AeroGarden Harvest Elite Indoor Garden Hydroponic System with LED Grow Light and Seed Kit, Holds up to 6 Pods, Platinum Stainless

This is the perfect size hydroponic unit for a crowded kitchen counter. I’ve got a couple of other hydro units in other rooms that are too big for my crowded kitchen counters, but this one is just perfect for snipping fresh herbs while cooking/plating meals. It was super easy to set up, the menu of controls is intuitive and everything needed is in the box. Hydro is so easy - I’ve grown herbs and veggies, used my units to start plants for the garden and pot, all it takes is remembering to add water and fertilizer - and this unit reminds you of both! Disclaimer, though - the plants in the photo I transplanted from my other hydro units to have instant herbs in the kitchen, this is day 1 of this unit, day 42 of the plants since they were in other units - all that took was swapping out baskets and carefully feeding roots through the holes inthe unit top. I can’t speak to the germination rate of the pre-seeded pods, since I’ve only ever used hydro with my own seeds and had great luck with them (tomatoes germinate in 3 days, for example), but I put 2 of the pre-seeded pods in another unit and will update if they fail to germinate. I got it at 52% off list price, which was a fabulous price and I am amazed at the features packed into this small, light, but mighty hydro units. If you’re constrained in space but want to try hydro, get this!

I'm not new to Aerogardens...ever since my hubby bought me one years ago for my birthday I've been completely hooked. I have a bit of a collection but this was my first of the new model Harvest and I love it. I got it specifically for the new Microgreens kit because I didn't want to tie up a Bounty and the kit wasn't compatible with my other gardens (old models and a Harvest Elite Slim).For context, gardening is not my thing. I'm terrible at it- the only plants I've managed to keep alive are snake plants and even those have come close to dying. My Aerogardens though are a whole different story- it actually makes gardening FUN for me with much less mess than digging in dirt, dealing with pests, animals, etc. If you're just getting started with Aerogardens, this is the perfect size (6 slots) and the stainless finish looks like a fancy kitchen appliance. I love the lighted digital menu making it much easier to read and set than previous models. Keep in mind that this one is not wifi compatible (at least that I can find). You can plant lettuce, herbs, flowers, and now even microgreens. I don't recommend tomatoes or peppers in this garden though- they will quickly overtake it. If that's your thing then definitely look into a Bounty that can accommodate the height and the spread.If you're on the fence about trying Aerogardens or even gifting one, this one is a great choice that will keep going and going. These are especially great for folks who live in areas that they can't have a garden or they may want fresh herbs/veggies that won't grow certain times of year. I have had nearly zero problems with any of my Aerogardens going on several years now. A few tips that seem to work for me:- I'm bad about reading directions but definitely read them if you're not familiar. They will save you a lot of missteps and frustration.- Between starting new gardens, I do a deep clean of everything. Just a handwashing with dish soap and rinsed very, very well.- Keep them watered (but don't overwater). These are hydroponic plants- if they run out of water they seem to die almost instantly and it will be next to impossible to revive (in my experience)- Feed the gardens on the recommended schedule- Keep your plants pruned and under control, this will help them stay healthier, fuller, and contained where they should be in the garden and not causing problems with other plants.- Definitely look into spacers (they're available on Amazon). They're recommended for tomatoes and peppers but I've found them really helpful for large herbs like basil so it has more room to grow.- Replace the filters in the water basins periodically. They last a long time but after a while they degrade, rip, etc.I'm a major Aerogarden devotee and don't think I could (or can) garden any other way. I've grown countless gardens at this point including peppers, tomatoes, lettuce, microgreens, cucumbers, basil, chives, sage, cilantro, oregano, you name it. There is nothing better than your own fresh greens!

I’ve had this unit running for 56 days without any issues, and I absolutely love it. It’s much quieter than other brands I’ve tried, which has been a huge plus. I’m really enjoying all the fresh herbs and veggies it’s been growing—it’s been such a satisfying and easy experience. I’m already planning to purchase another one soon!

It works great, but the older model is way better, but you can't get one. They should have 'left it simple'. I did not find the lighting easier to the eyes. With that said, super seed starter and love how compact it is, the light raises as the seedlings grow. Perfect for gardeners

Got this for my younger daughter who is very interested in growing plants. Was a bit skeptical at first. The unit is much smaller than I had thought. But after 6 months of continuous use I'm more than impressed. We grow herbs and they grow like weeds. I've had more than I could ever use. The lights are on an automatic timer and the system alerts you when water or food is needed. It's pretty hands off other than constantly having to clip herbs and figure out what to do with them, which I consider a good problem to have. Great product!

Good product!! Don’t know why you can’t buy the light, this is my 3 rd Aerogarden only the light dies!! Need replacement lights??
