Things are Growing




In September I drop a good chunk of change of this contraption called the AeroGrow Garden. Basically it is a hydroponic set up that is all automatic and self contained. You buy these little seed capsules and pop them into the tray, add water, fertilizer tablets, set a timer and away they go. A pump circulates the water to each of the seed packets. As the plants grow their roots are constantly being washed with the water and nutrients.
Here are my lettuce seeds after about 5 days.
And three weeks later... salad anyone?

Good thing I have 5 lbs of carrots and a case of Annie's Goddess dressing to go with it.
