Dude,
I'm an aero grower too. I did'nt buy an actual AeroGarden but I have a homemade aero system.
Aeroponic growing has been shown to produce even better than the it's parent - hydroponic growing.
Things to keep in mind is that I recommend you trimming the plants' roots when they reach the solution cause the whole idea behind aero is just that AIR. Watch the ph like a mofo. Aero growing requires a slightly more acidic ph around 5.6 is best. The lower ph helps keep root decay at bay. I also use an air stone in my solution tank. Adds O2 obviously but it also unlocks the carbon dioxide in the water. If you use an air stone u need to read your nute labels closley cause some of them should not be used with airstones.
Carry on my friend. I'm sold on aero growing
