This kit contains everything needed to grow a blend of gourmet herbs. AeroGrow's AeroGarden home and kitchen garden Gourmet Herbs Seed Kit can quickly produce a tasty blend of cilantro, chives, Italian basil, Red Rubin basil, dill, mint and parsley. Cut fresh basil for spaghetti sauce, cilantro for salsa or chives to sprinkle on baked potatoes. Made for use in the AeroGrow AeroGarden, the Gourmet Herbs Seed Kit includes seven pre-planted seed pods (which act like mini-greenhouses regulating nutrient, oxygen and water) and starting and growing nutrients. Begin harvesting in only five weeks and continue harvesting for between four and six months! Container gardening was never easier!

Designed for use with AeroGrow's AeroGarden, the Gourmet Herbs Seed Kit includes everything needed to produce abundant, fresh and tasty herbs for months.

Bio-dome seed pods or mini-greenhouses encapsulate each seed for faster, healthier germination. The smart garden bio-dome regulates nutrients, oxygen and water delivery to the seeds as they grow. Open the seed kit box and place the seed pods into their assigned slots on the AeroGarden grow surface, making sure to have the label facing forward and pressing each pod in place firmly. No Green Thumbs required!

Time released aeroponics nutrients deliver a balanced blend of 85 macro and micro nutrients for optimal plant growth. Aero Grow's patent-pending pH balancing system automatically adjusts any water system's pH. Drop in a tablet when the AeroGarden Smart Garden Control Panel reminds you - about every two weeks.

Nutrient tablets consist mainly of mineral salts and provide the 13 micro and macro nutrients that all plants require in the right proportions for growing Gourmet Herbs in a container garden. The tablets also contain:

• Seaweed for 70 additional micro nutrients
• A pH balancing tap water buffer
• And a binder to hold the tablet together.

Use the nutrient tablets that came with the seed kit. AeroGrow nutrient tablets are specially formulated for each seed kit. Using a different seed kit's nutrient tablets may harm the plants you are trying to grow and result in less than optimal flavor and growth.
