They look great man! Honestly, it looks like it's growing done right. The leaves look really full so far. Just make sure they get plenty of light!

Supz Zauren. Your plants look awesome! Nice and fluffy leaves. Shades of green are very healthy. The only con I see with your setup is that they might get crowded soon Then again if you handle em right you may end up likin it Keep em comin!

Hey man. Shit looks looks good. The burnt tops should have at least a lil new growth. As for your next grow I would suggest going DWC or Soil. IMHO I don't like aero gardens to much. Any ways keep it up man.

The best part about the aerogarden. After you used it to learn the concept of DWC and the basics of reservoir maintenance, it makes a kick ass cloner.
You will seriously love using that thing as a cloner after this grow.

Root cutting in aerogarden.
Transplant into buckets.
Win.

thanks yo yeah the aero is pretty cool to fuck around with learn what she likes and not i wanted to see which works better so i fimmd the back plant and i didnt do anything to the front one and DAM the back one exploded lol all i did was wait for a new growth, i think it was the 4th node and i trimmed off about 75% of the new growth with some scissors. im pretty happy for my first grow so far my room is starting to smell pretty bad lol cant wait for the end stick around ill be putting more pics up STAY HIGHH!!!
