      period ended September 30, 2006 of AeroGrow International Inc.;





2.
            Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain
      any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
      necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under
      which
      such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered
      by
      this report;





3.
            Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and
      other financial information included in this report, fairly present in all
      material respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows
      of the small business issuer as of, and for, the periods presented in this
      report;





4.
            The small business issuer’s other certifying officer
      and I are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls
      and
      procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the
      small business issuer and we have:





(a)
            Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or
      caused such disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our
      supervision, to ensure that material information relating to the small business
      issuer, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others
      within those entities, particularly during the period in which this report
      is
      being prepared;





(b)
            Evaluated the effectiveness of the small business
      issuer’s disclosure controls and procedures and presented in this report our
      conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures,
      as of the end of the period covered by this report based on such evaluation;
      and





(c)
            Disclosed in this report any change in the small
      business issuer’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during
      the small business issuer’s most recent fiscal quarter (the small business
      issuer’s fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report) that has
      materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the small
      business issuer’s internal control over financial reporting; and





5.
            The small business issuer’s other certifying officer
      and I have disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation of internal control
      over financial reporting, to the small business issuer’s auditors and the audit
      committee of the small business issuer’s board of directors (or persons
      performing the equivalent functions):





(a)
            All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses
      in the design or operation of internal control over financial reporting which
      are reasonably likely to adversely affect the small business issuer’s ability to
      record, process, summarize and report financial information; and





(b)
            Any fraud, whether or not material, that involves
      management or other employees who have a significant role in the small business
      issuer’s internal control over financial reporting.
