Click & Grow Smart Herb Garden Indoor

The Click & Grow Smart Herb Garden is a compact indoor herb set which will hold and grow up to 3 different plants, it will hold water which you top up very occasionally, and then the gadget does the rest. There is a small LED grow light that keeps the plants growing all year round, the water tank ensure that water is drip fed to the plants when needed and there is a light that will let you know when the tank needs refilling. The plants will actually grow faster while using less water too.
