hole for the cap and the layout of the holes was not accurate.

"...However, the holes in mine weren't drilled to the exact fit of the parts provided so I needed to sand the edges to make them wider...." Read more

"Only problem was had to inlarge one hole for cap. Little bit of sanding and it fit" Read more

"The only things that I didn’t like were some of the holes that were precut needed to be cleaned up so that took me 30 min to fix but other than that..." Read more

13 customers mention0 positive13 negative

Customers are dissatisfied with the quality of the outdoor living product. They mention that it's cheaply made, flimsy, and susceptible to easy breakage. Customers also say that the quality control is non-existent. They also mention that the table cracked and the compounds which make up the outer body are extremely thin.

9 customers mention0 positive9 negative

Customers are dissatisfied with the leakage of the outdoor living product. They mention that the pre-cut holes were too small, and nutrients leaked. The design is poor, and the plastic gasket around the water inlet is totally disintegrated. The drain hose grommet does not seal, and despite no damage to box, the reservoir was cracked at the bottom.

"...I have purchased both this and an Emily’s garden. Both leaked out of the box, new o ring did not help...." Read more

"...One issue I do have is that the nutrients had leaked all inside it’s bag. Fortunately it was sealed so it didn’t get on anything else...." Read more

"...if I can't figure out a replacement for the gasket because the top won't flood and it will be headed for the trash...." Read more

"The grommet in the reservoir for the 'sight gauge' leaks severely. Either the hole is too big, or wrong size grommet...." Read more

Bought it for orchids
5 Stars
Bought it for orchids
Bought for orchids to use leca as opposed to regular orchid mix because of the problems with organic grow medium, it's been more than 3 months and all of them are doing great, they're getting regular watering similar to the way they do in the wild very happy with results, in fact I was going to purchase another one for the rest of my orchids unfortunately the price went up so I bought it somewhere else
