AeroGrow AeroGarden with Gourmet Herb Seed Kit

Childrens Toy Shop > Outdoor Living > Plants and Planting
from: Aerogrow


The AeroGrow AeroGarden is a wonderful, unique product for someone who wants to have fresh herbs or gourmet tomatoes all year round. I purchased this product as a birthday gift and would give the product 5 stars if ALL the plants had started to grow. Two out of the three plants are growing beautifully. The company that sent the garden 6 weeks ago, has still NOT replaced the one plant that didn't sprout. The design of the garden is great and we are still pleased.

AeroGarden Seed Kit

Childrens Toy Shop > Outdoor Living > Plants and Planting
from: Aerogrow


I am working on my second Cherry Tomato seed kit. After about three months, the first crop provided about eight Cherry tomatoes. Hardly a bumper crop. During the growth I had to clean out the pump which got clogged with roots (more on that latter). So I figured, ok, I had to disturb the root system when I had to clean out the pump, so perhaps that was the problem.

I started a second crop of Cherry Tomatoes about three months ago. So far, I have had one marble sized yellow tomato. I also have an additional two, marble sized, yellow tomatoes ripening. I have not even seen any flowers on the two red tomato plants. The red tomato plants grow, but no tomato production.

I am running out of plant nutrients. I checked AeroGrows ... Read More:

Felknor Ventures 82506 Topsy Turvy Upside-Down Tomato Planter

Childrens Toy Shop > Outdoor Living > Plants and Planting
from: Felknor Ventures


Plants have to be watered ridiculously often. Twice a day during the summer in CO. So you may never leave for even a couple of days. Tomatoes were not bountiful, and were tough due to exposure. Worst of all, though was that the planter only made it through one season. The weight of the dirt and one season of exposure to sun and water made the planter spontaneously rip right in half under it's own weight! The manufacturer will not even comment to negative emails. Waste of water, time, and money.

Self-Watering Probes - Vacation Plant Waterers - 5 Pack

These probes work great. However, don't expect great results in larger size pots. I think one probe covers a 10 inch pot pretty well.

Luster Leaf Rapitest Soil Test Kit #1601

Childrens Toy Shop > Outdoor Living > Plants and Planting
from: Luster Leaf


The instructions are somewhat involved for this tester. However, it is far cheaper than sending 10 samples to a lab for processing. You do need to allow up to 24 hours for your samples to settle after mixing with water; "Rapid" is in comparison to sending the samples to a lab. The actual tests of the water samples is completed in 10 minutes. My only, rather minor, complaint is that the blue dye (Phosphorus test) tended to adhere to the plastic test capsule, requiring a bit of cleaning with toweling between each test.

Within a week of purchasing the tree, it died. I had put it oustside in a shady area where it could get partial sun, and I watered it every other day. However within a week, all the leaves were brown and fell off.

Aqua Globes Watering Bulbs 2-pk.

Childrens Toy Shop > Outdoor Living > Plants and Planting
from: Idea Village


i tried these and they didn't work. i followed the directions-several times- to no avail. the water just pours out all at once even after i had just soaked the plant. so tried just sticking the globe into the dirt. i figured the end would get plugged with dirt but maybe the water would pass ever so slowly through the plug. it didn't. some of my friends have these and theirs don't work either.

AeroGarden Salad Chef Pack

Childrens Toy Shop > Outdoor Living > Plants and Planting
from: Aerogrow


The AeroGarden had been so fun to use, and the Salad Chef Pack is especially gratifying in that I can just pluck a few leaves and put it on a sandwich or make a small salad. The grandkids think this is just the best idea ever. I purchased the AeroGarden for my father who has been a gardener for years. He still loves the outdoor activity of his garden (at 92) but is having a good time with this as well. He shows his great granddaughters how it works, shows them when the plants start growing, has them help harvest, and makes tasty treats for them. Now, how much more fun could you want?
