I got a bounty basic a few weeks ago and used it for some kale. The kale has been harvested. I’m trying this decide what to plant next. What are your favorites to grow in the bounty?

Congrats on the new Bounty. Favorites, everything 
Basil is a great one and fast grower. Oregano, peppers, tomatoes, cukes, I think I have grown so many things. Check out the members gardens and you can see what everyone has tried.
Let us know what you decide to grow |

Do you like bok choy/pac choi? I enjoy growing it in both Harvest and Bounty units -- it will reach baby size in just a few weeks and is so delicious in a stir fry.
If you'd like to try something that takes longer, try micro-dwarf tomatoes. I didn't think I'd like growing tomatoes indoors but it is a lot of fun and a learning experience too. Now I'm hooked and find myself shopping for micro-dwarf tomato seeds. A micro-dwarf tomato on one side of a Bounty and some basil on the other could be a good combo.

blueridgegardener, Almost everything grows in a Bounty--even a small cucumber like the Mini Munch, if you train the vine around the trellis! My favorites are cherry tomatoes (AG red, AG golden, Burpee Veranda Red), leafy greens (AG salad greens, AG romaine, AG Swiss chard), and flowers for transplanting to pots outdoors (AG cascading petunias, dianthus, marigolds, gazanias). The only limitation on what you can grow in a Bounty is height (up to 24") and spread. Peppers and tomatoes take patience, but are extremely rewarding once they begin setting fruit.
