Important Update
PHLO Gallon Size Discontinued
At UGrowFood, ensuring a smooth and reliable experience for our customers is always our top priority. Unfortunately, after repeated shipping issues with the gallon-sized PHLO container—resulting in damaged shipments and unhappy customers—we’ve made the tough decision to discontinue the gallon size. While we do everything in our power to package items securely, we simply can't rely on shippers to consistently deliver the gallon container safely.
But don’t worry—you can still order PHLO in the same quantity! Instead of a single gallon container, you can order four quart-sized bottles. This solution allows us to better protect your orders during transit, and if something does happen, replacing a quart bottle is far more manageable than replacing an entire gallon.
What to Do If Your Order Arrives Damaged If you ever receive a damaged item, please document how the package arrived by taking photos or recording a video. This evidence helps us file claims with the shipping carriers (even though the process can be frustratingly slow). Rest assured, we will work to replace your items as quickly as possible.
We appreciate your understanding as we make this adjustment to ensure the best experience for our customers. Thank you for your continued support!

Water Filtration Systems
Lately, we've received a lot of questions about water quality and how to prepare water for hydroponic systems. First, don’t stress too much—plants can thrive in a variety of water conditions! That said, if you want to improve your water quality, we've put together a complete guide to help you through the process. You can check it out here.
Because of this growing interest, we’ve added water treatment options to our recommended products list—including high-quality water filtration systems. Not only are they beneficial for hydroponic growing, but they’re also great for personal use. Just make sure to review the pros and cons of each system, which we cover in our guide!
Gardyn Replacement Parts
Another hot topic in forums and groups is finding reliable parts to repair and maintain Gardyn systems. Whether it’s irrigation tubing, diverters, or other essential components, we know how frustrating it can be to track them down.
We’ve had many replacement parts available for a while, but now we’ve expanded our selection even further! So if you need parts, you’ll find a broader range in our recommended products section. Plus, we're working to make these even easier to find—possibly by setting up dedicated product groupings in the future. Stay tuned!
