Hey Every time Ive used my aerogarden the rez temps would be kinda high because of all the cfl's i use....I've never had a problem.....and after it grows enough to block outthe light from hitting the grow surface the water stays pretty cool because the leaves catch the light and heat more...

Peace

How any cfl's u using? how is the vent in the room? dimensions? the water should be covered anyway it hsould never be getting light that causes alge and then root rot! YAY no so make sure from the start you have your water coved up and u wont have the temp problem :D:hump:

How far is your light away from the tops of your plants? what is your water temp? what is your room temp? ph level?

Believe it or not WIth 7 25 w lights surrounding the aerogarden rez, like how it is for the first few weeks (at least with my grows)...to keep the cfls close as possible...cfls do produce heat, although little, it can accumulate over 18 hours...

And the room is fine with plently of ventilation and no light gets in the rez....

I always have high temps in the rez for the first few weeks with no problems, no nothing...I change the water every week most of the time...maybe that helps...or maybe the aerogarden is just freaking awesome!

Peace

I got a digital thermo, and the temps range from 68 to 90 degrees there is also a fan to keep it cool and for ventilation. Humidity 40 to 55. The light is 7 to 8 inches away from them. Don't know the Ph level. I hear from people who have harvested from the aerogarden just using Aergarden Nutes all the way through. Just cut the dosage back to half of one a week. Mylar you say, Ill deffinetly agree I need some better Reflection. I will go invest in that. How much is it, and where can I get it?

Cheap like 20 for a 20 foot long 4 foot wide roll. keep the temps between 70-80 (OP 77) when lights are on.
60-69 wen lights are off (OP 65-66)
You can get the mylar by wither eating alot of potoato chips, and using the bags :D going to an arts and craft store and just ask someone, you can get At a hydro store check out my post https://www.rollitup.org/general-marijuana-growing/61864-noobs-read-where-find-what.html u can find where to get everything you need!

In some areas LEO actually does look into all of the sales receipts, and they can get your credit card info, address, what not. If it's illegal to grow where you live, I would look into paying cash and/or having the stuff delivered to a diff place than your grow op.

Unless you are spending LARGE amounts of money on your CC at a hydro store and walking out of there with boxes and boxes of shit then you have about a 5% chance of anything happening. Law enforcement need warrents to beable to go andlook through all your infomation (cc info ect) Warrents cost money and not only that, they need a VERY VERY good case to be able to get a warrent from a judge to be able to get your CC records, you have nothing what so ever to worry about. the key thing is to not tell anyone that you grow or have anything to do with it. ou have nothing to be worried about when it comes to the hydro store. just cover your tracks when growing:D
