I have attempted three grow cycles so far. The 1st one putting the seed in the grow plugs to allow them to germinate. Bad move. Only one plant made it. After five weeks it was looking great with two weeks in the flowering stage lights 12 hours on/off' Then one day i was adding water and the fan fell flipped to high and blew directly on the plant snapping it in half. The next try I germinated three seeds and put them in the Aerogarden. All three grew very well put all three where males. Crap!!! Well i recently bought some AK48 feminized seeds from Nirvana in Ansterdam. I germinated the five seeds using paper towels and placed all five seeds in five of the six grow plugs of the Aerogarden Elite 6. I am using their lights and have a 14-watt LED Blue/Red on each side. I have a 3' x 3' x 6' H Grow Box which i have the Aerogarden, fan, lights and a seperate pump i am using. So far after three weeks i have two plants that made it out of five. I must say they look extremely good. They are small and bushy with small nodes with alot of new leafs on every node. I am using Flora Nova Grow and Bloom for nutrients. I have the lights on the Vegetable setting which has the light set at 16 hours On and 8 hours OFF. When i go into the flowering stage i have a timer i use that allows me to go to a 12 hour ON/OFF light cycle. You have to start the flowering stage early as the lights only go so far and some strains take forever to flower. This time i am going to take the Aerogarden lights off when the plants start hitting the lights at there hightest range. I am going to use a 150 watt HPS light for the remainder of the grow. I will post pictures if anyone wants or even reads this post anymore? Peace out. Mike.
