The End of the First Aerogarden Grow Log (February 10)

Sunday, February 10, 2008

The Aerogarden has been a neat toy. Unfortunately, after about 40-50 juicy cherry tomatoes, they have stopped producing. Sadly, I must kill them for the sake of the power bill. Click “more” for the end of the Aerogarden project.
