I'm not sure how patient I need to be. I let it sit for 7 minutes and still only one model.

A little while before Thanksgiving I picked up a 7 pod Aerogarden at a thrift store. At the BB&B they only had one 7 pod set, Gourmet Herbs (or something). It has some herbs that we don't use but I bought it anyway.
It started sprouting almost immediately and about 2 weeks later I was able to start harvesting the herbs. It is very nice to be able to use fresh herbs in my cooking although I think next time I'll get the Mexican Herb set.

If i didnt have cats, id probably keep it in my kitchen with a constant supply of fresh herbs. But because of the cats, it has to be tucked away upstairs in the office , closed door. Good thing im a vegetarian, or id consider cooking the cats up with some of the fresh herbs, that would solve my problem!!!

I originally had my AeroGarden in a nice spot in a side room and immediately realized I was ignoring it and that it needed almost daily attention, like any garden. It has since been moved into the kitchen where I am around it constantly.
If I had a cat I think I would try growing Cat Nip elsewhere in the hopes they liked that better, or perhaps grow hot peppers in the AeroGarden for my salsa.

I have six of the large size Aero Gardens and love them for Lettuce and Herbs. I did cherry tomatoes and Jalapeno's in one this year. The tomatoes were watery with no flavor and very thick skins. The Jalapeños had the heat of a Habinero and were so bad that after cutting one in the kitchen it had peoples eyes burning the bedrooms at the other side of the house. I won't be doing either in the Aero Garden again. But lettuce and herbs are great.
They are organic. The fertilizer liquid that comes with them is organic and so are the seeds used.
I had a shelf put up on my main wall in the living room this year to put them on. They not only look nice in the living room they provide lots of light. Why pay for lights when you have to have them lighted to grow I figured make them do double duty.
