Okay...it is all your fault! I went ahead and ordered a Harvest Elite from Amazon Warehouse. I guess it was a return, so I got it for 100 bucks and change. Actually, there was "no charge" as I had a gift card from something I recently sent back. Anyway, it was a better price, so I went for it. What sold me is the ease of changing out to Microgreens. So, then I had to go to AeroGarden and order the Microgreens kit for it, since I don't have that size kit. And, of course, I had to order an AeroVoir to go with it too. Probably won't use it for the microgreens, but I just didn't want to pay for shipping! That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

Good for you! I try not to be too much of an enabler, but I'm very happy with the Harvest microgreens system.

I was shocked! I got an email from AG saying they have shipped my order! Same day turn-around is a first for me! They say Fed Ex will deliver it on Saturday, but I seriously doubt that, unless it is coming from someplace pretty close to me? My Amazon order says it is in process and expect delivery on Monday, 1/31. I doubt that one too, lately things frequently change, day-to-day.

I got an email this morning from Fed Ex claiming Sunday as the expected delivery date. I doubt that very much as Fed Ex doesn't come out here in the hills on Sunday.

I have two recent AG orders promised for Sunday, but I'll be happy if they get here by Monday, or at all.

Its exceeded my expectations. I tried the "ingarden" microgreens system and I had bad luck with that. I've tried with the coconut fiber pads and grow lights and had limited success. Finally I just ordered a Harvest and the microgreens kits and I've had the best microgreens consistently. I hope it works out for you!

Thanks chadtexas! They grew well for me in the Bounty Microgreens kit, but changing out the bowl is a bit of an ordeal and then the Bounty is busy with that. I think I'll be happier using a Harvest for microgreens and the Bounty can supply flowers!

I'm complaining about AG's use of FedEx. If an order comes through the Emeryville office, all is well. But if it comes through the San Leandro office, it is (1) delayed a couple of days, (2) claimed to be delivered but not delivered, (3) delivered to a similar address 1/2 mile away, or (4) actually delivered on time. The 4th option is the least frequent occurrence.

Oh, dear, lynnee! We had a Fed Ex guy that was really, really bad for a while. In general, I ask folks to use UPS for us. But Chewey and AG insist on using Fed Ex. Here's hoping you get Option 4 this time!

Woo hoo! To my utter surprise, the Harvest MicroGreens kit arrived yesterday, via Fed Ex...on a Sunday!! The new (to me) Harvest Elite just got here via USPS. It is totally cute! Good thing I didn't know how cute they are before I filled my office with other models!

I've got the AG Spicy Mix and some TrueLeaf Alfalfa growing in it now. I'll be updating with more pictures later today...see this thread.
