Despite the fact that many consumers are now making the effort to adopt healthier eating habits, the cost of fresh, high-quality produce still remains inaccessible due to the traditional supply chain—as such, Helios Eos is now introducing a space-saving and affordable solution for growing fresh greens at home with its indoor microgreen garden.
GroFast is a small-scale indoor farm that takes up minimal space and has the potential to quickly grow antioxidant-rich microgreens, also known as the "baby of plants." In a matter of just seven days, microgreens can be grown and enjoyed within the comfort of an indoor setting.
The GroFast system is made up of a tray, a reservoir base and a clear, protective plastic top that keeps pests away. With these components, users have the flexibility to choose between using soil, compost or planting mats, as well as traditional or hydroponic growing techniques.
