Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Don't bother
Don't bother spending the money. Re-use the pods you already have. I've picked up Rapid Rooters and Dyna-Gro 7-9-5 plant food from a hydroponics store, and I've had no problems growing two batches of lettuce and herbs from my own seeds.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Dont waste your money
Dont waste your money on on this. Use rock wool instead. I called the company asking what kinds foam is in their kits and they wouldn't tell me they described it as bio degradable special foam - so I called a couple of foam companies asking questions and experimented a bit. What worked best for me and is drastically cheaper is rock wool instead.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Easier, but overpriced
This kit saves you the time of making your own, but at three times the cost. Anyone can buy bulk planting sponges or rock wool and make their own for a couple dollars. However, if you don't care about the price and want to make Aero Garden planting fast, easy, and thoughtless, then this is made for you. The kit is great, just uncomfortably priced for what you get.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Not much there for the money.
This package contains some foam seed holders, a few plastic cup sections to hold them, and some clear "caps" for the seed pods. Also, there are about a dozen blank circular papers to stick on the seed pods to identify your crop type. That's it!

Re-use the original pod components and stay away from this item. $39.00 for $2.00 worth of plastic, paper, and foam.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Clearly handly, if a bit overpriced
Bought both the aerogarden, and master gardener deluxe kit, for my sister with the brown thumb. Fit and finish seem good, ease of use can't be faulted, and she's already got plants growing in a remarkably short time, which given her success at converting seeds into little blobs of mold is nothing short of miraculous. OTOH, a quick review of what goes into it, from the perspective of a mechanical engineer, suggests that it's vastly overpriced. I do hope they'll be bringing the price down in months ...
