Grow It Yourself | GIY
Grow It Yourself is innovative smart system that creates ideal environment for plant growth
Grow It Yourself | GIY is an automatic planter that allows users to grow fresh plants from seed to maturity inside their homes using a new method of irrigation called aeroponics. The growing system monitors and controls the environment, making planting worry free and possible in any environment or season.
The GIY uses 98% less water comparing to conventional systems, and accelerates the growth up to x5 times!
GIY allows the user to manipulate the plants' color, crispness, taste, leaf size and vitamin content by providing full control over the light conditions and 'climate' inside the growing chamber. Due to extensive research on plants morphology, GIY implements features that allow the user to create and customize the desired outcome
