AeroGarden Grow Anything Seed Pod Kit (6-pod)

I grow Two basil species, mint, dill and parsely. Out of the seeds it came with, One pod didn't grow. The pods were loose in the box, no padding. Even so, I randomly stuffed the soil back into the pods not knowing which was which. The mint sprouted first. I ended up removing it as I don't have any use for mint, but also, it was growing very fast. Next came the basil. The basil is sort of amazing how fast it grows and how heavy the leaves are. They SMELL! (Like basil) I harvest the Basil and Dill once a week. My toaster oven has a dehydrate mode, so I dehydrate, grind and store them in a baggy. Tonight it's Spaghetti with lots of fresh basil. (Not dehydrated and ground) You can also use your own seeds and buy the pods with no seed in it. I will be buying a larger model when they go on sale again.

Perfect “refill” for my Aerogarden. It makes me happy to have fresh herbs in the dead of winter! These supplies are good quality.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: These have worked well for most of our own seeds. It’s nice to choose specific varieties to grow.

I was excited to try this AeroGarden seed pod kit, but unfortunately most of the included seeds didn’t sprout for me. That was disappointing since I was hoping for an easy start. However, I found a good workaround by using the pods with my own seeds, and they worked great for that purpose. The pods fit perfectly and hold moisture well, making them reusable for other seeds. If you’re handy with seeds and want to experiment, these pods are useful, but if you’re relying on the kit’s seeds to sprout easily, you might be frustrated.

Any thing AeroGarden is awesome..

While it is possible to find hydroponic pod supplies for less money, Aerogarden's supplies are far superior. The pieces all fit perfectly together and the stickers that cover the pods (limits algae growth during germination) are sturdy and easy to use. Other brands don't fit as well and the stickers are nearly impossible to use. I get consistently better results with Aerogarden pods and Miracle-Gro nutrient solution (no A-B mixing) than with anything else I've tried.

Product arrived in a sealed box but was missing the grow domes that should accompany the sponges. The product description and image is inaccurate. Make sure you save your old domes from previous plantings to be able to use this kit.

I had purchased an off brand in hopes to save a few bucks and quickly learned my lesson after multiple seeds molding! These seed starters, however, never let me down! I love planting seeds from fun produce purchased from stores and farmers markets and these seed starters have always allowed me to do that with honestly little to no effort on my part. With the Aero garden and these seed starters I literally plant it and forget it.
