Aerogarden Pro 200 First Grow!. Advice!

i have 2 plants going great after just 3 weeks and little crowns popping up everywhere i have the settings on tomatoes and manually turn the light on after its off for 3 hrs. I went to a hydro shop after reading how crap the nute tabs were and they hooked me up with their own blend (looked like a couple of stoners so trusted their advice) they told me they heard mixed reviews also, but glad to say plants are short and stumpy and growing great havent had to heighten my light yet and i have some mint growing alongside the plants to add a nice minty taste. Ive had bad luck growing outdoors (theft, gardeners accidently spraying weed killer on it etc) so i thought the aero garden would be the best. It in my opinion for a non experienced grower is awesome and very hard to stuff up if u follow these simple rules... 1. dont use the nute tabs most posts i see where people use them they have probs and switch to liquid nutes pretty quickly
2.the lights on the ag hood are fine till budding stage then go out and get some stronger lights bout $100 (till then place cardboard wrapped in tinfoil to reflect most light back at your plants)
3.the best advise u can really get is from people in the hydroponics grow shops u can spot the most likley andidate to help u when u walk in and be honest they probably grow it themselves)

I think I jumped the gun on the sexing, don't think you can tell yet. Got some pics of the nodes, FAT AS HELLLLLLL!!!! I just can't believe my first grow is working so well, how can anyone doubt the aerogarden??!?!?! it is a perfect beginner tool for sure... Heres some eye candy

PICS :eyesmoke:

Picture 1: is my final set-up. I got another fan to blow from both sides, and also one of those twisty shower rods, that I use across my grow "cubby" to hang the lights, all three bulbs in the reflectors are 42 W warms bulbs, three AG lights still running of course.

Picture 3: Fat ass nodes and topping as well, no sign of sex?

I was looking through the feeding schedule for the foxfarms and noticed that week 7 an 8 say not to use any tiger bloom and only grow big...should I do this? Seems weird to me. Can you add both?

Also, is the flush it talks about before week 7 really necessary, will I be fine not doing it?
