What to grow in your AirgardenUpdated 3 years ago
With the Airgarden, you can grow more than 150 different plants. The only real exceptions are root crops (such as carrots and potatoes), grapevines, bushes and trees.
As it creates a controlled growing environment, the Airgarden makes it possible to grow plants all year round wherever in Australia you are, provided you have 4+ hours of direct sunlight (you can even get away with 2+ hours if you're sticking to herbs and leafy greens).
But whilst there will always be something you can grow, there are some plants that will thrive better in certain locations and seasons. We break this down below.
