Perfect gift and salad from your kitchen.

Good for you. Good for the planet.

A West Kent smart garden helps you grow fresher food at home, with less waste and fewer food miles.

🌱
Sustainability

Windowsill to plate.

Zero food miles, zero plastic. Up to 90% less water than outdoor growing. Pick only what you'll eat, nothing wilts forgotten in the fridge.

🌱
Sustainability

Nothing hidden.

Zero pesticides, herbicides or sprays. Grown without soil, harvested at peak nutritional value.

🌱
Sustainability

What supermarkets can't sell.

Flavour fades the second a herb is cut, so most reaches you days too late. Snip yours 30 seconds before the pan: oils intact, flavour at its peak.

Planted six seeds and they've all taken. It'll be interesting to see how they go.

Tomato Seeds

We first bought the 5-pod device just to try it out, but quickly moved on to the 21-pod device, and it's a bit addictive.

West Kent Smart Garden Deluxe – 21 Pod Indoor Herb System

We're very happy with our hydroponics devices, and we're learning slowly the best way to handle things. You really need to get organised to do it properly.

Taste of Summer Seeds Pack

I bought the two bottles of nutrient, and I'm just amazed at the results, even though we've only just started this journey.

I'm really happy with my 5 pod system. I've used others that were more complicated but the simplicity of this one is attractive. I expect good yields. It also tucks nicely into a corner of my kitchen.

West Kent Spares - Black 15 Pod Base

If you grow hydroponically and want to work with a business you can trust… look no further than West Kent. I have been growing hydroponically for a few years now with great success. This year, I hit some problems (these things happen). Gemma at West Kent went above and beyond to provide amazing customer service and has problem solved my issues to my complete satisfaction. Thank you Gemma!

I recently purchased the 5 Pod system and was very pleased with it, so much so I purchased the 12 Pod one. I have only just started to use the 12 Pod so not much to report on this currently but so far all is looking good. But the results from my 5 Pod has produced 5 healthy tomato plants, which are continuing to flourish since being potted on.
