If you want to find out how our weed experiment went, watch the video above.
It tracks the entire journey from start to finish and youre gonna want to see how it ends.
The video above is pretty much all about weed.
The article, less so.
It looks more atthe Smart Garden 9 hardwareitself, but is just as fun.
So, uh, what is it?
As the name suggests, its a smart garden.
But what actually is that?
Basically, its a gadget that lets you grow plants while doing (almost) nothing.
Sounds easy!

What can you grow with the Smart Garden 9?
Well, the company sells a huge list of different plant pods.
All these seeds are planted in what the company refers to as NASA inspired smart soil.
What if you want to grow something the company doesnt sell?
Well, then you need the experimental pods.
These are what we used to grow the weed with.
Basically, theyre just lumps of the aforementioned NASA inspired soil mixture.
Everything else about the growing process is exactly the same.
…and does it work?
Oh man, it worked a million times better than I thought it would.
Im genuinely impressed and in awe of the Smart Garden 9.
Throughout my time, I grew two things: pre-seeded lettuce pods and marijuana with the experimental pods.
What more can I say than that?
It did everything I expected and more.
Alongside this, I was convinced the weed wouldnt grow at all and boy was I wrong.
Sounds amazing!
But, come on, what happened with the weed?
Well, itd be cruel not to give you some more insight into the process.
Basically, the plants grew, but never flowered.
In other words, the bits you smoke to get high never developed.
Oh no, why?
Effectively, this signals the changing of seasons, which makes it produce the buds.
This means we shouldve repotted them.
We, of course, did neither of those.
It wasnt the point of our experiment we wanted to do as little work as humanly possible.
Play the video and watch it all.
This article isnt going anywhere.

Whos the Smart Garden 9 for?
While I was growing plants on my desk, I found it very relaxing to have nearby.
