A failed gardener, now a successful and grateful "Gardyner"
on May 31, 2026
Posted by: AnneP
from Denver, Colorado
I felt a little anxious spending this much nicer on something that I might not like. I love gardening but between my career, my kids, and my health issues, I just can't manage to keep up with a "real" garden. I was hoping that this would be something I could manage. But I worried that since I'd already failed as a gardener, I'd also fail as a "gardyner".
Well, I'm here with a five star review after a year with my Gardyn. I have easily kept up with it, even with two major product launches, a severe lung infection that left me on prednisone and round the clock nebs for months, and three close family deaths (both my husband's parents and one of mine).
So that's how easy it is to manage the Gardyn. We've started with the florists starter pack but over time we've adjusted the plants to better fit our lives. We use our ten credits per month to get whatever we want (including more "expensive" 3 credit plants and plant food). We now exclusively eat lettuce we grew ourselves. We have so many flowers! And we're eating handfuls of peas.
I am so happy that I took the risk! I know that technically I can manage without Kelby (the subscription AI assistant) but I'm pretty sure we wouldn't have living plants after all we've been through if it wasn't for the app keeping track.
We're planning on getting a second Gardyn at the end of the summer. We have the larger one, the Gardyn Home, but it's not big enough to grow enough strawberries and tomatoes, etc. My secret plan is to eventually have three because that should give us all the produce we need including cucumbers, tomatoes, strawberries, peas, lettuce, kale, plus various flowers and herbs.
The Gardyn makes me happy every day! We've had such an awful year and having my hobby back (in a new form) was so important for my mental health. And I think having the grow lights, flowers and green living things was good for my family too. It's also been a fun activity to do with my 14 who doesn't share many interests with me. They also love gardening and this is something we can do together.

Oh wow, this made our day (okay, our whole week) 🥹

You were never a failed gardener, you just needed a Gardyn that works with your life, not against it. And look at you now! Growing your own lettuce, eating handfuls of peas, filling your home with flowers... we are SO here for it 🌸💚

We're sorry to hear everything your family has been through this past year. We're so glad Gardyn could be a little bright spot through it all. And the fact that it's become something you and your 14-year-old do together? That's honestly one of the best things we've ever heard!

Thank you for taking the leap and for sharing your story with us. You're exactly why we do this. Happy Gardyning! 🌱✨

My first harvest was really nice but this third harvest was a real mess. I think this is due to Ateawberry plants way too many did not sprout. I think this is do to being told to change the sow date
Response from gardynBy Customer Success, Customer Success, May 25, 2026
Thank you for sharing your honest feedback. We’re glad your first harvest went well and we’re sorry to hear the third round didn’t go as expected, that’s not the experience we want for you. 💚

Strawberries are one of our advanced-level plants and germination can be tricky, so we completely understand the frustration. Under our germination guarantee, we’ll happily replace any yCubes that didn’t sprout so you can grow worry-free.

Our Support team will be reaching out to you by phone and email to review your setup and make sure your next harvest is everything it should be. We look forward to turning this around for you! 🌱

Awesome but I Have Notes

Product is cool but monthly AI is costly. Not as user friendly without subscription (surely) but almost feels extraordinarily difficult to use the product/app without. Need more guidance on environment as my success rate is low with fruiting plants.
Response from gardynBy Customer Success, Customer Success, April 26, 2026
Thank you for sharing your thoughtful feedback 💚🌱

We’re glad to hear you’re enjoying the Gardyn overall and we really appreciate you calling this out. Growing fruiting plants can be a bit more sensitive to their environment and it’s something we’re always working to better support.

We also hear your feedback on the membership and app experience. Insights like yours are incredibly valuable and help guide improvements.

Our Plant Expert team would be happy to help you optimize your setup and improve your success rate, feel free to reach out to support@mygardyn.com

We appreciate you growing with us ✨

We love our Gardyn!!

I received a Gardyn for Christmas & it is the coolest thing. We started with the kitchen herbs & leafy greens for the first run. There are a few things we don’t eat much of and a few others we wish we had more of. Next time we’ll probably select 2-3 lettuces, greens, etc & keep an abundant supply ready to eat.

Amazing Product

Have had one for 2 years - do our own cubes now but must say gardyn cubes are reliable growers. The gardyn itself is a constant talking point of visitors to our kitchen. Remember to trim your roots reguraly .. vigorous successful plants on top mean vigorous roots…
Response from gardynBy Customer Success, Customer Success, March 9, 2026
Thank you for sharing your experience 💚🌱

It’s wonderful to hear your Gardyn has been part of your home for two years and is still a conversation starter in the kitchen! We’re also glad to hear the yCubes have been reliable growers for you.

And great tip on trimming the roots regularly, healthy plants up top definitely mean active roots below. Happy Gardyning! ✨
