It feels good to start fresh projects doesn't it? I was supposed to start this past weekend but did not. I REALLY need to.

Yes it does! I should've started them earlier, but hey, at least it's done now. I did this and another when I got home late at around 8:00 which is usually my useless hour, unless I'm cooking, so I am rather proud of myself that I did it.  |

Updated pic. Two pods didn't germinate (back 2 middle), but I can't remember what they were because I didn't label. As I mentioned above, I put this garden together "late at night" (for me) so it was all I could do to plant in the first place, lol. I did scribble down on the post-it note what I planted, but I don't know what was what. Will figure out later.
(Btw the big parsley in front was planted in another garden some time ago, I have no recollection when. All the others are the same age).

Love parsley. Love cilantro.
If that 24-site Aerogarden Farm I preordered actually shows up this November, I'm thinking seriously of doing its first run with Cilantro and Parsley. Wouldn't that be fabulous?

Wouldn't that be fabulous? All parsley and cilantro definitely would be fabulous! But what is this 24-site AG of which you speak?? |

Well, when you compare it to the price of a pair of Bountys...
Nah. Still overpriced. At least they look like they can stack.

Still, I can totally see being sucked in. Because AG and 24?? Yeah I like it.
I also think I missed it because I have been aggressively deleting their emails without reading for months. Too dangerous!

They have more pods, but the heights are the same.

Well that's a little silly as a new offering - I do think they need to come up with a taller machine somehow. For those of us who simply can't come up with mods for whatever reason.

Yes, that's really the down-side to me. They really need to give us some taller than 2' options, and frankly, unless you're just doing herbs, I doubt that you'd ever make use of all 24 sites. In fact, I'm thinking more on the order of 4-6 active sites. And, as I've said before, I'd much rather the sites accept standard 2 or 3" net pots, but now I'm just whining.

Goodness, I haven’t taken a pic of this in a long time. These herbs got pretty big until I used a bunch of the cilantro in my curry. Then I used some of the lemon basil (right front) and parsley (right rear) with leftover store bought Genovese and mint to make a spread for crackers or what not. It was wonderful- I had some last night.  |
