These are finally up. I will probably move one to another machine when they get a little bigger.

I just thinned them down to one per pod. They all have their first true leaves.

I ordered some Veranda Red seed, because you said it was your favorite, so I'll be watching your garden grow. If the seed arrives in time, I'll add some to the tomato garden that I just planted. 🙂

These are growing fast. Soon I will move one to another machine.

Beautiful! It is funny how something so small and delicate can bring such joy!

They are growing like weeds and starting to put on flowers.

I am keeping the house cooler this year and it appears to be too cool for tomatoes to thrive. There are lots of flowers, but they are not setting much fruit.
If they fail to produce more, I will replace them with romaine.

You may have answered the question of why my Red Verandas aren't thriving. They're growing, but very slowly. The oldest RV is about to produce its first set of flowers, but it's far behind yours. Probably the house has been too cold--or else the plants react the same way that I do to daytime temperatures that go up and down dramatically in the Spring and Fall.

If you have a closet, or book case, or something with at least three sides that you can put the AG on/in - that seems to trap the heat from the light enough for tomato plants to fruit even with our cooler house temperatures.

I agree with ERR0R1755 . The tomatoes in a Harvest in the corner with several other machines, surrounded by a room divider, are doing better. I also have my peppers that like hot weather there.

This shows the difference temperatures make in my house.
The first photo is in a semi enclosed corner with other Aerogardens where it stays warmer. The second is in a cooler, open area.
