Our Vermont-made SunLite® Gardens employ the latest in lighting technology to give your plants the ideal quality and intensity of light for optimum growth. You can start plants from seed, grow herbs, houseplants, or even try your hand at growing orchids. Our new, ultra-light fixtures weigh just 6 lbs and have a slimmer profile to give plants more headroom. They measure a full 14" wide to ensure even light coverage across each shelf. Inside, there are two T-5 bulbs that produce an abundance of brilliant, full-spectrum light. These bulbs use 45% less energy than standard fluorescent bulbs and provide up to 10,000 hours of use. All fixtures have their own pull chains for easy height adjustments and electronic ballasts to eliminate any annoying buzzing.
This kit has everything you need to grow plants indoors, at a great price! You get our new and improved T-5 3-Tier SunLite® Garden, four APS-24 seedstarting trays with water gauges, two 6-quart bags of Organic Seedstarting Mix, one 2.5-oz. jar of PHC fertilizer for seedlings, 50 wooden markers and a timer power strip.

I would recommend this to serious gardeners.I like that the product is on casters. It will make it easy to move plants out doors to harden. The chains and timer on the lights help control the amount of light on seeds and plants. [...]

Comments about T-5 3-Tier SunLite Garden with Jump-Start Kit:
I've been coveting lighted grow shelving for a long time, and made do with homemade for years. This year, I finally treated myself, and boy, am I glad! This product is fun and easy to assemble (took me about an hour by myself), and it works exactly as you expect. My tomatoes, peppers, lettuce, and flowers are doing wonderfully, and in about three years, this product will have more than paid for itself -- growing from seed is MUCH less expensive and a lot more satisfying, and this product makes it easy. I have several jealous friends now, too...

The mechanism for moving the lights up and down in excellent;however, it could use more head space for the taller plants that I want to winter over. The starter set that I purchased along with the Sunlite Garden was awesome. I have everything I need to get started planting seeds next month.
Assembly was a bit tricky for someone who isn't very mechanical like myself. Thank goodness my husband offered to help!

Comments about T-5 3-Tier SunLite Garden with Jump-Start Kit:
I am using my 3 tier SunLite Garden as an herb garden and also as a seed starter for future planting when the weather gets warmer. Since the broad spectrum lites imitate sunlight, the seeds and seedlings get full sunlight even in the darkest of winter months. If I had more room I would have a second or third SunLite Garden. By using a dehydrator, I am able to supply my family and friends with freshly dried herbs which are more tasty than store bought spices and herbs.

Comments about T-5 3-Tier SunLite Garden with Jump-Start Kit:
Very easy to assemble. The only problem I had, which was a slight one, was plugging in the short light cord on each light fixture which connects all three lights so you can turn all the lights on at once. There is lots of space for seedlings and the lights are adjustable so you can have seedlings at different stages of growth. Easy to move even when fully loaded. Excellent product.
