If you love indoor plants as much as we do, you’ll be thrilled with this new modular, self-watering system called LetPot. This growing system has a 30-day water tank and is fully automated and controlled by smart phone. LetPot is currently an already-over-goal Kickstarter that includes smart app, recyclable containers and solar-charging LED grow lights.
What can you grow with LetPot? Pretty much anything small like herbs and veggies, but the company claims you could also grow small fruit trees. You can preorder currently for an early bird price of $125. The coolest thing about LetPot is that you can fill the water tank once and it will last for 30 days. Great for if you travel, or, like us, just tend to forget to water your plants.

“Having indoor plants has been proven to benefit health. Not only do they create oxygen and remove harmful toxins, studies have shown that they reduce stress levels and boost mood,” said Andy Lin, founder and CEO of LetPot.
LetPot has a modular system of pots made from UV-resistant, food-grade recyclable resin so you can size up as needed to add plants. You can use it indoors or outdoors as the pots are waterproof and won’t fade in the sun. When you’re ready for more plants, you can expand your system with more pots one at a time. Hook up a LetPot system to your potted trees or add on solar-charging LED grow lights.
The water tank is 20 liters, so it should be able to handle larger plants for a few weeks as well. If you need to change your watering schedule, your phone app can add a watering with one click. This feature can be used for all plants at once or customized according to different species’ watering needs.
