Bought this as my office plants weren’t getting enough sun and moving them outside/ beside a small window wasn’t working. I was very happy to find them alive and well after a week away where this lamp provided the only light source
Wow, That looks great! Thank you for your review and Happy growing !
My cucumbers are growing much better now due to these lights! No longer 'leggy' due to stretching for sunlight
Very pleased with the sun shelf. Using it to grow seedlings before transfer outside. Peas, coriander, dill grew so quickly under the sun patch and already moved outdoors. Great to get an early start in our short growing season. Courgettes in the photo waiting for warmer days happily glowing under the sun patch and brightening up my kitchen. Lovely curvy design of the sun patch frame, good quality lights with great adjustability and well directed beam make this fit in really nicely in my home in lots of different places. Delighted it's now possible to grow veg really successfully in small indoor spaces. Love it.
I mistakenly purchased a Sun Shelf 3 Mini when I should have gone for the normal sized version. However, I was told that if I bought a 2nd Sun Shelf 3 Mini, it would be possible to stack them on top of each other therefore creating a normal sized Sun Shelf 3. Unfortunately, in order to attach both Minis together, you require a nut and bolt for both sides. Now according to the instruction manual for the normal sized version it states that it comes with a set of nuts and bolts to attach both shelves together. After communicating with Gathera, I was advised to find a wood screw in order to attach the shelves together. It would have been amazing if Gathera could have provided a set of nuts and bolts (which I would be happy to pay for) to attach both shelves. I have had to use four zip ties to attach both shelves as a stop gap but obviously would prefer something more permanent.
Bought the sunlight with timer and the improvement in health and growth is really good. The timer works well and is no fuss plus you can just turn it off and on using your phone… it is app controlled so a little tech knowledge helps
I am loving them so far. Not fully tested as my tomato plants are only about 5 - 6" tall, so the next test comes when I need to pot them.
Love to see our netcups fixing a problem with a competitor product! Thanks for the great review and hope the rest of the process goes smoothly!
Good value, east to use.
Thanks for the lovely review!
My tomato plant showing signs of malnutrition with patchy looking leaves in my Mr. Frothergills Hydrogarden Elite & I put 3 squirts of the Gathera nutrition into the system & now the plant looks so much better & it's actually started flowering! I'm pretty happy with that result & the plant nutrition from Gathera is simple to use without having to mix it up beforehand.
We're thrilled to hear that our hydroponic nutrients helped bring your tomato plant back to life and even got it flowering! ✨ Hydroponics should be simple and effective, and we’re so glad you found our nutrients easy to use.
With a reduction in mouths to feed, I have just repurposed my Family Farm to house 4 x 2L heirloom planters on the top shelf for zero-maintenance salad and leafy greens. I like the look of this setup - there will be a lot more airflow around the plants than the old basins had provided, and less competition for light, and I expect quite infrequent topping up of water/nutrients will be required. I also removed the middle shelf of the FF, and suspended a trellis in the gap ready for me to set up a couple of 10L planters and try my hand at tomatoes using the double-height space.
Thank you so much for your kind review. Great to hear your storey and see the confidence and ease of using @gathera products! Thanks again Lorriane and all the best ! Happy growing !
First of all- what a lovely professional company! I got a reply to my query from Tamara the same evening and she reassured me that the clip would attach securely to the tricky vertical banister and that the lights would work at an angle needed.And they do!
I didn't realise the lights are so bendy and adjustable.Fantastic product! I hope my half dead sun deprived plants come alive.Update in 6 months...
