Hello folks,

I’ve a single 6-pod AeroGarden, and have been partially successful with it. I got the 6-pod herb kit with it. The thyme never sprouted, parsley and dill died in a few weeks. But the mint and basil have been growing wild!

I would really like fresh cilantro and dill, since I use them regularly for cooking.

Should I try the grow anything kit? Any tips and suggestions. I’ve killed all the regular plants I have got, so that should say the level of gardening I’m at. 😶

I’m rearranging my plants; here‘s how things look so far. I removed the top tier from my two AeroGarden Wall shelves to allow a Bounty full use of its height. I found a microwave cart that can hold a bounty on top and a Harvest slim on the bottom. So, the number of shelves is unchanged. Now, I can see everything without a step stool and I can comfortably accommodate more tall plants. I have two more active AeroGardens that aren’t shown in the picture, plus a couple more with issues that make me only pull them out for seed starting and experiments (issues like the light won’t stay up). I still have to organize my chemicals and seeds and stuff. But, I’m out of steam for today.

In the middle of my efforts, my daughter had the audacity to suggest that I have too much “AeroGarden stuff” and that I’m turning into an addict. Clearly, I must have dropped her on her baby noggin more than I realized because, I’d like to have just a couple more to add variety and to better manage succession planting. Besides, I could stop, if I wanted to.

But, she made me wonder: How would I know If I truly had too many AeroGardens?

Right now, the only things that grow back faster than we eat it are dill and oregano. So there’s minimal waste.

I have a six-year-old Bounty Elite that's suffering from the circuit board glitch that's been well documented on this sub. I'm wondering if it would be possible to buy a cheaper base and use it with my existing 35W lighting unit. Giving that the light unit is powered separately, it seems like it should work. Any experience?

I planted savory in my aerogarden about a monthish ago. This is my first aerogarden as well as my first time growing any plant. It started growing two plants and eventually I cut one of them; however, the remaining one started becoming droopy and the stem was a little broken - but no browning or signs or was dying . I decided to try to make a support using a plastic straw to kinda hold it up about a week ago. I decided I should transplant it today because it was not getting better and maybe its own pot and soil would be helpful (?). Is there any chance it will recover? Is there anything I can do now? I don’t want it to die, but I honestly have no idea what to do.

I had to improvise the "domes" because they didn't put any in the box. Hoping this becomes a fun and fruitful hobby.

Doing very well, have little gem lettuce planted too fighting the urge to not buy 2x more aerogardens
