Here’s a quick update video of my Aerogarden Ultra LED Tomato Garden 46 days into the growth cycle.
Last month I wrote about my first attempt to grow a hydroponic vegetable garden last year and how it didn’t really work out.
Growing these tomatoes is my second attempt.
I’m actually getting pretty excited now that I actually see my tomatoes starting to flower.
When I grew my tomato plants in my larger hydroponic setup last year they grew really tall but never flowered, so it’s exciting to see these ones actually starting to flower.

wow thats really amazing Paul, whats the basic setup costs and how long did it take you to get to that kind of growth or have you gone through any fruits yet? Did you also need to add any kind of natural fertilizer or was it purely water?
Keep us posted

I have 2 setups. My Aerogarden setup for the LED version it was around $150-$250 or so for everything. They give you everything you need to get started including seed kids and nutrients.
I have a second setup I was trying out which is an actual growing tent where I could grow a LOT of veggies, which was around $2k and I put that together myself. I tried growing veggies with it yesterday but I had an equipment malfunction that destroyed my plants. Basically the lights went off for 1 week and I didn’t know – LOL, so the plants died due to a lack of light. I am probably going to restart that garden again soon, but I started off by growing my Aerogarden first.

The reason I signed up on your site was to get updates on your Aerogarden. I`m not interested
in working on line, so just keep me updated on your gardening please Paul.
Later, Ben

Hi Ben, unfortunately I don’t have a way to only email people those posts that they are interested in. I do have a Facebook page I created that is solely focused on growing food indoors hydroponically. You can find it here: https://www.facebook.com/growyourownfoodindoors
As for my emails, you can either just ignore those emails that do not interest you, or unsubscribe from my email list by clicking on the link at the bottom of every email I send out, and maybe just tune into the updates on the Facebook page.
Thanks for popping by!
