If you grow culinary plants, it is important to continu-
ally harvest to keep plants healthy and productive.
Here are some general guidelines for harvesting plants
grown in an AeroGarden.
Do not remove more than a third of leaves or
stems from any one plant at a time.
Harvest just before using for best flavor.
Remove ripe fruit.
As you harvest, try to keep plants at about the
same height so they all receive enough light.
After harvesting, lower light(s), if necessary.
How to harvest each plant depends on plant’s structure
and growth. Here are some general guidelines for some
common plant types.
Leafy Greens
(such as lettuce varieties)
Remove entire leaves by
cutting at base of the leaf.
To ensure healthy new
growth, do not harvest all
the leaves from any one
Grow Pod. For continuous
harvesting, we suggest you
never harvest more than
1/3 of a plant at any time.
