Easy gardening indoors all year round!
Plant Your Own Seeds!
I enjoy gardening, even pre-aerogarden. Upon receiving the aerogarden I immediately wanted to plant my own seeds - as I have previously, Jalapeños, for instance, are very easy to harvest and re-plant. Currently I'm on my first aerogarden setup, and I've replaced 3 of the plants from my herb chef pack with various pepper seeds. AeroGrow International seems to like to guard certain bits of information such as the on/off timings of the different settings, nutrient contents, etc. My hope is that we can collaborate and understand more about our aerogardens, and what we can do with them.
What I know:
According to the Herb Chef Pack manual,
the Herb / Basil setting keeps the lights and pump on for 17 hours and off for 7
The nutrients they give are also supposed to be specific to the herbs. Has anyone tried using an all around miracle grow or other nutrients in the aerograden? Does anyone know how the other plant settings affect light and watering?
If you haven't tried replacing the seeds yet, it is not very hard, and it is not necessary to buy the "Master Gardener" kit - simply push the sponge up through the pod of an existing kit, until the slit in the sponge opens. Remove the seeds (I saved them for later) and replace with your own seeds.
