Recommendations
Seeds
You can grow most small plants in this unit. We recommend herbs and leafy greens such as Lettuce, Basil, Coriander, Parsley, or Dill to begin with. We also recommend trying Lovage, Spinach or Thyme.
Nutrients
You need to add nutrients every time you refill once the plants germinate, usually once a month in the beginning, up to an average of once every 2 weeks (depending on the type of plant/temperature). Our suggested concentration ratios are:
- 5mL per 1L of water when used for growing leafy greens or herbs
- 10mL per 1L of water when used for growing fruiting plants such as tomato, capsicum or chilli.
This product comes with a 100mL bottle of liquid Nutrients.
Assembly
If you've ever setup something that's flatpacked then this will be a walk in the park for you! All you need to do to setup the TerraGarden is clip in the light panel to the strut, and clip that into the water basin. Add in your rockwool cubes to the netcups, add water and nutrients and you're good to go!
Maintenance
There isn't too much maintenance required with the TerraGarden - on average you will only need to re-fill water and nutrients every 2-4 weeks. When the water runs low, refill it and add 5-10mL of the hydroponic nutrients per litre of water into the water basin and mix! If anything goes wrong - troubleshooting is easy, the best way to get back on track is to throw out the old nutrient water solution (into the garden or some other plants) and start again with fresh water and nutrients!

Works Well ![User picture]()
The terragarden does 16hrs on, 8hr off and varies on it's timings. But overall very happy with it and thinking to buy another, will finish comparing against the indoor smart garden combo for value, colour of produce taste etc. A great new hobby for a small space.

Within 48 hours of planting lettuce, miniature cucumber and dwarf tomatoes I had green shoots showing! Really impressed. Looking forward to homegrown salad soon. Would be great if you could set different lighting at the same time (half/half) not sure how tomatoes will cope at same time as lettuce, but will see in a few weeks!

Absolutely the worst customer service experience ever.
Gathera (previously called Urban Plant Growers), are not a UK company, but they have a UK website and sell their hydroponic growing products to UK customers. (Gathera.co.uk)
However, if a product you've purchased from Gathera is faulty, you are on your own. They do not honour the process for return and replacement of faulty items/parts, despite what they say on their own website.
I purchased a Terragarden from Gathera in December 2023. In April 2024 the internal water pump failed.
I emailed Gathera, and Tamara (their support contact) emailed me with instructions on how to dismantle and clean the pump.
I duly followed these instructions, and sent photos to prove I had done so. (This entailed me having to borrow the correct screwdriver head for the job).
But the pump still doesn't work. It is clearly an electrical fault and the only way to resolve the problem is for Gathera to supply a replacement pump.
A submersible pump is an important part of the hydroponic growing process, but it's not a particularly expensive item, so a replacement should not be a big deal for the retailer.
However, Gathera have stopped responding to my emails asking for details of how I can send the faulty part back to them for replacement (as per the instructions on their website covering faulty items).
This company are based in Australia. It's become obvious that they source their products from China (not a problem, many companies do this), and have a consignment shipped to the UK.
Despatch to UK buyers is probably through some sort of UK based fulfilment centre, whose purpose is only to pack and post purchases, not to deal with faulty items, replacements etc.
So , the bottom line is, Gathera.co.uk is more than happy to take your money through their website, but is not interested in fulfilling their own after sales customer service obligations.
