Unfortunately, though, I hate shopping for fresh herbs and supermarket tomatoes depress me.
So this past winter, I pulled the trigger and tested a slew of different indoor gardens.
Specifically, tender herbs like dill, basil, cilantro, parsley, chives, and Thai basil.
Aerogarden overhauled their app a few weeks ago, and it has made all the difference.
But I liked that they also had a swappable panel to let you use just two seed sites.
The more seed sites and closer together, the more crowded the plants are and fighting for light.
Ihad onefor a while, and people either passionately love or disavow these towers.
Im convinced its because they dont grow the right stuff in them and set themselves up for disappointment.
But if cut-and-come-again greens will keep you happy all winter, this is a great investment.
Rise Roma has attempted to disrupt this problem with a design that lives somewhere between Aerogarden and LettuceGrow.
When I reset the Roma shortly, Im going to give eggplants and peppers a go.
