Good video. I have the AeroGarden farm my self and I have experienced nothing of what you have experienced. One thing that the Farm has that the LetPot might not have is the sun rise and sun set feature so during the summer time you can have the lights start off dim then go to 100% brightness over 180 minutes and sun set the lights will dim over 180 minutes.
Thanks for the tips!
Awesome review! Now I have another item to add to my shopping cart!
This video just helped me make my decision. Thanks!
I’m so glad it was helpful!
A common cause of apparent calcium deficiency is nutrient lockout from having the pH and/or ppm off.
I’ve been reading more about that. I need to do a deep dive to learn more on ph when it comes to hydroponic systems.
Ph 5.5 to 6.5 best for hydroponics @@HomegrownFloridaZ9a
Excellent comparison of the two hydroponic systems. One of the major points of comparison is the size of the units. The LetPot stuffs 21 pods into its 10"x 15" grow deck where other systems might put 9 or 12 pods. This tighter spacing is not always a good thing and can cause spreading plants like lettuce to get jammed together and not produce well. Many aerogardeners regularly leave up to half their pods unused to allow the remaining plants to spread out, covering the empty ones with spacers.
The larger size of the Farm is designed to allow more space per pod to grow larger items like peppers.
I agree. I don’t mind the size of the aerogarden due to your point exactly.
I never heard of the LetPot before. I’m gonna have to look into them.
Another thorough review! Well covered!
It does sound like you narrowed your plants' difficulties in the Aerogarden to the nutrient solution. Have you actually tried the LetPot solution in the Aerogarden? Since LetPot's bells&whistles are not really ready for prime time, even though their basic functions produce good plants (though you have to say that the water refill function really is kinda basic), I wonder if one of their less smart, non-wifi units would be a decent choice for someone who is cost-conscious, and does not really need the automation features. Thanks for hanging in there with Customer Service (or non-service) to see if you could make it work for us....the patience it must have taken!
Thank you so much. I think if your family really wants a steady supply of lettuce and other cool weather veggies during the summer, some form of hydro is a must in your gardening arsenal.
Yes, I definitely think the nutrients for Letpot is better but they only sell them in small quantities and they don’t provide ingredients so that makes me weary. I’m trying a few other types of hydroponic nutrients to see what might work better. I would wholeheartedly recommend the basic aerogarden bounty or harvest. Far less expensive than both of these and really straight forward. I have one and I still love it. Never had one issue. (And yes, customer service was frustrating 🤣. I’m guessing you could tell by my face in the video)
@@HomegrownFloridaZ9a No, you were the picture of professionalism; I just know how fun it is trying to explain how things work in the US and not having anything register at the other end. The engineer in China was probably wondering why anyone would want to grow vegetables indoors in such tiny quantities, even though it was an interesting exercise.
@@oreopaksun2512 Haha. You hit the nail on the head!
Aerogarden 24plus is like catching a lv 99 pickachu at early game
🤣
I have a 2 tier system RISE garden ,they on the app it figures a smart care for nutrient for the type of plants you have and their stage of growth
I’ve heard of those. Do you like the RISE? Maybe I’ll get that one next.
@@HomegrownFloridaZ9a love it. The app fugures the type and amount of nutrients needed by the type of plant you have and stage of development
@@HomegrownFloridaZ9a I also put a insect cover on in to cut possibility of insects because the first year I had it I had a misquito infestiin
Good to know. Thank you so much 😊
Curious, can you use almost any type of nutrient solution in these units? Or do the companies strongly suggest to use their nutrient solution?
They provide their nutrients which covers you for the first few plantings. I’ve seen many people switch to their preferred hydroponic system fertilizers though.

Thanks! Appreciate the quick reply ❤
What kind of herbs do you grow inside during the summer?
I mainly grow lettuce during the summer. Sometimes I will grow basil out in the hydroponics systems if it’s just too cold during winter or sorrel during summer but I usually transplant them out to the garden once the weather improves.
I would like to try non-Everglades tomatoes during summer. Do you think they would ripen before they become too big?
@@liamthompson9090 absolutely. I’ve grow. Cherry tomatoes in mine just fine. Aim for a patio or container variety. They do best in these systems. Aerogarden makes seed pod kits for tomatoes which grow super easy. Highly productive from my experience for such a small space.
Excellent ideas. Thanks 💯
I had to do a hard stop with the aphids indoor.
I’m on a two week break right now because of them. They got a little crazy.
Yeah, right!? I didn't know aphids could get to indoor plants! I definitely learned something new lol
@@grandviewoptics any insects that will attack your indoor garden can come indoors. You go outside, they get on your cloths, you go inside your home and they fall off your cloths and find your garden.
What you have there is actually an AeroGarden Farm 24 Plus. Not the XL. They are two different units. XLPlus is not a thing. 😉
Lol. Thanks. I got a bit mixed up.
@@HomegrownFloridaZ9a You're welcome. I'm a bit obsessed with them. Great video. I love my LetPots and my AeroGarden Farms.
As of 05/17/2023 Aerogarden is having a sale on all units. The Farm 24 Plus is $299 and there's a code CABIN20 for $20 off $100 or more. I got a farm 12XL, sadly I don't have space for 24XL. It was a little over $200 total, shipping was free.
Yes, they are having a great sale. I wish I would have known that when I recorded this video so I could have mentioned it.
Well thank you for sharing your time and experience with us 👍👍🌹💪🦫🇨🇦
