check out my grow in my signature,


here somthing wrote up not too long ago



AEROGARDEN GROW SHEET
:leaf: BY "SICC" :leaf:

light hours:

1. 27/0 for seedlings
2. 18/6 for vegging
3. 1212 for flowering


Grow Time:

3-4 weeks vegging
9-12 weeks flowering

Lighting:

Stock AG lights for vegging. Add additional CLF's, total of 8-12 should be added throughout the veg-flowering stages. Connect a figure 8 cord (found at radio shack, or PS2 cable) to a timer to control light schedual. you can also change the settings to tomatoes. Daylight, blue spectrum for veggings, and softwhite, red spectrum for flowering. Mix of two should be placed throughout grow. or you can invest in an HSP/MH to set up, cheaper and better, but either is good :razz:

Nutrients:

Stock AG nuet tablets, 2 small tabs every two weeks, 1 big tab every two weeks. Or you can do 1 small tab every week for 8 weeks, last 2 weeks stop using tabs flushing before harvest. Dont using nutes until the plant is about 2 weeks old from the time the seeds were transplanted into the AG. Or you can use the Fox Farm line up, they have there own feeding schedule.

Preparation:

Fill to brim of AG, past the "fill to here" marker, once in flowering, the plants will triple in size and drink alot of water. Place and Airstone into AG, cover any unused grow spots, blocking any light from reaching the roots. Have a fan to keep rez water at a cool temp, and to strengthen the stem. A thermometer for proper temperature, and a PH tester. paper towel germination. Your plants will show sex after you put them into flowering, will show within the first month or about 14 days.


:leaf: END :leaf:

so thats it, this is what i have put together after a couple months of reading, reading, and more reading. I have not started my grow but will be up and running no later than the mid of December, NO LATER :wink:. hopefully this will help alot of people who are intrested in the AG. I am personally going to use it because of how easy it is to set it up and use. "set and forget" haha. I can really care less at this point to how my results come out as long as i am able to grow, it would make me happy. And obvisouly down the line i will upgrade to a better set up, but as of now this is what im going to use.:razz:
Again this is what i have put together from reading, so if you have any changes, better information or if you wante to add to this, please just quote it and add type away. thanks go's out to the A.G.E. Volcomi18. Korvette, Dank Dawson, DogTagz, GyspyBush and everyone else who supports the AG

EDIT: one more thing, reading the whole thread is the best way to learn, this is a good idea of what go's on, reading an putting it into your owrns words is the best way

well this is my first grow with the AG, make sure you use spring water and let it sit out for a day before you fill up the rez, i have the Aerogarden Pro 100 old skool 7 pod, i wouldnt plant more than 4 seeds, i did 5 to get a better female ratio, check out my grow in my signature, you need and air stone and air punp for the rez, and a PH tester, im using the stock AG nutes, they buffer the PH of the water, if you go in the hydroponics section of the forum, alot of people are using the AG, i can help you out wit any questions, but i would read up alil as well :leaf:

no prob, i would take off the AG hood cause the plants will out grow its maximun extension, and there upgrade bar is way too much, you can hang it your self and actually have it lower then it would usually go

tight, i read that, just use velcro and some way to hang.. but what about heat, i have a AG space saver growing legit herbs like its supposed to, and that boy gets crispy hot sometimes.

I would add add a fan then, mine dosnt get hot at all, probably cause i have the bigger one but a fan should keep the temps down
