Product Overview
The Harvest Elite offers a clear upgrade over the Sprout. It features 6 pods, a 0.7-gallon reservoir, and a 20W LED light with a grow height of 12 inches (30.5 cm). Additionally, it incorporates a digital display with buttons that simplifies programming light cycles and water/food reminders. Its stainless steel finish and color options—such as sage green, white, and gray—give it a more elegant look.
Key Comparisons:
-
Interface: Compared to the Harvest 2.0 base model, the Harvest Elite maintains the same water volume but improves the interface with a screen and adds a vacation mode, which adjusts watering and lighting during your absence.
-
Size & Space: Against the Harvest XL, the Elite is more compact and keeps the 6-plant layout; the XL offers an 18-inch height and a larger reservoir but lacks the digital display.
-
Value: Regarding the Bounty family, the Harvest Elite is more affordable. While it lacks WiFi and a touchscreen, it provides automated functions that the Sprout does not.
The Harvest Elite is an ideal middle-ground option for those seeking a modern garden without the price tag of a nine-pod model with connectivity.
