How Do the AeroGarden Indoor Herb Gardens Work?

You know that the AeroGarden™ produces magnificent vegetables, herbs, flowers and fruit but what you might not necessarily understand is how it works. It is essentially less complicated than you think. Within each AeroGarden™ unit is a small microprocessor programmed to provide an optimal environment for your plants. How does it understand what environment to provide? Simply because you turn the dial on the front of the AeroGarden™ to indicate to it what you’re growing. Instantly the humidity, nutrients, and compact fluorescent light requirements are fine-tuned to satisfy the requirements of your plants. Even more interesting than the internal microcomputer is the science that goes inside each and every seed and nutrient tablet. AeroGrow scientists have taken years of NASA aeroponic research for large scale operations and patented a small scale, organic approach for the mass market. The seeds are designed for fast growth and a large yield. Each nutrient pellet is derived from minerals salts such as the same type of mineral salts you might find in typical multi-vitamins; and is designed to neutralize your tap water for optimal growing conditions.
