So, after much thought, I've come to the conclusion that I need one more Bounty machine. I want to be able to grow the microgreens in the Bounty Kit, but I really don't want to give up one of my 2 Bounty machines for the microgreens. Therefore, 1 more is needed! So, I went online to check out options and I see that the Artisan isn't even listed on the Bounty page. Sigh. I really like the Artisan for the ceramic bowl. The looks sure, but I like the way it cleans up so easily and I am convinced that the ceramic bowl makes a difference for the plants too. Cooler in temperature, maybe even less fluctuation in temperature. I do hope they bring it back. Sigh. Maybe in new colors...  |

You already have a Bounty that works with the Microgreens Kit, right? The Artisan model, if you find it, may not have the kind of deck that works with the kit. Won't matter if you use a regular Bounty for the microgreens.
I'm going to grow microgreens regularly, too. They're great for sandwiches, and the light hood can be kept low. The Bounty that is growing them now blocks some lines of sight to the TV if the lights are raised at all high.

Then, a few months back, I found the white Bounty Elite Artisan on OfferUp and pick that one up too. About 3 miles from my house! LOL. So the Artisan model is the one that I used for my first Microgreens garden. If I buy another from AG, I'll choose the grey, if it is available. If not, the white one will be okay too. Either way, I just really like the ceramic bowls. A tad heavier to carry to the sink, but I'm okay with that.  |

You really did get a beautiful Microgreens garden!  My current one doesn't look nearly that good, because I didn't get the seeds all that evenly distributed. Hopefully you can locate another Artisan. If they were ever sold on Amazon, you might find a returned one in the Amazon Warehouse. |

Hello everyone, I recently purchased a bounty elite artisan from FB and it's missing the water fill cover. Does anyone have one that I can buy. Also does the seed starting deck fit the Artisan.

Hello, I recently purchased a bounty elite artisan from FB and it's missing the water fill cover. Do you know of anyone that might have one that I can buy. Also does the seed starting deck fit the Artisan. There are folks that 3D print those covers. Do a DuckDuckGo search or something. Or maybe look on Etsy. But first, try contacting AeroGarden. I'm betting they will have that part available for purchase. Probably NOT shown on their website, but in stock if you do a Chat or Email inquiry from the website or FB page. AG does sell a Seed Starting Deck for the Bounty machines...as well as the Microgreens deck too. That said, I prefer to use one of the Harvest Models for those things. #1, it is easier to switch out the decks on the Harvest. #2, the Harvest is a smaller unit and still provides more than enough space for Seed Starting and Microgreens, for MY needs. Good luck! |
