 Love It January 5, 2009
I just purchased this mini to go with my existing Aerogardens. I was pleasantly suprised at the quality of construction -- it is very good.You do get your money's worth, and an extra sponge is included free. Yes, it is small, but that has it's advantages -- it is easy to find a spot for --and fits almost anywhere. And the small size makes it perfect if you only need a few herbs or greens. It is relatively quiet and my seeds sprouted quickly. The ability to pick your own seeds is very nice, and helps lower the long range cost. Like the other reviewer - I would suggest small/short plants. And replenishment supplies are very affordable -- $20 for three sponges and mix for 10 gal nutrient. If you want to try your hand at hydroponic growing without investing a lot, this is an excellent way to go. I think it would make nice fun educational project for children. One thing that caught me by suprise was the suggestion to use distilled water. For now it uses very little though. If it later uses a lot as mentioned by the other reviewer I may switch to regular tap water.

I wanted to try to do a little indoor gardening over the winter but didn't have the space for an Aerogarden, so when I saw the Power Plant Mini I was intrigued and had to check it out.
Like the Aerogardens, the Power Plant Mini grows plants in a soil-free environment using aeroponic technology, however with the Power Plant you aren't locked into buying expensive, proprietary seed kits - just buy ordinary seed packets for whatever you want to grow. It has holders that fit "competitor's seed pods" if you'd rather use them, but a packet of seeds is so much cheaper!
It doesn't come with a grow lamp, but it fits on a windowsill so if you have a sunny, south-facing window in your kitchen like I do you're good to go. The pump which sprays the water at the roots is fairly quiet - about as noisy as a small aquarium pump.
Would I try to grow something heavy or tall in a Power Plant Mini? No. (Though I might give it's larger "cousin", the Power Plant Pro, a try). But for herbs, greens, etc. it does what they say it does at a very affordable price.
 very mini July 15, 2008

this is an okay product but by "mini" they mean very small. it works fine but when your plant has a large root system you will be adding water every day, and you will need to tape the plant in place to support it. Herbs are okay but I don't recommend trying to grow tomatoes in it! Its small size does make it easy to move from place to place for better light.
