PICO: A garden in your palm. Growing is fun again!

Pico is a high-tech “home garden” that allows you to grow various types of plants in a very small space: an innovative system of telescopic led lamps simulates sunlight

Growing plants indoors around the year can be tough because they require lots of direct sunlight to thrive. Unfortunately, you can’t carry sunlight around to make sure your plants get the energy they deserve. Thanks to Pico, giving your plant enough light isn’t a problem anymore; with it, you too can #GrowLikeaPro. “Powered by high-performance power-efficient LEDs from OSRAM, Pico provides all the necessary wavelengths of light to replace the sun completely, and allow you to grow plants all year round. These powerful LEDs are chosen to support a wide range of plants and each color wavelength stimulates a specific biological function in plants”. The LEDs are mounted on an easily-adjustable telescopic arm—because plants grow like crazy under LEDs. The Aluminum heatsink makes the LED module rigid and lightweight; it also helps the LED chips last longer through its excellent heat dissipation.  Reminiscent of a vintage radio antenna, it grows alongside your plants. As they extend upwards towards the light, extend Pico by up to a foot in height.

Pico: a garden in your palm!

Pico can be recharged like any digital device, using a USB cable. Included with your Pico are “2 cables to get you started, a short double-ended USB-C and a 3 meter (10’) super-long cable, along with magnetic organizer loops to help route the cable around fridges, windows or anything else magnetic. You may use any phone charger to power the Pico and the optional Pico-timer helps you automate it”. Pico’s watering system makes sure your plants have as much water as they need—no more, no less—to sustain their health and beauty. The transparent window lets you know when it is time to top up, typically once a week. Employing just capillary action and gravity, this design does not require any power supply or involve a motor or pumps. Your plants will also grow quicker and healthier due to root oxygenation from below, provided by the ventilation holes. Pico will help you take your first steps into the magnificent world of growing plants. Easy and affordable, it ensures your plant journey is a success from the get-go!
