With the GreenBox, you can grow plants and mushrooms in different varieties and sizes. Our assortment ranges from herbs such as basil, sage and marjoram; leafy vegetables such as various lettuces, kale and chard; flowers such as cornflowers, petunias and marigolds; Fruits such as cherry tomatoes, chilies and cucumbers; Microgreens such as radishes, broccoli and mustard and Mushrooms such as Lion's Mane, rose siderlings, oyster siderlings and spoon-shaped siderlings. The range is constantly growing. So you can grow lots of exotic plants at home that you wouldn't otherwise get in the supermarket.

In addition, the GreenBox is also ideal for growing seedlings that you can plant on your windowsill, balcony or garden.

With a light output of 12 hours a day (recommended lighting duration for optimum growth results), the average electricity consumption is around 5.4 kWh per month, which corresponds to a daily additional charge of around EUR 0.05 (as of December 2024). Shall we give you an insider tip? Use our GreenBox Tent (already included in the package) to turn your indoor garden into a stylish lamp in the evening and reduce your ecological and financial footprint.

The components of each GreenBox that we ship are carefully packaged in a dry state and separately from each other: the wooden housing does not come into contact with water, the PlantPlugs are "unplugged" and tightly packed - and the seeds are also individually packaged separately. All this ensures a very long shelf life for the product and accessories. As long as they are kept in a dry environment, the seeds and PlantPlugs will last for at least 2 years. So you don't have to worry about whether your "green gift" will last until the holidays :)

Some plants (e.g. Asian herbs) can be harvested just 3 weeks after sowing. If you only pluck the outer leaves of the lettuce properly and do not damage the core of the plant, it can continue to grow without any problems. With herbs, it is best to cut off the upper shoots, which in turn are located above the leaf branches. This allows new shoots to grow again and again. If you repot your plants, you can even enjoy them for several months! The PlantPlugs are organic, so the plant can continue to grow in normal soil.

You can plant 8 plants at the same time in the GreenBox. They also grow at least 100% faster than on a sunny windowsill. If you plan to eat salad with your family every day, it's probably not enough. But if you plan to grow herbs and lettuce to add flavor to sandwiches, dishes or drinks, the GreenBox will fully meet your expectations. Our seedlings are strong and healthy and, with skillful harvesting, you will be able to enjoy the GreenBox for a long time. It is also an excellent incubator for plants, which you can then repot directly when they have grown large enough.

When you start a new set, the amount of water in the tank should be 1.5 liters. If the plants have already developed more roots, you can fill the water tank to the maximum - with a little more than 2 liters of water. In both cases, the plants will be supplied with water for an average of 14 days. At high temperatures, the water requirement can of course increase.

The housing of the GreenBox is made of birch wood from European forests. It is cut by laser and finished by hand. Each GreenBox is assembled by hand in our Berlin workshop and checked for quality. Part of our production process is carried out by the Berlin workshops for the disabled.

12 - 16 hours per day is the most effective lighting duration for your plants. You can use the GreenBox app to set when the light should switch on and off automatically. The light temperature and intensity can also be flexibly adjusted to your mood via the app. You can also use the GreenBox as a light alarm clock and/or intelligent daylight lamp.

With the GreenBox Tent, you can turn your indoor garden into a stylish designer lamp

No. The wooden housing contains a plastic tank. This in turn contains the insert with the 8 slots for the PlantPlugs. In the middle of this insert are 2 spout holes for watering. The GreenBox can be filled with water using a standard indoor watering can or drinking bottle so that no water drips onto the wood.

With its 40.5 x 21 x 34 cm (W/D/H), the GreenBox fits into any home and is an eye-catcher everywhere

Naturally! We also offer PlantPlugs without seeds. You can also let off steam with the seeds of your choice in our 24-pack Experimental Set. Individual seeds in single or 4-packs are also available in our store.

Both the water tank and the device for the PlantPlugs can be easily removed and cleaned. We have chosen high-quality birch wood as the main material to ensure that your GreenBox retains its clear design and does not discolor even after a long time. If you still want to freshen up your GreenBox after a while, this can be done in just a few minutes with some sandpaper. Then it will look fresh and new again even after a few years.

Our PlantPlugs undergo a special drying process at the end of their production in which no pest eggs would survive. However, should an external insect infestation occur, please contact us via our customer service. We will give you a few tips or replace the PlantPlugs if necessary.

Yes, the GreenBox is ideal for growing strong seedlings. After 2-3 weeks you have strong seedlings that can be planted out very easily.
