God damn. That unit looks like something you find in the futuristic labs of Deus Ex and System Shock 2.
So that’s where all the Ambrosia’s going
Cool, I have one of those too. You should post updates when the Seedling actually start growing.
What did you plant?
The box had a starter pack of herbs. So I’ve got dill, thyme, parsley, mint and two types of basil (very hyped to make Thai basil curry)
I had one like this for years. When you dispose of the old plugs, try and keep the plastic parts. You can cut them some to get the roots out, but at least the top half. You can buy rock wool and other substrates to grow your own seeds, and the plastic part can be handy to keep the new substrate in place.
Have fun! These are really quite easy to use and fun.
Fyi “basil” is not the same thing as “thai basil”
It has Thai basil and “genovese” basil
Love Thai basil. Makes everything kind of taste like crawfish boil
Both of them grow extremely fast in these aero gardens
I’m still trying to figure out how to bonsai it so that it doesn’t overtake the entire thing and end up as a woody mess with a couple leaves pressed right up against the LEDs. I end up restarting my basil every year because so far I have been unsuccessful. I use a lot of basil and make a lot of pesto, but it’s never enough.

Cute! What a cool looking object! I hope you grow some lovely plants!
Edit: lol who downvoted me for this? Why?
I wonder what kind of plant it gone be.
Is it aeroponics or hydroponics?
Everything refers to it as hydroponics, not sure what the difference would be. Novice gardener with a shriveled brown thumb.
It looks like Miracle Grow bought them out and shut them down, which is shit.
Hydroponics is generally where roots sit in water
Aeroponics is generally where roots sit in air/environment with precipitating humidity
I’ve had pretty good luck at transplanting after the herbs get big. Also a dehydrator is nice.
That’s a really good deal, especially if it came with a seed pack.
