Growing food in a HYDROPONIC VERTICAL GARDEN! | Farmstand by Lettuce Grow Review 

We have had a really tough time with this unit on our pool lanai. The lettuce grows well but beans, cucumbers, tomatoes and green beans have failed miserably even when the instructions have been followed meticulously. They now ask that I move the unit oustide the pool screen to better polinate the seedlings that need it. Well that is a no go for sure as the seedlings are advertised as self polinating. Heck, they can be grown indoors as well. I see your unit is in the greenhouse and seems to be doing great. I will do a reset and clean the unit and give it another chance, but if it fails me again, then it will be an expensive paperweight on my deck sadly. We have the 36 plant unit and with many empty holes they are telling me to plug those as they allow light into the unit which can cause mold/algar buildup (although I don't see any). They also tell me that if you don't have many of the ports filled with a seedling, that the other plants can get over-fertilized. Hmmm... never said anything about that before prurchasing. Growing your own seedlings would be they way to go to save you the $$$ as they charge $2.50 per seedling and that adds up (especially if your growing experience is not a good one). All in all... I would buy a smaller unit and see how it goes if you choose this route. Just want folks to know that their are folks who may not have such a good experience even though they are following the included instructions to they letter! Be well...

When she said the space needed is 3 by 3, and the annotation corrected her to say it's only 2 by 2, the annotation is wrong, because it's only counting the exact footprint of the unit, and not acknowledging that the plants spread out beyond the footprint and the 3 by 3 estimate is probably already a bit small, especially if growing big leafy produce like chard, tomatoes, peppers, spinach, etc; the plant stands look at least 2x as big with plants maturing in them. Still it's a very helpful and inspiring video! 🌱😊

Very nice video! I'm so glad that cucumber and zucchini are grown on this! Thank you for sharing this!! I'll be looking into this more.

I'm about to get one! I know it will pay for itself! Great video!

Wow!! 🙌🏻 How amazing that you grow cucumber, zucchini and tomatoes with this! Thank you for sharing! 🥒 🍅

Thank you for sharing the info and discount code, we'll be using that in a few weeks.

Do you think you can make a video for beginners on how to grow the tomatoes, strawberries, squash and cucumber successfully? i know nothing about gardening and i want to get one for my mom but want to make sure I give her good instructions :)

Loved this video!

Thank you!

Beautiful.

Excellent video!! Just preparing space to do this ... sweet timing!!

Thanks for the video! Are the plugs you started your own seeds in a good fit for the LG cups that come with the system? Is what you harvested towards the end of the video from your own seedlings? Thanks again!

Amazing

Now we need a fish stand something that makes fish.

How much did your utility bills increase?

I'm curious if you think it saves money on groceries at some point or if it's always just a luxury.

Sorry, I appreciate the efforts put into this video but, I have to say it - I could not watch the entire clip because of the annoying emphasis put on the last syllable of virtually every sentence.
