AeroGarden Bounty Basic - Indoor Garden with LED Grow Light, Black

I have several Harvests & I have wanted a Bounty for a long time. I finally got it. I'm so excited. It is up & running & just waiting for me to decide what to grow in it first. It set up quickly & I really like the new info screen. It has the time, the water level, what garden choice, how many days planted & how many until feed time. No more having to scroll through the options to remember what my settings were if the power goes out. The base has a great gardening tips button, which I haven't even checked it all out yet. The 24" head/light arm can be removed if & when I would need to. It will be great to see all of the basic info without having to lift the deck to check water. The screen is very clear & the entire base is sleek & looks very rich. Can't wait to put some new pods in. It doesn't take up much more room than my Harvest so it is nicely tucked in among some of my small plants where they will be able to benefit from the LED lighting. I've been very pleased with my previous AG's & I'm sure this will be just as good. They just keeping getting better. Thank You AeroGarden for creating such great units that are affordable & so well thought out, so we can garden year round. Updates to follow as crops grow & produce. 11-25-19 I have had some time to adjust to the new 2019 Bounty & I like it so much I just bought another. They are whisper quiet, the info screen gives me all of the pertinent info needed for water level, days planted, when to feed as well as little grow tips & time. The larger tank & deck are great & Im sure my Incredible Edibles are going to love the room to grow. I also get some extra fun because it gives me room to create little scenes to go along with the plant life. I have created a seascape on both AG's. since I have numerous other plants sitting around the units sharing the light this becomes a full Aquatic picture. A couple of sunken ships, some sea life, a diver & it becomes a live scene because the plants are all real & edible so it will constantly change. It is such a pleasure to grow some of my own food & create some art at the same time. If you have ever been undecided about getting a Bounty then get one, you will not be disappointed. It is so versatile. I can small crops or now with the taller light ability I will be able to put in some cucumbers, snap peas, larger peppers & even a few bushes that will go into my yard in the spring to produce berries for the birds. Great unit AGpic #1 original Bounty #2 Bounty 1 with Edibles -all the plant life here is edible #3 the 2nd Bounty- the Diver had Lavender & Mint.2020 12-20-20 Its been over a yr now & I still love my Bounty's. I have 4 now & have grown tomatoes, peppers, lettuce, cukes, edible flowers, herbs/spices, flowers & several other veggies. Many went out into my small outside garden & then I started more. I have preserved herbs/spices & many of the peppers. I have a good collection of seeds from all that I have grown & have used them for new crops as the current ones are rotated to outside or the freezer. I havent bought any of these items in a store for a yr now & its fantastic. Also with the issues with covid I am not concerned of where my produce & some of my veggies come from because they are grown in my kitchen. I have 4 Bountys now, 4 Harvests, 2 360-s & an AG3. It handles all that I need plus extras for my neighbor friend. If you can only get 1 or 2 gardens get at least the Bounty Basic. It will handle almost anything you put in it. Its as easy as it gets to set up & take care of & you will always have something to eat or pretty to look at right at your fingers.

I have the smaller version of this and both of these works great for growing herbs, lettuce and tomatoes. Would highly recommend it if you want to grow your own veggies/herbs.

I've been watching hydroponic technology advance with baited breath. I remember when these where 500$ and super sketchy. I was still skeptical buying this garden because of the price.Now its got its own knock off for 60$ Is this worth 179? If you have the extra cash for the major structural differences, user friendly pod kits, and directions hail yes. This garden means the end to food deserts across the country. Whether you can afford the nice one like this or the off brand. Every home should have a hydroponic garden in the next 5 years.Its user friendly- You follow the directions, pop the pods in, follow the prompts.Its small- As you can see, it fits on the end of my dining table. Takes up a cubic foot of space. Why buy only one when you obviously have space for two??Its good for your mental health.Its good feng shui? Kinda random but yeah, running water and bringing nature indoors. Its a palpable difference in your home.You can grow anything you want in it, just don't overcrowd it though, as you can see in mine and the other reviews the most successful gardens you only use a few pods at a time, that just gives value to the pod kits. one kit will last 2 "seasons" I will say to pay attention to your pods. My pepper pods didn't come with seeds. However thats not a drawback, seed packets cost a dollar at the store. Buy yourself a couple of seed vaults for 30 bucks... and some anything kits, you wont need to shop for vegetables for years. Its really that good.Welcome to the hydroponic agricultural revolution in the year 2024. Lets get these put on snap and wic.

I am loving this hydroponics system. I bought 3 of these, but only used one of the systems for the included lettuces. I bought the Grow Everything kits, so I can use my own seeds and grow what I want in the other two. So I planted lettuce in the one - out of 1 box of lettuces, 3 have not grown, or had mold. I took them out of that one hydroponic and put them in another where I had space to see if it would grow. One did eventually push through what looked like mold, apparently it was not mold. The other 2 - one has that mold looking stuff, and the other one has not sprouted. I contacted the company, because it says they will honor it if there is a problem. They make you jump through hoops to get replacement, so to me, it wasn’t worth it. Going forward I will use my own seeds. The system itself is great. The other 2 hydroponics - I have herbs in one and tomatoes and jalapenos in the other.The results - #1 lettuce, all are full and thriving, but one is very tiny still because it was a replacement, so it is behind.The second one - the herbs, everything up except one cilantro (i planted 2, one germinated, the other didn’t. And chives, they take a long time. So it includes thyme, cilantro, basil, parsley, and dill. Still waiting on the second cilantro and the rosemary. The third, the tomatoes are thriving, i have had to raise the light up a bit. The jalapenos have not yet germinated. I also planted 2 basil in that one, and they are doing great. The pictures are at 3 weeks old.

The garden is great, but the heirloom lettuce seed pods never sprouted, its been three weeks and they were supposed to sprout in 3-8 days. One of them is just growing fuzzy mildew. I bought some generic brand pods and they are doing great in the aerogarden. Just what I needed for my kitchen.The garden itself is easy to use and doesn't take up a lot of space. aperfect for small plants like herbs.

I had a couple of issues getting the lamp to work but overall, the product is well constructed and easy to use. Growing some herbs from the included seeds. Lest hope it all goes well.
