Gardyn vs. Rise Gardens — Let’s Start with Rise Gardens
Rise Gardens’ Level 1 provides room to grow up to 36 plants in a cabinet-style wood and steel design, with cloud and charcoal color options. Looking to grow even more? Its expandable frame allows you to add up to 3 levels for an even more robust garden.
Rise Gardens offers a large assortment of produce seeds to choose from, including microgreens and root vegetables. Once planted, the system monitors light and water to optimize plant growth, and water sensors tell you when it’s time to refill. The included WiFi capabilities also lets you get tips and guidance through the app, and a plug-in for Amazon Alexa offers voice control options.

Built using an innovative BPA-free vertical stand, Gardyn’s Home 4.0 is the most high-density garden on the market, with room to grow up to 30 plants in only 2 sq. ft. of indoor space.
