    9-Pods for the Kitchen Table :D

    The 9-Pod Gourmet Herbs pack is Herbalicious! Haha, okay, okay, bad joke but seriously, this is an excellent companion blend of general cooking and garnishing herbs to grow in your very own AeroGarden. Backed by their unconditional 30-Day Seed Germination guarantee, AeroGarden backs its pods and by purchasing this 9-pod kit it’ll ensure short of a Farm Model, you’ll have extras to try out whenever you want to swap pods. I thoroughly enjoyed growing these in me and my girlfriend’s Farm 24XLs and the basil went wild haha! Honestly, if you’re able to put these in a Farm 24XL it’d be the best fit if you want to do nearly all (or all :) of these at once. Just make sure you prune and trim conservatively but not so much that you kill your budding herbs. It’s fine to let them grow and spread out a little, just try and hold off from your first harvest until you’re ready to use them immediately or just to dry them out. Bottomline, buy this because it’s priced the same or better than Amazon with AeroGarden behind their guarantee wherever you may purchase their kits at, Oh! and you get MyBestBuy points too! Definitely come check out the official Reddit r/AeroGarden for more tips and a helpful community to grow with too!

    This is my first seed pod kit where every pod sprouted!! The Curly Parsley took a little but that was expected. Best Buy shipping was great, as always.

    Unfortunately 2 of the 9 pods have not bloomed. I uploaded a picture showing the 2 pods. All were planted at the same time. The other pods look good.

    Very happy with the quality of these plants. My garden has grown very fast and thriving. The only thing I would say is not to mix this kit with other kits. Some plants such as the tomato’s can takeover the herbs and cause them to die. I had to replant due to this.

    Bought these to accompany the aerogarden. We enjoy the product and found them easy to use. We are at ~150 days with the basil, mint, and chives. They just keep growing as they are used.

    They all grew well, but the lids really don’t fit half the time. Not that you need them on for long, but they are fussy.

      We're sorry for any confusion. The domes do not need to fit securely on the seed pods. They are there to protect the seed/seedling as it is initially germinating and developing. You may see condensation on some domes, but not on others. This is to be expected. If you want, you can add some water to the tops of the pods, but this is not necessary. Please reach out to our Customer Service Team on the Aerogarden website with any further questions or concerns.

    After 2 days of germination, I had plants starting. So far, I have been impressed with the plant growth. I gave this unit 4 stars because of the aero garden label. I ended up pulling the label off and reinstalling it because of the cap that is put of top. If the cap does not fit flush on the top of the unit, it nags you or moisture does not keep in the cap. The moisture is on the top of the unit.

    Product started to grow except for the Thyme. All I need is a new thyme pod please. The growing process is so neat to watch. I am enjoying this purchase. I just wish the thyme would have sprouted. I can not wait to see these grow to full size and be able to use them in my recipes. Fresh herbs...nice

    This was part of a gift paired with an AeroGarden planter. The products are great and Best Buy had them in stock to ship in time for Christmas. Only downside was that both shipments were damaged. Fortunately the products themselves were OK (as far as we know) but the handling left much to be desired.

    Bought these herbs with my AeroGarden. After 25 days, all are growing well (some sprouted within the first 8 days) and should be ready to begin harvesting within a couple of weeks. I love having fresh herbs growing in my kitchen!

    All sprouted except Thai Basil, I didn't see any seeds in there so I'm not surprised. Only one thyme plant grew so I'm kind of sad about that. But the basil and the mint took off!
