Does anyone use the aerogarden to start their seeds? I received a seed starting tray for one and wondered if their were any tips to using it. Do you like it, how soon before planting do you start your seeds?
Thanks, Deb

I tried it one year without much success. The seeds grew fine - when it was time to harden some of them off the neighbors in the starter tray weren't ready. ;<
I think with a bit of careful planning it would work fine. I didn't realize how much longer it would take for peppers than tomatoes. I had no idea how large some of the little leaves would get. I planted all the seeds on the same day. See where my problems came from? ;>
I got so frustrated I gave all my leftover seeds to a friend and resorted to buying at a local nursery. ;<

Deb, Thanks for the advice. I'll be sure to watch what I plant together. Deb
