The Advantages of An Aerogarden

By Kristaria Dawson

So what is an aerogarden, you ask? This product is a garden that you can have indoors; it makes use of no dirt and allows the owner to grow beautiful garden flowers or other plans in 365 days. Even a fool who has consistently proven themselves void of a green thumb can make use of an aerogarden and be successful in the endeavor. There are no weeds to pull and no guesswork involved in the use of this product. No experience is required; the internal electronics of this system take care of your plants' lighting requirements on its own by turning light on and off when necessary, and it prompts you when your plants need water or nutrients.

You can obtain several advantages using the Aerogarden. It can bring color and life to a dull area in your home or office; bring garden indoors during critical gardening weathers such as fall or winter; grow fresh flowers all year round to liven up your home; start seeds indoors and transport to your outdoor garden; harvest fresh herbs for cooking; and freshen the air in any area in your home or office.

Imagine the situation where you just got home from a hectic day, you go to cook dinner and realize that you are missing vegetables or a specific vegetable that you needed for the recipe. Wouldn't it be nice if you could have these items right at your fingertips? An aerogarden provides this unique opportunity. With the seed kits available for purchase, you can grow tomatoes, beans and peppers right on your counter top in as short as ten weeks.

Growing herbs in your aerogarden is a breeze! Anyone who has been cooking for long enough realizes that there's a difference in the taste of fresh herbs and spices in comparison to those you can find in your local supermarket. Whether you prefer basil, thyme or dill, you can harvest these herbs using a custom herb kit made for the aerogarden in as little as one month!

The Aerogarden also offers kits that include flower seeds such as scented blooms, mountain meadow, splash of color, incredible edibles, English cottage, cascading blooms, lots of lavender, and custom flower varieties. The flowers begin to bloom in 30 days but continuous blooms will last up to 4 months.

Though their names make them seem more complicated, the garden starter tray and master gardener deluxe are aerogarden kits that are very easy to use. These are aimed at allowing you the opportunity to cut plants from your outdoor garden and grow them inside.

Regardless of which variety of aerogarden kit you decide to purchase, everything you need for growing and harvesting the plants for an entire season is included. You receive plant food, a guide for tending, as well as the seed pods. The things you receive are designed specifically for the type of plant they accompany; this means the right nutrients for optimal growth and tips for ensuring health and stability. You will even find that there are answers to frequently asked questions and in the herb and vegetable varieties, recipes for using your new plants. In some kits, you get bio-dome seed pods which simply have to be plugged in the aerogarden to grow without any tedious planting, as they are mini-greenhouse surroundings for your seedlings.
