I sold my big Aerogarden Farm but kept a little six pod Harvest Slim. Today I planted leaf lettuce and hope to be able to make wilted lettuce in a few weeks.

When I know how much lettuce I’m producing, I’ll buy some pepper seed pods. I hope to grow four of the lettuce pods and two hot pepper. I want to keep enough lettuce coming to be able to make wilted lettuce frequently.

It’ll be lots easier to maintain this small unit. I loved the big Farm XL unit but it was too much work. Just carrying water to keep it going was difficult with my back. Another problem was the fact that my lanai walls will be painted soon and when they come to paint, everything must be moved out of the area. The Aerogarden Farm was HEAVY. My little Harvest can easily be moved. (I’ve even brought it inside when a frost was predicted.)

Eventually I may order another small unit, probably the AeroGarden Bounty Elite, a 9-Pod garden with wifi. It comes with pods, plant food, and even a trellis.

And I may get a Bamboo Garden Wall Shelf for $71.99 from Aerogarden.com. I’ll wait until my lanai is painted so moving it isn’t a problem.
