While we are now supplying you with an additional 3 months of nutrient tablets, AeroGrow International, Inc. cannot guarantee the continued success of your Garden. We suggest that as you use these nutrients, you order your next Seed Kit so that your AeroGarden® can quickly be replanted when your plants reach the end of their life cycle.

If you do this, we recommend keeping the Seed Pod in the Grow Surface to reduce algae growth; OR • Prepare for your next Garden (please refer to the Tending & Harvesting Guide included in your original Seed Kit).
