I temporarily took out the 4 spacers on my Aerogarden (between the Ruby Heirloom Tomatoes) and used my Master Gardener Kit to start germinating some seeds, which I will remove and plant in dirt once the tomatoes (hopefully) start growing and taking over. I added some eggplant, romaine lettuce, onion, and cucumber. Here is a pic of the Aerogarden in the corner of the dining room:

I also have an avocado pit in water and a ziplock with 3 lemon seeds in paper towel (just for some fun plants to grow, not really expecting anything from them).

And a pic of the “mini greenhouse” sitting on the cat’s condo in the dining room window:

And finally, a pic of my mini-orange (calamondin) tree, with lots of blooms and buds:

And that’s all for now :)

UPDATE: OMG, my salad mix seeds in the mini greenhouse are already sprouting!!!

UPDATE 2: Just realized that my lights are too high on the Aerogarden, didn’t realize I could lower them more duh! I also moved my mini greenhouse into the bedroom under my full-spectrum desk lamp because the lettuce is growing too quickly and getting leggy. I also planted a smaller mini-greenhouse with onions, carrots, basil, peppers, and martian giant tomatoes. I hope they grow!

  2. Hydroponic gardening really is one of the most enjoyable hobbies someone can take up. It’s like magic watching your sprouts grow into fully mature plants so quickly. Newbies and veterans can definitely take away some good information from this.
