Curbing My Enthusiasm

Category: Hydroculture | Posted: Fri May 08, 2015 12:31 am

I had originally intended on doing a full unboxing video once I got the Aerogarden Ultra LED. Ah, the best laid plans of mice...

I tore through that wrapping and cardboard like a maniac before assembling the machine at breakneck speed. It's my weakness. I just can't resist a good puzzle. Oh well. I'll probably make that unboxing video once I get a second one.

The Aerogarden was an easy project to assemble. The instructions were clear and setup was a breeze. I highly recommend this model for anyone interested in the technology.

As an aside, it also puts out enough light to grow other plants around the Aerogarden. I'm not going to do it with this one as I'd like for it to be a completely sterile environment with not even the remotest chance for contamination from my soil plant babies. Yet, the option is there.

This is my new toy with my little potentials currently swimming around in 1.2 Gallons of water. Well, suspended above the water to be precise. Hopefully, knock on wood, there will be no infestations of bugs or anything.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have an Aerogarden to stare at. :D

Congrats, this is a very interesting piece of kit? What is its electricity consumption like? Seems like the display allows you to configure it well.

Thanks! I'm very happy with it so far, except, I just saw it selling for less on Amazon than what I paid for it. Ah well...

The instruction manual says the Electrical Rating is 120V~60Hz, 0.32A for the model I have, which is the Ultra LED.
