Basil Grows Best…in the AeroGarden

After 3 years of experience using the AeroGarden, testing different types of plants (some with great success and some with great failure), I have determined that my favorite thing to grow in the AeroGarden is Basil. Here’s why:
- Basil grows extremely fast in the AeroGarden
- Basil is not as sensitive to nutrient or light changes that may occur in the AeroGarden
- I think basil has the most variety of uses…from making pesto to putting on a cream cheese bagel (Mmmmm….)
- In the AeroGarden, basil just keeps growing and growing and growing.
- Nothing beats the aroma of fresh basil in the kitchen.
My all time favorite AeroGarden Seed Kit is the International Basil Seed Kit. It has 7 varieties of basil, even lemon basil that actually has a very strong citrus fragrance!
I recently started a new basil batch with the Master Gardener Kit, because there were a few other types of basil I wanted to try in my AeroGarden. So far I have Napolitano Basil (Big wrinkly leaves), Cinnamon Basil (cinnamon fragrance), Large Leaf Italian Basil, Thai Basil, Red Rubin Basil (purplish color) and in the other 2 spots I’m growing a few surprises that I’ll fill you in on later. So far they are doing excellent.
