This beautiful hydroponic garden system, called Foop, has been developed by the Japanese company Barakan Design. I love how compact an unobtrusive the piece is, blending beautifully with any surroundings. And as someone who has a very curious cat, I appreciate the closure, allowing the greens grow undisturbed. The Foop garden communicates with an app on your device, allowing you to track the growing cycle of the plans and add more water as needed. Available for purchase here.
IKEA introduces its own take on the hydroponic indoor gardening idea. The KRYDDA/VÄXER series can let you grow herbs and veggies on your windowsill, with the help of a few simple tools. The process has four steps: first get the seeds started in the absorbent natural sponges, then transfer the young plants into the containers with water-resistant pumice stones, set them up under a bright light in the gardening station, and add water until your garden has grown enough for harvest. Done. I can’t wait for the product to hit the shelves. Watch the video after the break to see it in action.
