Definitely in spurts. My first 4 or 5 were used. Then in 15 Sam's Club had a sale on Ultra's and later Extras. I think I bought 8 over a years time. The 4 original bounties were all at the same time, too, at least the same year.

I'm not growing the Moruga Scorpions. I ordered powder, not seeds. I'm going to make sauce with that. I'm also not growing the Trinidad Chocolate Scorpions. These produce large pods, but not as productive as other super hots. I didn't know that when I ordered the seeds.
I am growing two gardens of the NuMex Lemon Spice Jalapenos. The Orange Spice version was so successful, I'd love success like that on a larger scale. I also grew the Pumpkin Spice with less success than the Orange Spice. (I terminated that garden when most of the peppers were still green)
I am hesitant about the Sweet Apple Kambe seeds. These are supposed to look like an apple or tomato with up to a 5 inch diameter and 3 inches thick. This sounds like a wonderful sweet pepper. But this is my second go round with these. No seeds germinated, last go round. These are new seeds.

I think I tried the Sweet Apple ones. If I am correct I was not that successful I do not think. I know how successful you were in tour Orange Spice that I may have to order some

I had run across this forum in some google searches. Finally getting around to sign up.
I think the forum name (Aerogarden Addicts) seems a bit extreme; as I turn my head to see the two Bounty Basics, Harvest, Harvest XL, and Farm 24XL I have. So, never mind then....

What? you only have 5 aerogardens? You're not addicted, yet. I just bought number 12 in less than a year.
Do take the time to learn how to post pictures. We love pictures, here. I especially want to see that san marzano tomato thriving in a Farm!

At 35 days the San Marzano is about 18 inches tall and has 3 flowers that I am "buzzing" with the be the bee.
What is the best way to do pics? I see the "Member's Gardens" requires 25 posts.

I use Photobucket out of habit, but if I were starting over I would use Flickr. If you want your own garden, you can pm our admin Shawn for more information!

Hmmm, so I'll see about getting my Raspberry Pi home server going again to host the pics. Maybe next week.

The admins don't want you to just add pics as attachments cause it eats up their storage space.
I was able to create a link to my own website. That worked fine but I ended up creating an account on imgur.com. It's rather wonky but it works just fine.

The Aerogarden sales are busting my budget! I bought my first Bounty in January 2022 and thanks to the impossible-to-resist-sale on the Bounty Elite yesterday, there are nine! Here's the lineup: Bounty -- Fever romaine lettuce (gorgeous red and green), and Li Ren Choi (bok choy) Bounty Elite -- green AG romaine lettuce and chard Bounty Elite -- 2 AG Golden Harvest tomatoes (just germinated) Bounty Elite -- on the way Harvest Slim Elite -- Chijimisai Harvest Slim Elite -- more of the Fever romaine lettuce Harvest Slim Elite -- AG heirloom salad pods Harvest Elite 360 -- AG Genovese and Thai basil Harvest Elite -- empty at the moment but probably going to grow more of the Li Ren Choi. It is my favorite bok choy of the several varieties tried so far. Seeds are from Johnny's. My plan is to get set up with Flickr so I can share some pics, but I move slow -- unless I'm ordering AGs on a flash sale!

Na, na, na, na, na.... I've got 13 aerogardens! ...
Hmmm... does that make me the winner or the loser in this game?
