Frequently Asked Questions
How do AeroGardens work?
AeroGardens are designed to help you grow your own herbs, vegetables, salad greens or flowers at home. Our Seed Pod Kits are compatible with every model of AeroGarden. Planting with Seed Pods is fun and easy! Just insert the pre-seeded pods in your garden, add water, and the patented, specially formulated Liquid Nutrients. Most plants germinate within 7-14 days, are ready for harvesting in 4-6 weeks, and will keep producing continuous harvests for up to 6 months and longer. Indoor gardening can’t get any tastier or simpler!
How do I prune Lettuce/Salads?
Lettuce is one of the fastest-growing indoor crops and it's a staple. Who doesn't love to be healthy with delicious home-grown lettuce, or add a fresh leaf of romaine on their sandwich, or a salad of tasty arugula? And with AeroGarden, you can enjoy delicious Spring greens all throughout fall and winter!
How long will it take my plants to germinate?
Different types of plants take different amounts of time to germinate and grow. In general, we’ve found these germination timeframes to be consistent:
- Flowers take about 7-12 days
- Salads: 5-8 days
- Herbs: 5-15 days
- Fruiting vegetables (such as tomatoes and peppers): 7-14 days
If any of your seed pods don’t germinate after 21 days, contact us so we can send out a replacement for you under our 100% germination guarantee.
How do I clean my AeroGarden before starting a new garden?
After each planting, we recommend cleaning and sanitizing your AeroGarden for the best results.

No more costly bedding plants!
I bought this in November and used it to start greens and herbs for some indoor window boxes I had under grow lights-- it was way faster and and produced bigger, healthier plants than direct seeding. I'm really looking forward to starting my summer tomato plants in here, which I've never been able to do before. Replacing the commercial tomato plants with homegrown ones gives me many more options for varieties, and the kit will pay for itself in one season! This will also allow me to grow some long-season fall crops that I couldn't before-- leeks and brussels sprouts, maybe cabbage or kale too. So many possibilities!

AeroGarden seed starter for Harvest model
I ordered this starter for my Harvest Garden but it does not fit my older model. I did not see anything in the description addressing this issue, I have called customer service but they are only taking emails at this time with the virus pandemic, so I have emailed ( twice) now without any response. Growing season approaching, would like to be able to get a replacement if available for my older model so I could get plants in my outside garden! Please AeroGarden address thi issuer! I do love my Harvest model just not practical for starting only 6 plants for starting my outdoors garden. Thanks

Poorly Labelled Product
I bought this product in store because it said it was compatible with the Harvest and Harvest Elite. Little did I know that the company made a new Harvest model but didn't give it a different name than the old model. They also failed to mention on this product that its only good for the new version. I only realized this once I went to set this in the bowl and noticed the bowl is much larger. I think it will still work even though there will be a big gap between this and the bowl so I'll be losing water quicker which isn't a big deal but still pretty annoying that the product wasn't properly labelled to begin with. Too bad the company doesn't even sell a version for the older Harvest models.

Excellent Seed Starting System!
The Harvest model seed starting system worked well for me, though I wish it came with a guide on what veggies and fruits grow best in such a wet environment. I wasted a handful of good seeds as I learned what did and did not work. I had such a beautiful, bountiful crop this year that I was able to transfer into my garden with no issue. I just wish that the roots wouldn't get tangled up in the filter so quickly (2 weeks after planting the seeds). Overall, I look forward to getting my hands on another one of these once I have a bigger garden. Highly recommend for those wanting to get an early start despite the unpredictable last frost schedule.

Fantastic Tomato and Pepper Plants!
I purchased this to start my own seedlings. I buy seedlings from a local greenhouse every year..I decided to try planting my own tomato plants and peppers.This was the best decision. The seedlings sprouted fast and I had no problem transplanting them in peat pots. They are now transplanted in my garden and I have 14 healthy tomato plants and 6 various pepper plants They are even better then the ones I usually purchase at my local greenhouse!. I love this product. Thanks

Great Little Garden
I highly recommend AeroGarden products. This little garden gem is our newest addition. It is perfect for starting seeds. We used it to start morning glories, petunias, black-eyed Susan and marigolds. We bought regular seeds from a store and every one of the pods sprouted! Every. Single. One. Then we simply planted them outside. Talk about savings! All of the AeroGarden models are easy to use and fun. We have 3 different models set up most of the year. Herbs, lettuces, seed starters, annual, perennials...so many options. Overall, our AeroGardens have more than paid for themselves in a short period of time.

Doesn’t fit properly but works well enough
The seed starter tray is basically a normal tray with the pods spaced closer together to fit more seedlings. I have a Harvest Elite and couldn’t get the tray to sit snugly or remove the fountain spout as directed so it’s not sitting down as far as the normal tray. On my first try, all but 2 seeds started within 9 days (which could be the seeds’ fault as they were 2 yrs old, but the sponges got moldy quickly) which is faster than my regular small grow light and tray.
I love the idea, I just wish it was designed like it was actually compatible.

Does NOT fit older Harvests
I night this seed starter tray last year & since it was too late to use it, I set the tray aside, assuming it would be great to use this year. Unfortunately, illness & injury prevented me from looking at the try more closely until now. I was wanting to get my 3rd Harvest up & running with this tray, only to find it doesn't fit. There's a gap off to the side & back, that will totally allow for algae growth & I'm not sure the pump will run properly with it.
I truly don't recall the website description saying the tray would NOT work on the Classic models. Besides, how would xo know if mine were considered "Classic" or not? I really wish AeroGarden would list compatible model #s or something, especially since they keep coming out with new versions.
Of course, there's nothing I can do about exchanging or returning at this point. I'm hoping to take another look at this tomorrow & rig up a workable solution as I really need to get my seeds started...
