    Well, I already have enough Aerogardens and a stash of spare parts to last me for the next decade, so to hell with Kamala.

    I harvested a dishpan full of bok choy and tatsoi, so we'll be having stir fry for dinner today. I also trimmed all the tomato plants (veranda reds and totem) and noticed blooms on some of them so it's time to set up the fan. I also have several baby Iznik cucumbers so I did some trimming on that vine and got it clipped to the trellis.

    I pinched back some lower leaves on the banana peppers. I started with 2 AG pods of peppers but when I thinned them I moved the culls to their own baskets so now I have 5 banana pepper plants. I still can't bear to throw the culls away.

    I picked a small bowlful of cherry tomatoes from the plant in the kitchen. That little plant is 8 months old and still going strong.

    I am back to my happy place with AGs. Having the small plants appear and thrive, and getting to spend hours a day puttering with them is so relaxing. I didn't realize how much I have missed it.

    This is day 4 for a new variety of cucumber that I'm trying. Seeds are the very definition of "a miracle."

    Beth that is a neat system, we really liked hydroponics when we used greenhouse, keeping temp right was a pain for us old folks.
    Inside like yours would be doable. So may try that soon as we get ready for winter.
