Tomato for Areo garden
I was given one of these. I'd appreciate any recommendations, maximum clearance under the lights is 13 inches. Found a few on Tatianas site and tomato growers supply but wondered if anyone had personal experience

Wow, that's a really small space. You would need a micro-dwarf. Bitonto, Tiny Tim, and Yellow Pygmy all come to mind.

I grew Tiny Tim under my regular grow light. Started seeds on Thanksgiving Day. They grew quickly and produced okay for such small plants, but didn't have much flavor. In the end, I decided it wasn't worth it to grow them indoors.

Red robin? I've heard the flavor is quite good

I am experimenting the Burpee Power Pops in a new compact growing method, so far I like the sprawling low growth.

I only use mine as a grow light for my seedlings but for a very short time as I usually just use the abundant CA sunshine. I got my Aero Garden as a gift also. I think it is way overpriced.
