aerogarden


Recommended Posts

I got one last year for Christmas from my mom. My oldest DD loved it. She liked to cut back all the spices and dry them all over my fridge! (She would use potato chip bag clips with the magnets and hang all the spices from them upside down to dry) I personally did not care that much for it. It took up a lot of counter space. I did not have any other place to put it. And, it was noisy! There is an air pump (like for a fish tank) that kicks on and off at all hours of the day and night. Then the light is very bright and is on for like 50 hours a day! :( Let's just say I was really glad when all the plants finally died! When we walked thru the stores we would see the replacement plants and they were expensive. Like 25 bucks! I'm sure you can find them online cheaper but it was a good excuse NOT to buy more! Sorry honey 25 bucks is ALOT of money! LOL So mine now sits in the basement... anyone wanna buy a used aero garden??? only used once! hehehehehe

I know it's a bit more than you'd like, but I found the 6-pod Aerogarden on MarketWarehouse's website. The website has great reviews and looks to be scam-free.

Shipping over $100 is free, and you can substitute the gourmet herbs for any of the other varieties for free (except the salad super kit). Use the code "ebayt" to get another 10% off. I ended up buying mine for $134 shipped.

I changed out herbs for salad greens, as I already have an Aerogarden with the gourmet herbs and have the tomato kit to plant in my new one.

In regards to what wldfire68 wrote, it is a bit noisy. The pump and lighting systems run 15 hours/day. By plugging mine in at 5, I let it run all night and rest during the daytime, when the natural light hits it. The lights are crazy-bright, but if you keep the Aerogarden in a corner or let it act as a nightlight in the kitchen, you should be fine. My 3 roommates and I enjoy checking on the plants when we get home from work and are looking forward to our first harvest this weekend!
