Aerogarden: Week 3

A week makes a huge difference with the Aerogarden! Since my last Aerogarden post, I’ve seen so much growth in almost all of my herbs:

I’ve taken the protective caps off almost all of my herbs (chives and dill aren’t doing so well):

The biggest growth spurt came from the basil – look at how big it’s gotten!!:

I’m also excited to report that the thyme is doing really well:

I took the caps off the mint and the oregano (probably a little prematurely but I was too excited to wait for the herbs to pop out of the paper!). Both are growing more and more everyday:

The mint is just starting to pop out:

And finally, I can really tell that the chives want to come out of their soil, but they just don’t have the nutrients:

Luckily for them, I’m dropping in two tablets right after I post this progress report! By the way, I received my energy bill and it was $10 more than last month, but, I have been using the air conditioning so that affects the additional $10 added to my bill. Justin recommended I get a watt usage meter/monitor, but I don’t know if it’s worth the $20 investment. If I see a huge surge in my bill next month, I’ll invest in the monitor so I know exactly how much I’m spending on the aerogarden.
