Tower Garden

Do I need to be an experienced gardener?

No! ANYONE can grow a Tower Garden. There are videos, growing guides, and forums to help you on your journey.

If you purchased your Tower elsewhere, you can attend our workshops for a small fee.

Can I grow year-round in Tower Garden?

YES! The Tower extends your growing season so you can grow further into the summer and winter than you would in the soil. You can also grow year-round inside your home with the Tower Garden LED Grow Light Kit.

Where do the plants get their nutrients?

It took years of development and support from the worlds leading experts in plant and human nutrition to develop the proprietary Tower Garden Mineral Blend used in the Tower Garden. This nutrient rich plant food is the worlds first high performance ionic mineral solution specifically designed to grow all types of food and flowering crops. Unlike conventional hydroponic fertilizers, these natural minerals can grow everything from gourmet lettuce and edible flowers to beautiful vine-ripened tomatoes without needing additional additives.

How do I know that the plants grown in a Tower Garden are nutritious?

A study was completed at the University of Mississippi comparing field grown and aeroponically grown (Tower Garden®)produce and it was published in Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine. They found that “in conclusion, the study reveals that plants grown in aeroponic systems show a higher product yield and comparable antioxidant properties (using DPPH and cell-based assays) to those grown in the soil.”

How many hours of sunlight does it need?

Fruits and vegetables need UV light to survive, whether that comes from the sun or grow lights. Leafy greens, lettuce, and herbs need at least 5 hours of direct sunlight. Fruiting crops like tomatoes, squash, cucumbers, and peppers need 8 hours or more. Think of it this way, the more hours of sun they have, the faster they will grow, the more produce you’ll have! If you don’t have enough direct sun, you can grow inside with the Tower Garden®Indoor Grow Light Kit.

Crop specific growing guides can be found on each of the seedling product pages. Additional resources may be found in our blog.
