The Modern Sprout Indoor Herb Garden Kit is a small mason-jar planter that grows herbs on a wick-based passive hydroponic system. Water and nutrients are drawn up to the roots, so forgetting to water or overwatering is less of a problem. It comes with the growing supplies and is meant for a sunny windowsill, and the jar can be reused for new crops. It suits kitchen growers with little space or experience; compared with electronic countertop hydroponic gardens it is simpler and quieter, but it gives you less control and no light of its own.

Owners treat it as an easy, attractive starter kit that makes windowsill herbs approachable, and it has wide name recognition. The main complaints are that it depends on good light and that the small jar limits how much you can grow.
This indoor herb garden kit is built around a vintage-inspired mason jar. The jar has a passive hydroponic system that works by wicking. It draws water and nutrients up to the plant's roots, so the plant is watered even if you forget or give it too much.
The kit includes everything needed to start growing. Add water and set the jar in a sunny window. It can be used year-round indoors and is reusable, so you can grow herbs again and again. No gardening experience is needed.
