'Véritable' is the name of an innovation that takes indoor garden systems to the next level with autonomous technology.
This smart gardening system is designed to provide optimal growing conditions for everything from tomatoes and basil to thyme and lemon balm, with minimal effort or intervention required. When the system needs its water reservoir refilled, the garden's LED lights shine blue to indicate that water should be replenished.
Véritable is equipped to handle the irrigation, lighting and nutrients needed by plants and uses its own Véritable Lingots in order to adapt to the needs of different plants. These Lingots contain organic seeds, soil substrates and nutrients needed to kick-start the growing process. These compact blocks simply slot right into one of four spaces in the Véritable unit, making it possible to grow a micro-garden of four different herbs or vegetables at once.
