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.

This review is from: Hydrofarm MGSYS Hydroponic Megagarden System (Lawn & Patio)
i am an experienced hydroponic gardener and i love this setup. i bought it and all you need is a light water and some ph up and down. i would also recommend a digital ph and ppm meter .i use two of them and going to buy 2 more alot of poeple like me build there own but when you figure hydroton and nutes its well worth the money . mine came with general hydroponic nutrients and thats what i use. great setup and great deal i would also recommend using 2.5 ml of 35% food grade peroxide to avoid root rot if youre res temp get higher than 70 degrees J.

This review is from: Hydrofarm MGSYS Hydroponic Megagarden System (Lawn & Patio)
I received this item, although I thought I had ordered the smaller system (Emily's hydroponic garden system) which has only 6 plants. I was a little hesitant at first since it was much bigger than I expected, but after putting everything together I am very satisfied. The instructions for assembly and use are excellent, but missing teeny details here and there (for example: in order to install the pump you have to cut a very small hole in the red plug). Otherwise everything you need to start a hydroponic garden is included in the box (minus a light source, of course, and an acid solution to adjust the pH of your water if necessary). I have started many seedlings and other small plants in the system and I am planning on transplanting some plants from my outdoor garden as well. The seedlings are growing faster than I ever imagined, even without a light source! I have the system set up near a window, but do not have a light hung over it yet. All in all, it only measures about 2'x 2' and it is incredibly easy to use. I would highly recommend this product to anyone looking to start their first hydroponic garden! I am very excited to continue growing throughout the winter!

This review is from: Hydrofarm MGSYS Hydroponic Megagarden System (Lawn & Patio)
What a great item.. I have harvest my first crop of lettece and other veggies. It took no time at all to go from seed to plant. This was great fun for my kids to work with. They really enjoy watching the plants grow. This really couldn't be easier. Everything is on a timer. The only thing I need to do is make sure that there is enough water and nutrients for the plants..
