Aerogarden Bounty Elite Vs. Amazon's Cheapest Comparable Knockoff [UPDATE]

[@donnaschroeder8581]

Great update have you decided which unit is best. I always refer to my AG's to know when to feed so I will always default to Aerogarden and buy them when 1/2 price. Usually at least once or twice a year you can find these deals. Thx for the drive along and all the info

[@retrotechandelectronics]

Aerogarden on sale is always a good choice. I’m waiting for something like the gardyn to come down in price to make a purchase

[@rachelklan]

"Wrap my hands around that" lololol But for real, fabulous videos. Thank you for being entertaining and informative.

[@retrotechandelectronics]

Glad you enjoyed it!

You’ll have to pollinate the eggplants to get fruit. I use Be The Bee pollinator from Aerogarden. You can use a toothbrush or paint brush to pollinate it as an alternative.

[@retrotechandelectronics]

We have a pollinator brush, I will ask to see it it was polinated between the different plants

[@PossessedbyPhoenix]

Usually for manual pollination, how long do you have to do it for? Also is blowing with a fan necessary?

[@ChristyN2530]

​@PossessedbyPhoenix A fan gives resistance to the stems etc, making them stronger.

I wanted to know what happens if you move them. Thank you!!

[@retrotechandelectronics]

You’re welcome.

awesome video man! very educational… i was about to get an aero garden but i think you may have just changed my mind

[@retrotechandelectronics]

Consider both have their positives and negatives.

[@inspiredproduce]

This would be a lot better with some over time pictures. The review of the systems is good though! Thanks for sharing!

[@retrotechandelectronics]

Thanks for watching!

[@aperson1181]

Can you come up with a similar device DIY the is much cheaper?

[@michelleh2672]

Love your videos. I could tell from your 'r" that you are from the Massachusetts area.

[@retrotechandelectronics]

Close!

[@marktaylorp]

How do the tomatoes taste??

[@retrotechandelectronics]

Everyone else seems to like them. I think tomatoes are disgusting..

[@Sheenasalesthriftytreasures]

Great video

[@retrotechandelectronics]

Thank you!

[@youaake]

Thanks for the vid :) 127 days for that yeld? Seems slow to me? Or is this normal?

[@retrotechandelectronics]

All of these plants were experimental for us so we have no gauge for normal yet. The kale is regularly cut so that is doing fine

[@youaake]

@@retrotechandelectronics ok :) i have no clue, but it seemed very slow. 27 days would be normal i think?

[@buckwheat7424]

the car ride, pretty lame.

[@TheGeneral_LUFC]

How good are these for growing weed.

[@retrotechandelectronics]

Im gonna imagine pretty bad given the maximum height of the adjustable lamp.

[@buckwheat7424]

unless you have 2 aerogardens, and a couple more lighting hoods only, then u stagger the second one to take off from the first one, for 4 or 6ft plants, top them early, and use shorter varieties i'm sure you could disconnect the hoods and add some wire to get larger plants or just add lights keep in mind the root balls in water can get large with only 2 plants. the thing about aerogarden is compact on your kitchen counter to grow cherry tomato plants etc. @@retrotechandelectronics
