 Gourmet Herb - mixed success - poor selection September 11, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
My herbs initially grew far slower than the instruction book indicated. However, once they did get going - wow! I am having to clip every few days. I am using the classic aerogarden.
There are a few disappointments, however. The choice to replace cilantro is really a disappointment, as it is an herb I use far more frequently than thyme. The basil is very overwhelming - two varieties are just too much. I can grow this one outside no problem, so I would have appreciated more delicate herbs. In any event, I feel like I am really wrangling with it to keep it from shadowing the others. The parsley has failed to grow very thickly, which gives me only a little every few weeks. The biggest disappointment are the chives. Only a few sprouted, maybe enough for 1 person every few weeks. Now that I think about it, the basil and mint are the only plants that have truly grown satisfactorily. Honestly, I would hesitate to buy this particular kit again. Instead, I will stick with the cherry tomato kit for the winter and probably the salad greens in the summer.
 Mold, but replaced by company September 9, 2008
Three of our seed pods started growing mold, but the company sent out replacements. The other plants have done quite well.
 Looks like 70% of Cherry Tomato Reviews are NEGATIVE August 23, 2008

I am working on my second Cherry Tomato seed kit. After about three months, the first crop provided about eight Cherry tomatoes. Hardly a bumper crop. During the growth I had to clean out the pump which got clogged with roots (more on that latter). So I figured, ok, I had to disturb the root system when I had to clean out the pump, so perhaps that was the problem.
I started a second crop of Cherry Tomatoes about three months ago. So far, I have had one marble sized yellow tomato. I also have an additional two, marble sized, yellow tomatoes ripening. I have not even seen any flowers on the two red tomato plants. The red tomato plants grow, but no tomato production.
I am running out of plant nutrients. I checked AeroGrows site, and they want a ridiculous price for an additional package of plant nutrients. Corporate greed at its worse.
I have read all of the reviews, and I see that about one-third of the Cherry tomato reviews are positive. That leaves two-thirds of Cherry Tomato reviews as negative. Adding my negative Cherry Tomato review drops the positive Cherry tomato reviews to 30% positive, 70% negative.
Given that we are all growing these things under pretty well controlled conditions, I suggest that the Cherry tomato seed kits might have a limited shelf life, and AeroGrow could be selling their old kits.
My negative review of AeroGrow's cherry Tomato seed kit on their site was NOT PUBLISHED. So I published my review on Amazon.
With respect to the AeroGrow garden, in my opinion, the location of the pump is flawed. It should not be located at the bottom of the tank because that is where the roots want to go. The pump should be located higher up on the tank, and it should be located in a position where it can be easily maintained, without damaging your crops. I hope someone else comes out with a competitive product. Frankly, I don't like the way AeroGrow does business.
 Salad every day! August 10, 2008
My husband and I have both gotten hooked on our AeroGarden. It's great fun to watch the plants grow every day, and my husband enjoys harvesting. There's just two of us in our family, and this garden keeps us supplied with salad almost every day.

This is a great product. Not to mention it is at a discounted price, which we all love. I would recommend this seller time and again simply for the ease of purchase and the quick shipping.
