I'm surprised! Usually it's women who can't measure. You know why? Because we're always told something is bigger.........

I have the hood click up two notches higher....



Everything is rather healthy



Root growth is rather strong too

I don't even know what to do with basil and the other stuff

I should of started lettuce....

make some pesto
or
roll up the leaves length-wise and cut into ribbons (chiffonade) and put in salads or soups
or
make some infused oils
or
Tomato-Mozzarella-Basil salad - slice and layer the tomatoes and mozzarella (or provolone), top with fresh basil leaves and your favorite dressing.

I eat BULK. All those herbs would be gone in about 10 minutes... They are cool looking though

I'm at the highest height the lamps can go now.

This can grow herbs for sure.

[WNYresident]

Well this does seem to grow herb just fine

We just found out the hard way, if you try cherry tomatoes, make sure you have a support system.
We ordered the trellis system from Aero Gardens' site, but it never arrived. I tied the stalks to the pole that supports the lights using strips of fabric. So far, so good. There are tons of blossoms on each plant!

The herbs are doing well, although I noticed the mint doesn't taste very minty. Maybe it's not old enough yet.

ot oh

Mint does a little better in the taste dept if you bruise it to release the oils. Roll it with your fingers or squeeze it and let it sit for about 5 min. Should be better!

I had pump failure!!!! I went to Harvest Moon and as always their service was excellent. Got my pump and will post tonite how easy it was to change. I could have just got a propeller to replace but they gave me the entire pump.

I gave all my herbs away. There just wasn't enough bulk food usage in herbs to hold my interest. I have tomatoes started now

[WNYresident]

Started tomatoes a couple of weeks ago..... I grabed the wrong seed kit for my areogarden but I'll make due with waht I have. I'll just prune and shape them to maximize tomato production.



They are growing much faster than the herbs did.



Lots of new healthy growth.



Healthy root growth too
