Illicit Use
Some controversy has surrounded the marketing of the AeroGarden, due to its viability as a means of growing marijuana. The product is sometimes used for this purpose, as is evident on discussion forums dedicated to the subject of marijuana cultivation. For decades before the availability of AeroGarden, marijuana growers had improvised a similar system for indoor gardening in order to evade authorities. The product seems to function as ready-made alternative. -
