I received my Aero Garden liquid plant food, and it had a light tan color tone to it, as if it was a "weak" solution, even though I shook it gently to mix. I have used other Aero Garden liquid plant food bottles and it was a darker solution . Also, I get a white residue floating on top of and in the water AND on the sponges! I do not know what this is or how to avoid it happening, it happens EVEN though I sterilize it thoroughly in between "re starts"! I try to scrape it off with a toothpick, but not sure what is causing this!
Some of my sponges with fresh seeds don't even sprout! And I get a green algae on them, I guess from being so wet (water sogged)! I'm running out of sponges now.
Please advise. I have been very happily, successful previously, enjoying my salad. And I have (had to) "re start" every couple of weeks As There Has Been No Sprouting Results! Which is time consuming...and a waste if time and sponges!
I hope to hear from you soon. Thank You.
Sincerely, Janet Swearingen

Much less expensive than the 3 oz bottles. I only use this in my aerogardens so do not know if this is the cat's meaow for other systems. Currently have more than 60 tomatoes on 3 plants as my second harvest and am seeing new flowers as a third harvest.
