The AeroGarden™, the world's first kitchen garden appliance that allows anyone- even “brown thumbs” with no gardening experience-to simply, conveniently and affordably grow healthy and delicious Farmer's Market Fresh™ herbs, lettuce, tomatoes and more, all year-round, right on their kitchen counter top, without dirt, bugs, weeding or mess. The AeroGarden™ uses NASA-proven, high-yield aeroponic technology and built-in grow lights to create a self-watering, self-feeding, fully automated indoor garden that grows plants faster and healthier than plants grown in soil. The AeroGarden uses patent-pending “rainforest-in-a-box” technology, where plant roots are grown directly into the air in a 100% humid, oxygen-rich environment with a consistent, nourishing rainfall of organic-based nutrients-- with no dirt, pesticides or soil contaminants. This oxygen-rich “aeroponic” delivery results in stunning growth rates up to five times faster than plants grown in soil. The AeroGarden's simple, “plug and grow” system guarantees 100% germination and gardening success. The AeroGarden™ is easy to set up in under 10 minutes, often germinates seeds in less than 24 hours, and can go from “seed to salad” in as little as two and a half weeks. The rapid re-growth generates continual, ongoing daily harvests for months. Note: This listing is for one Aerogarden unit including one pack of "Gourmet Herbs" seeds. Color: Black (the white unit is also available for purchase: see item# 706900)
