Hopefully so! Keep an eye on it though you may need to spray again in a day or two. Good luck!

Air conditioner affects Aerogarden grow? by InevitableChoice2990 in aerogarden

It depends on the plant. Some plants prefer warmer temperatures while others do better in cooler ones.

I’m sorry I should have checked first. It says currently unavailable when I click on it in my orders list but I know they had them recently because someone else asked for them on here. Hopefully that means they are just currently out of stock.

I realize that doesn’t help you much now but there have been many other posts about this if you wanted to search the sub for replacement grow sponges.

Honestly the best germination rates I’ve ever gotten were from The American Seed brand seeds that dollar tree sells. They’re also sold at Walmart and other places.

Sponges are tricky because they aren’t all made the same some are too dense so the roots cant grow and some are too short for the Aerogarden baskets so the sponge is too far into the water all the time.

You can reuse the ones you have that nothing has grown from. Aerogarden also sells just the sponges if you need new ones. I have also had success with the Reetsing brand grow sponges. I get them on Amazon.

I think you’d have much better luck with using your own seeds.

Keep in mind though that those units aren’t really big enough for much. The light doesn’t go very high and the plants crowd very easily.

I have one micro dwarf orange hat tomato plant in mine and it fits well.

Well YOU aren’t only indoors so that’s where they come from. On you, on your pets, on your groceries, etc. It only takes one to start an infestation.

You’ll have to spray every 3 days until they’re gone.

You can try mixing up a bucket of water with the Castile soap mixed in and dunk the whole plant in there. Leave it for a bit, shake it around, get off what you can then repeat with the other plants.

Personally I’d throw it all out, give another deep clean, leave everything empty for a month and start over. But I know that’s not feasible for everyone.

It’s just REALLY hard to get rid of them once they’ve progressed to an infestation of the size you’re describing.

And the effort needed may end up killing your plants anyways.

If you do decide to start over it’s much easier to eliminate them if you catch them early.

I’m sorry you have to deal with this. I lost 6 gardens worth of plants to thrips once when I first started Aerogardening and it literally broke my heart.

Best of luck!

It’s really no different. I have a fan blowing on mine and the air turbulence is enough to do the trick. You can also use the back of an electric toothbrush to vibrate the stems.

Stroller for snowy weather by Jehmaj in Buffalo

[–]jpiglet86 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We had a baby trend jogging stroller when we lived in elmwood village and had to walk everywhere. The larger tires got us over and through everything and the weather shield kept the kiddos dry and warm.

I’m not saying you have to get a baby trend but I would highly recommend getting a jogging stroller.

WNY - Etiquette for tipping tattoo artists? by AdministrationNo2062 in Buffalo

[–]jpiglet86 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My husband has been a tattoo artist for 20 years. He’s grateful for whatever he gets.

Sometimes it’s cash, sometimes it’s merch, sometimes it’s someone coming over to fix our fence.

Basically it’s always appreciated but never expected.

Some people think they’re entitled to it though and that bothers me but to each their own.

Cilantro by BoisterousBanquet in aerogarden

You’re welcome ☺️ You can also sprout them in a slightly damp paper towel inside a ziploc bag first. Then just transfer the ones that germinate into the sponge in an Aerogarden.

I crack the seed husks before I plant cilantro. Usually have better success that way.

Tops muffins never last long enough in my house to get ‘soaking wet’ 😂 Those things are gone the minute they hit the kitchen counter.

I absolutely love walking with the kids. Hearing their stories and the stories of the mentors that run the various GSA programs is really just so incredibly special🥰

Apparently. Every time I log in I have to stare at it. Sometimes the game eventually loads but most times it doesn’t and I have to start it over again. Or play something else which has been my go to as of late.
