My second Aerogarden purchase, January 12, 2009

I already owned a Classic version. I liked it enough that I wanted another and decided to go with the Pro 200 mainly for the extra light output. The unit is very energy efficient pulling an average of 61 watts when the lights and pump are on according to my kill-a-watt meter. The Classic version pulls a little bit less at 47 watts. The design of the bulbs on this model is much better as it delivers a more uniform light. The hood can also be adjusted higher than the Classic model making this model excellent for trying to grow your own seeds especially with the added Master Gardener Kit. Definately worth the extra money to buy this version. The Classic is great, but if I did it again I would have bought 2 of these. (And I haven’t had an issue with smoking bulbs)

Baby tomatoes in 4-5 weeks!, May 15, 2009

By

This review is from: AeroGarden Extra Elite (Lawn & Patio)

I love the Pro 200! I bought a Space Saver 6 originally and liked it so much I decided to get a Pro 200. The Pro 200 is so much quieter than the other Aerogarden and it pumps the water up over the roots so that even if the water level starts to get low, the roots still get water. The Space saver 6 lets the roots just sit down in the reservoir tank and the pump agitates the water. This can be a problem if you have new plants with short roots and forget to check the water level for a while (happened to me).

I started tomato seeds in the Pro 200 and then 4 days later in some Jiffy peat pellets for transferring outside. Currently the tomatoes in the peat pots are about 6 inches tall and spindly (very similar to previous years), however the tomatoes in the Pro200 are ~14 inches tall and 18 inches wide with 40+ blooms and some baby tomatoes started! I have never seen such thick tomato plants, even outside! I think the main difference is the extra grow light. This thing is bright! If I forget to close my bedroom door, it frequently wakes me up at 3AM when the lights come on.

I’m growing amazing lettuce in the other Aerogarden and it is doing well. Both work well, but if I had to choose I would pick the pro 200 in a heart beat.

Grows beautifully all year round – Bonus for those that suffer with S.A.D., November 27, 2009

I am thoroughly impressed with this Aerogarden. It has been a couple of weeks and everything is sprouting up and is growing amazingly fast and GREEN.

Amazon shipping fiasco:
First one Amazon shipped to us it was in a cheap cardboard box, you know the kind it is a flimsy cardboard you can tear through with a finger nail. It was inside a larger Amazon box but it was smashed on one side. Inside of the cheap box was the Aero garden smashed and all of the bulbs were broken. Amazon sent us one the next day along with a UPC for the outside of the box for the RMA. The next one was in a COMPLETELY different box, like from another company all together. I am not sure how we could get 2 different products from one manufacturer in 2 different boxes. The second box was a full color nice cardboard with all of the parts intact.

S.A.D.
If you have Seasonal Affective Disorder your psychiatrist or MD will probably prescribe a full spectrum light for you to have near you for the winter months. This grow kit contains 3 of those lights and if you place this near you say, when you are watching TV you will get many hours of natural light, while watching your plants grow!

Bonus plant growth:
That being said the lights are amazingly bright. They have to mimic the sun for goodness sake. I have this in my kitchen next to other house plants. As an added benefit is if you place the Aerogarden next to your other house plants they will get the benefit of all that extra light. I have succulents and cacti next to it and they are all growing MUCH better. Setting the lights to turn off at night is a breeze. Just hold the light on/off button on until the light button blinks meaning it took the time. It will then turn on 8 hours later.

Pros:
>> Grow anywhere at any time of the year
>> VERY easy setup – took 5 minutes from opening box until all set.
>> Pretty much fool-proof
>> Lots of extra light that will turn off at night automatically.
>> 7 spots vs 6 in a smaller model

Cons:
<< Bulbs will need to be replaced at $20 a pop x 3 is a bit extravagant
<< Chance to get a lemon from Amazon seems random due to the 2 separate ones they sent us. Makes me wonder.
<< Manual said to “Add 2 tablets to the water” on setup yet our kit only had these liquid nutrient things, which made us wonder if we needed to add 2 of those or are they more potent than the old tablets. Seems better to have liquid, just wish the directions were easier.

Overall a really cool way to grow all year and to have fresh herbs and other veggies at arms reach when cooking. Once the herbs are done we will be growing wheatgrass to use with our Omega J8005 Nutrition Center Single-Gear Commercial Masticating Juicer, Chrome and Black

Thank you for reading my review.

Great Item – Great Retailer, May 3, 2009

I’m amazed. I received my shipment from the Sprout House in just a few days.

I normally order directly from AeroGrow but this item has been out of stock for a while. Since I really needed to have them now in order to get seedlings started for this growing season, I was forced to order them from another dealer. The shipping charge was very reasonable and my seeds are now in these sponges happily sprouting.

(Also, if you save the plastic cones from the AeroGarden seed packs (after they have finished producing) this is the same size sponge that they use in the cones. You can use your own seeds.)

out of stock and a substitute needed, January 26, 2009

These sponges work great, but they have been out of stock for weeks. My husband built a coldframe for me and I wanted to get lettuce growing, so I decided to try using a substitute. I already have a product called Baby Blanket that I buy from the sproutpeople for sprouting very small seeds. I cut long lengths the depth of the plugs, then rolled the material until it was the size of the plug (sorry, it’s all done and I didn’t measure – maybe 5 or 6 cm)long. I did that on Friday and Monday most of the lettuce seed is green and growing.

This was WAY more work than using the plugs I buy on Amazon, but it worked so far.

Be careful, May 20, 2009

I have 3 7-pod aerogardens and wanted these to start ‘clippings’ from my herb plants. These sponges arrived in good shape and in great time, however, they are longer than the plastic ‘pod casing’ as well as thinner. I place the plastic pod in the garden, add the grow sponge and it tips over to one side while sticking up from the floor of the garden almost 3/4″. (So, I thought if I wet them first they might expand to fit the plastic pod casing correctly, but that didn’t do anything other than make a wet, soppy mess). I had to cut it with scissors and use the cut piece to cut even more and fit around the pod casing to steady it upright. Had to be careful, also, so the smaller ‘stuffing’ pieces don’t fall through the plastic pod openings into the water below. The small indentation in the top center for placement of seeds/clippings is almost a waste of time: had to slit that deeper also just to accommodate a few seeds. I didn’t dare attempt an actual ‘clipping’ because it would never fit without breaking the stem. What a mess. Had they been cheaper, I would trash them. And with this extra work and mess, they should be less expensive! Three stars mostly for Amazon’s prompt delivery, but as far as the product is concerned, maybe 1/2 star.
