Using Aerogarden to start your seeds

To keep fresh herbs in my house year round I use 2 aerogardens.


Free Shipping on all AeroGardens




I have them growing on a rotating schedule so when one is ready for replanting the other is becoming ready to harvest. This time of year I switch them over to starter trays and give my garden a head start. Each tray has 62 plugs meaning I get 124 plants from the trays. I would suggest placing 2-4 seeds (the smaller the more you should use) per plug and then trim back to 1 plant/plug once that sprout.

Spring is coming

Spring time coming and that means it is time to get ready for your garden. This year I will dedication to biweekly updates of my garden. Over these past few winter months I have been going a great deal of research on how to get the most out of my garden plots.

First topic...Vertical Gardening...


The concept here is to build up instead of sprawl your garden.

I will be running some experiments on how to grower vertically and posting the results here.
