I have 8 Harvest units and 3 Bounty units. Growing tomatoes was a bit difficult and time consuming because they got so large, I was always pruning them. I decided to grow tomatoes outside on the lanai instead. The Bounty did well with peppers but they did not grow to full size. I also decided to grow my peppers outside and they produced much better. I do have great success growing various salad greens and herbs in the Harvest units. Currently I'm growing many types of lettuce. Butter crunch, Parris Island Cos, Gourmet lettuce, Arugula, Spinach, Dandelion, Iceberg. And I will soon be starting baby Bok Choy and Swiss Chard. And the greens stay fresh in the fridge for months, unlike greens from the supermarket which last a few days or a couple of weeks.

If you haven't found MIGardener seeds by now, you should check them out. I get better germination from MIG than Baker's Creek. Love them both though.

I don't know how you can say you don't recommend the sprout because it's "too small". It's good for people in small spaces or apartments, or smaller kitchens. It's whatever works best for someone given their circumstance.

@karenm2334 5 ай бұрын

We’re definitely constrained by the maximum height of the unit, but I’ve had difficulty when things have grown to wide, and one plant has crowded out another such that it doesn’t get enough light. I’ve also had mold or mildew at the base of plants which I attributed to lack of air circulation. Any thoughts?

@SherSheGoes 5 ай бұрын

depends on what you're planting! some need more space than a single hole, so you can leave some slots empty

@user-oe2bq7xy7r Жыл бұрын

Thanks for all the info, this was very useful. After years of wanting to do this I bought a sprout just to see how it works (firsthand.) Basil has started sprouting. When i figure out where I can make some room I might get one of the larger ones.

@SherSheGoes Жыл бұрын

I don’t usually hear the pump! But you can double check if things are working, there should be a “test pump” option on the unit

@lyndamclean6786 Жыл бұрын

Hi new just purchased harvest elite want to grow lettuce herbs sm tomatoes maybe bok choy too. First time using. Where should the knob for the pump be? Pls. Left Right or in center? The directions don’t say all i get when i search is “if the pump isn’t working”

@SherSheGoes Жыл бұрын

Hm not sure what you mean by knob. The pump is inside the grow basin, and for set up there should be a cord in the back that you plug in. I have a Harvest set up video that walks through it: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/lbZ2iLemrbXDpIU.html
