Disappointed
We had the paid version of this app for the first year and we used all our plant credits and had a huge back stock so we decided not to renew. The free version of the app is so useless. Yes, you can schedule your lighting and watering schedules. That’s about it.
The app no longer gives you reminders for the basic maintenance schedule for your device as of a recent update. I am so disappointed that the journal feature is not available in the free version. We can’t even track our maintenance schedule there. On top of that, the membership is crazy expensive. If it was like $5/mo to access the app features and get no plants, that would be one thing but I cannot possibly justify the cost when I have a closet full of pods already.

Poor app in 2026
No off-hand metrics, schedules, histories, basically just a sales gimmick wrapped in an app
Misleading Pricing
I bought the Gardyn as a birthday present to myself and since, I have come to absolutely LOATH this company. The pricing is 1000% misleading. After spending $600 for a plastic tub, you expect us to pay $30/month with a two year commitment (that’s $700 people!!!) to keep it going? To be clear when you first buy the Gardyn, they give you two weeks of access to “Kelby” the “ai” assistant that tells you when to water, trim, etc. Yet the app never publicly lists any kind of subscription costs. The actual cost is over $30/month unless you sign a multi-year deal which more than doubles the cost. This is misleading marketing at its worst. The only green you’ll be seeing is the $$$ you constantly throw away to keep this POS going.

Fun without the sun
I have had my unit for about a month growing is easy enough and I am currently harvesting so thats been awesome flavor is good fresh the only drawback is the expense at this point not sure its cost affective I don’t like that you need to purchase PVC caps that are way over priced I think that should all come with the initial purchase then only pay for replacement or additional items
