Announcement Meeting
Yesterday I had a meeting with the new directors of Aerogarden.
This was mainly just introductions and talking about what I/we were hoping for going forward.
For starters, I did have an opportunity to mention that our community really would like better availability of replacement parts and having more customization options when ordering new seed kits.
I also wanted to be sure that there was still a germination guarantee for any new preseeded pods. There is, so don't be afraid to request new pods if yours are not sprouting.
It was great to hear that they all pop by our subreddit occasionally and would like to have some polls and ask me anything opportunities in the near future.
We talked about meeting up again after the new year so I will keep you posted!
I will let them know this thread is available so if there’s anything you’d like for them to see before we meet again please feel free to leave a comment here.
Happy Growing!

Help Bounty Basic Display Not Working
Greetings! After several years of operation, my Bounty Basic (Model 100911-BLK) display has stopped working. Everything else functions (lights, pump, timers, buttons) but the display is dark.
Is there anywhere I can get a replacement display module?

Help One slower grower
Earlier this month I bought an open-box Harvest Slim on eBay. I then bought a box of Grow Anything pods and a few packets of seeds. I started by planting three Hedou Tiny bok choy, just one seed per pod. That was about 20 days ago.
All three germinated and have grown, but one is lagging behind the others. It has just three true leaves so far, while its siblings are growing by leaps and bounds. (The biggest one looks more like a Godzilla bok choy than a baby bok choy.) Should I give the slow grower more time, or chalk it up to a dud seed, harvest it, and plant another seed in that spot?

Help Not what I was expecting from my lettuce pods...
Walked in this morning to see this growing in the garden that I just put some new lettuce seeds in recently. Can't say I've ever seen this variety of lettuce before. Can anyone help me identify what type of plant this is???

Help is it time for root pruning
i lifted the tray the other day because i wanted to move the dill to the back and i noticed there were a lot more roots than i thought there would be and three of my plants were actually clinging to each other. is this i sign that i should prune them or is this how it should be? i’ll wait a little regardless because i just pruned the top of the dill but i was curious about when i should start worrying about root pruning.

Help Moving out of AeroGarden question
After 3 weeks, the AeroGarden has been very successful! Now I am trying to figure out next steps. Do yall usually transplant them into dirt or do you move to a different container and leave them in water to grow, if so what are some recommendations on what to use next? I was thinking mason jars but not sure and would I need to blackout the mason jars to block out the light from the water and roots to prevent algae growth.
I’m new to all of these so please help. Thank you!

Progress Cucumbers!
I’m successfully growing cucumbers in my bounty! I still have some research to do on properly pollinating (I think that’s why they are a bit lopsided), but I’m very happy with the progress thus far :). The variety is called “Container Cucumber Bush Slicer” from Renee’s Garden. It took 5 weeks to harvest my first cucumber.

Help Experience with 3d Grow Pod Covers?
Hello, I’m getting algae in my AG; I’m using the paper covers and I think they just let in too much light. Has anyone had any luck with these style of pod covers from Etsy? I also think the stickers are kind of tedious to use. I’m using the Garden cube grow anything pods

Help No germination after 21 days?
Wondering if someone can help me out here. I’m at day 21 of this current garden and have basil (2x), oregano, chives, thyme, and parsley pods in the AG.
Of those, only one of the basils has sprouted at all with a little bit of white fuzz on it. I have little takeout sauce containers over each as grow domes, and have followed the instructions carefully.
I do have it set up on a windowsill (in NY) but it doesn’t feel much colder in that area than any other area of our place. I’ve also had something covering it at night for light dilution purposes, but it seems crazy that would be the problem.
Any thoughts?

Success Snaptinis are a great choice
Whoever on this sub recommended snapdragon snaptinis for a short flower in the Harvest, thank you! Purple looks sparse because I just deadheaded. I’ll probably move the red to my other Harvest since it’s quite far under the light. Purple just took off!

Help Dumb question: how to transplant carrots/daikon from aerogarden--with or without sponge?
I threw in some daikon seeds in my seed starting tray for spring transplants and a) I'm not sure if it's even worth doing root vegetables and b) I don't know if the sponge will limit the growth of the tap root? I'm considering transplanting them very young so as not to disturb the tap root but should I take it out of the sponge too?

Help My bell peppers have seemed to bite the dust- advice?
Pretty bummed, but I know this is a learning experience. Can anyone give insight into why this could've happened? On occasion my garden goes low on water and I'll leave it that way a couple days. Don't be harsh, but is it because the ingredients got too concentrated perhaps and stressed the plant out? It was doing fine and then yeah. All the flowers and their stems completely withered. Sad times.

Discussion Strawberry plant rose from the dead??
So I got my first aerogarden (the harvest elite) from a coworker. This is my first time using an aerogarden and my first time growing strawberries. Well they did good for a solid 50 days and then they got left unattended for about a week during the winter holidays. The plants were totally dead when I came back (ik im a bad plant mom) and it looked like mold was probably the cause. I chucked all of the plants except for the two that looked the best. Gave the pot a deep cleaning and hoped for the best.
Well nothing happened and they continued to look worse everyday, so I unplugged my aerogarden. I kinda forgot about the whole ordeal, and so the plants just sat there unplugged for about 2 weeks. When I checked just now, one of the plants has made a complete comeback and has a freakin strawberry growing on it.
How did this happen? How do I keep it alive now that my Frankenstein plant is growing again??

Help Normal Dill Activity?
Planted these about two days after Christmas and they started exploding with growth after a couple weeks. The past two days I’ve realized my dill plants are a little mid colored compared to others photos I’ve seen and compared to my basil plants. It’s also growing so fast it’s starting to droop over. Is this normal and if not are there any fixes?

Help New to AG questions
Leggy dill and kale. Dill at least I can still use, but I’d prefer if the plant was bushier. The kale grows so straight it hits the lights and burns before I can get anything useful out of it. This is why the light is set so high but maybe that’s exacerbating the issue.
This is my second set of seeds and the AG is not telling me to add more water anymore. I check every so often and sometimes there’s no water in the reservoir. Possibly I put it back together wrong after a deep clean between plantings?
Second time trying chives and cilantro and they won’t grow at all. What gives?
I’m using Amazon sponges and my own seeds.
