• Gardening and growing your own plants is a rewarding activity, but it's not the easiest practice to master, especially when you lack time or patience and when there are factors you can't control such as amount of sunlight.
• The Click & Grow Smart Garden ($199.95) is a self-watering system that allows even the most amateur gardeners to quickly and effortlessly grow herbs and vegetables. 
• It does so without using GMOs, pesticides, insecticides, or other harmful substances, putting you in full control of the food you grow and consume. 
• We tried it and were impressed with how well it worked and how truly effortless the process was. 

Though I personally don't possess a green thumb, I've always envied those who do successfully nurture their plants. Traditional gardening takes skill, patience, and work that pay off in beautiful and delicious results, but can be intimidating to beginners or unappealing to busy people.See the rest of the story at Business Insider
