I accidentally got them caught up in the cloth I was using to dust around the pods, didn't notice in time and into the trash. I think I should stop dusting unitl they are all fully grown. lol koko -- There is no love more sincere than the love of food George Bernard Shaw www.kokoscorner.typepad.com updated 02/01 |

I really like my aero garden. Got it for Christmas 2007. Last spring my
herbs were about done and the instructions said to throw every thing away and replant. Well, my 2 basils pleaded not to be euthanized and I pulled them out roots and all and I planted them outside. They took off and were twice the size they had ever been. I harvested basil all through the summer from those two plants that had stopped growing indoors.

How did you kill chives??? I have a patch that's been going for 20 years out front. They thrive on neglect. They are garlic chives. It's too late for me to save seeds for this winter but if you'd like some next fall, e-mail me and I'll store a sticky on my desktop to remind me to send you some. -- Peace!

I have no idea. I plant them in starting soil, transplant into larger pots and plant outside. In 2006 I bought a package of Granex onion seeds. I have used over 260 so far and still have about 100 left. I paid $.97 for the package at Walmart. The packages at Lowe's are $1.25 this year. I looked at the Aerogarden and as soon as I saw that you had to buy the seeds and pots from them I decided no thank you. If you are satisfied with the varieties they offer and the prices, have at it. On the other hand I have about a 1/2 acre garden and a 12' x 8' greenhouse. -- Susan N. "Moral indignation is in most cases two percent moral, 48 percent indignation, and 50 percent envy."

I'm going to order the gardening kit that allows you to use your own seeds with their pods and planting material. koko -- There is no love more sincere than the love of food George Bernard Shaw www.kokoscorner.typepad.com updated 02/01 |
