This is a wonderful way to produce a garden in the inside of your home. First the seedlings come up in days so there is a visable grow right away. Pay close attention the the directions for each Plant.I bought 4 with 2 on each stand and put them in my living area. Understand that by having this inside... read full review »

I bought this about 4 months ago.  the first one I got was the herb garden  I kept having a problem with the bulb blowing on just one side.  I must say their customer service was great for they sent me out replacements within one week.  I was not impressed with the what grew in the herb garden. ... read full review »

I just bought 2 aero garden minis yesterday and I am so excited! When I got home I put it together which was so easy to do!!! I planted my salad green lettuce seeds in one and red heirloom tomatoes in the other. The salad greens were due to begin to grow between 1 and 3 days and I can see the sprouts already! I find the sound of the water lightly trickling to be very peaceful like the sound of a small stream or one of those inside rock and water fountains that were so popular not to long ago. I can not wait to taste what I have grown. I have to wait just 3 short weeks for lettuce & 3 months for... read full review »

The Aero Garden it the best Idea for growing fresh herbs right in your kitchen .I love this thing it works well and just like the adds said it would .I planted my seeds and after 1 month I have all kinds of fresh herbs to use in cooking .Growing herbs indoors is also a great way to save money on expensive fresh herbs .This thing really makes them grow and Grow .Its quite clean and basically cares for its self .All you do is add water and plant food about once every 4 weeks or so whenever the little lights tell you to ,it really could not be easier.The Grow Light turns its self off and on as well...

I got the aerogarden and loved it right away. I love having fresh herbs. It is so simple to use and takes very little time. I love the fact that it has indicators to let you know when to water and give nutrients. It takes all the guess work away. It is very easy to assemble and all you have to do is put the seed pods in, fill to water level, add nutrients, and set the aerogarden to what you are growing. Its that easy. Also you have less to do as far as gardening chores. It totally cuts all those back breaking chores out. Which is lovely. You get to have your fresh herbs right in your kitchen without...

Dearly love the garden on the table, my Aerogarden named BoBo.  We were looking for something to keep the basil plants alive longer than 3 days.  I got so sick of paying $4 for a basil plant that would not live beyond a few hours.  The first harvest  I got way more basil than humanly possible.  But the other herbs were great too-mint, and chives, and fresh rosemary-it was so nice not having to worry about everything dying in the FL sun, or being covered in bugs.

Follow all directions carefully on the unit.  If you raise up the lights too fast to accommodate the basil, then basil will be all...

I purchased the Aero Garden about a week ago. I was hoping I would get some tomato seeds that came with it but all I got was herbs. This was fine with me but Herbs are the easiest plant to grow, they can take the abuse of not watering as often as they should as long as you have them in good soil. Me being a tomato lover, I decided to take a few cherry tomato seeds I had from the previous summer and planted them in the same pods that came with the grower. To my amazement, The tomatoes have come up with the other herbs. I guess you could say I am getting two for the price of one! This product...

Bought this from QVC, great price for unit and 3 seed kits.  Started with the lettuce in the spring, and we enjoyed lettuce throughout the summer.  Now I have started the herbs and they sprouted so quickly, I am looking forward to enjoying fresh herbs all winter, while my outdoor herb garden rests.  Only problem I have had is with the cilantro, it has not sprouted, will give it a week and then call customer service, to see if they will send me a replacement.

 This product looks terrific in the kitchen, but if you don't have the room, it may not be the place for it.  As the plants grow, you...

Bought the stainless steel model with all timer settings.Don't have to do a thing but watch the lights and add the nutrient tablets and more water whenever the small lights flash. Planted the tomatoes kit, which I bought separately. (Came with herbs -- I'll grow those later.) Six weeks have passed now. The plants are getting full. Can't wait for actual cherry tomatoes in another 4 to 6 weeks. Instructions are easy to follow. With the grow lights that come with the kit, you can place the unit anywhere. No window needed.

I received an AeroGarden as a Christmas present .. put in the pods on Xmas day and my herb garden is already sprouting !!  I can't wait until we have fresh herbs.   The only thing I wish I would have done was perhaps added in a pod or two of a veggie.  I didn't realize at the time I could have done that...after reading several different websites with reviews I'll try it the next set of pods.   Ask me in a few weeks how I still like the AeroGarden!

this was my favorite christmas gift last christmas. It's the gift that keeps giving. I have done the herb package and tomatoes so far. I think HERBS are really the way to go. FRESH herbs on hand 24/7. Tomatoes were neat to try but to me not really worth the effort.

I received my Aerogarden as a gift from my dad, as he has witnessed my multiple failed attempts to start herb gardens in the past.  These herbs are very difficult for me to kill -- in fact the main major die-off occurred during a move, when the garden was unplugged and shuttled around for a few days.

Anyway, the herbs are great and I sometimes have so many that I don't know what to do with them!  Caring for them is easy enough and since it's an indoor garden, you don't have to worry about bad weather or bugs. 

My garden was about a year and a half old when I noticed smoke coming out the back...

I received an elite 6 Aerogardenfor christmas.  I must admit it is fun to watch and all my herbhersbs have grown.  Negatively is the cost of the supplement and replacement products.  Absolutely ridiculous!  They are making a killing.  Also, the herbs packaged with the Aerogardenn Elite 6 would not be my choice.  The best growing is dill which I do not use.  The worst is chives which are so pathetic after months you couldn't even decorate a plate with them.  The thyme, oregano and mint are doing well and it is nice to have fresh herbs on hand. The unit is attractive and looks nice in your...

I have had my Aerogarden Classic for going on 2 years now, I've kept a kit in it this whole time, and I just couldn't live without it. I've grown herb gardens, flowers, salad greens, and now I have a cherry tomato kit growing in it. It has so many tomatos on the plants I've had to tie them up with pantyhose to keep the plants upright! The Aerogarden Classic does an amazing job growing plants, I've always had lush gardens that tried to outgrow this device every time. However, it does have some cons, the pump has a habit of becoming very loud or shutting down completely. This problem has been fixed...

Aerogarden = So easy! Set-up took about 15 minutes. I am by nature very thorough so I made sure to read and re-read the manual. Within days of planting I was growing herbs! The fastest growing listed in order are the Italian Basil, Purple Basil, Chives, Thyme, Dill, Mint and then last but not least Parsley. Once the Chives sprout they are definately the quickest growing. It's bee just 2 weeks now and many of my herbs around around 2 inches tall. I can't wait to start harvesting them. The growing guide does say the lower water and low nutrient lights will go off after 2 weeks but mine didnt come... read full review »
