Hase anyone used the new AeroGarden?
Posted by Devan from California on 2006-08-15 04:00:00

Has anyone used the new AeroGarden? It is an indoor hydroponic garden appliance that supposedly grows plants 5X faster than soil. It comes with pre-seeded kits, but I want to know if you can plant your own seeds in the system. Any help would be appreciated.

    Growing Greens Indoors
    Posted by Peter (TDGarden@aol.com) from Vermont on 2006-10-18 04:47:00

    I think this is pricey. I grow greens all winter, and sometimes in the summer between crops, in small trays. It only takes 7 days from planting to harvest. No Electricity. I grow Sunflower Greens, Buckwheat Lettuce, Radish Greens and Pea Shoots. They make a great salad, just sprouts and are a treffic addition to any salad. There are cheap kits you can buy at this website. I have not used this appliance but I have so much success with the soil-sprouts I don't see the need. Good luck and feel free to email me if you have a question.
