New Model? - AeroGarden Farm Tall

[nick]

Hi, folks. New member here!

It seems that AeroGrow has listed two new models of the Farm on Amazon, called the "Farm Tall". They appear to be about a third taller than the Farm Plus. Current shipping time is listed as 1-2 months, so I suspect we may be seeing these in time for the holidays.

Black (model no. 900970-1100): www.amazon.com/AeroGarden-900970-1100-Farm-Garden-Black/dp/B07DQ76R28/

White (model no. 900971-1100): www.amazon.com/AeroGarden-900971-1100-Hydroponic-Garden-White/dp/B07DQ9P9XX

I just ordered my Farm Plus yesterday, but if these are released this fall there will definitely be at least one in my future. Because tomatoes.

You are going to really enjoy some lovely vegetables growing.

$800 is a bit too pricey for me,though. I am limited to the 'Tall" single unit machines like the Bounty and Ultra.

Please keep us updated on your projects..especially in photos..and tell us how you like the new model!.

Hi nick, where did you purchase yours through, AG?  For Amazon the Farm Plus is new the regular Farm has been on there.  AG might want to service their customers before Amazons so maybe that is the month or two wait?  Just speculating.

Congrats on the purchse!

Preach girl! Too pricey for the average biped! Yikes! I could easily make a list I'd use the $$ for, before I'd spend $800 on one. I already think the regular Farm machine is insanity.

However, if I ditch my husband and marry a millionaire that wants to lavish me with $$, (with a massive house or two), I might reconsider. I'm way too thrifty.

Welcome Nick!

I picked up my Farm Plus via the official AeroGarden store because of the current sale price.

I just happened to notice the new Farm Tall models on Amazon while I was browsing and thought I'd share. I hadn't seen them listed anywhere else yet.

I couldn’t find where they said how tall the hood goes in the “Tall” Farm.

The regular Farm, the hood only raised 12".  The Farm Plus it raises 24".  Both from the deck.  Or is this a whole different unit?

Ok Here is what I found.  The tall IS tall.  Here are some measurements.

The Farm Plus:  36 x 12 x 34 inches 

The Farm Tall:   12 x 36 x 45.5 inches

Totals 11.5" Taller.   2.5lb heavier.   And the model number is different.

So one has to wonder....    Is there one coming out.

Taller is good.

[Shawn]

But too much money.  It is cheaper to buy some grow lights and point to the sides of the garden.  LOL

Yep. This is why I posted. I suspect the Farm Tall will hit sometime in the fall and will be geared at tomato lovers. 

It does look expensive based on the price listed at Amazon but almost all of the AeroGarden models have inflated prices on Amazon. I bet we'll see it cheaper on the official site, especially with the sales they seem to do so regularly.

Holiday sales especially.
