Me too. My longest duration Bounty is running 17 hours from 5am to 10pm. Turning off any later would screw up my body clock when I walk past the farm room and I wouldn't be able to fall asleep. These things would be great for curing the short days of winter blues for folks living in the far north. Just sit a spell in your garden room and the melatonin will flow.

I hate wearing a Covid mask. I wear it for other folks sake. But I love my light mask. I may look like the Lone Ranger wearing it, but it's soft, comfortable, and my gardens don't keep me awake.

It is hard to breathe with masks on but that is the new norm  |

Mike, when you get a plant that produces exceptionally good tasting tomatoes, peppers or whatever, do you clone them with cuttings to produce the next generation plant? These AeroGardens would be great for cloning exact copies of plants and it would be just as easy as growing from seeds. Seeds are the result of cross pollination so there is variation in the plants produced by seeds.

No, I only grow from purchased seed.

Mike, did you only use the AG nutes for those Red Heirlooms?

Does everyone buy their nutes from AG, or is there a website where they can be bought for less? The shipping at aerogarden.com is expensive.

The liter bottle is $24 at AG with a coupon code, I don't know about shipping. It's $29 at Amazon. But with Prime you get free next day shipping with no minimum.

I usually buy it when it is on sale at AG. However as Mike said with Prime and free shipping that is not a bad deal.

Shawn, what prices have you seen for the liter bottle on sale? I just opened my last one.
I hate using the small bottles. I can't even feed all of my gardens with one of those. When I get those with seed kits, I pour them into the liter bottles.

I don't remember. I think the lowest I ever got it was for $19.99. But I can not remember how long ago that was.

I bought two bottles last year when AG had a 50% off sale for $17 and change each.
I am wondering if they will do a 50% off sale this year.

It is on sale now for $23.96 with their code. They also have free shipping for orders over $50.
AND if you have Rakuten you can get another 4% back.
For anyone who wants to join Rakuten, please let me know. I can send a referral and then we both get something extra ($ or %)

I sure wish AG would offer free shipping a couple times a year. Otherwise, you have to keep spending $50.

I am so sick of the mess! This garden got so ugly. I've eaten more tomatoes than I can take. Even after that, I cut down all four plants and still filled a quart zip-lock with ripe tomatoes. I had another half bag i tossed the over ripe ones in.
Great project. Next time only three plants.
