One thing to be real carefull of in aero is that the pumps will heat up your water which can be a bad thing. Make sure to check water temps. I had to use a water chiller when I used aero but now I am back to hydro which works a lot better for me.Defcon9, I basically just do a few trims here and there every couple of days on different plants. I don't take that much off at one time, but good to know
Jason and darkdestruction, I think tying down would probably be a better way to go than trimming (less stressful), but I have to rig something to tie the stems to. When you tie the plants i.e. LST, do you ever untie them? Or do you let the side branches develop a bit and flower them in the tied down position?
What has happened is that I'm trying aero for the first time and the plants ran away on me a bit. I'm trying to obtain and set up a filter/fan duct system and it's been slow going, so the plants are still in veg because I'm not ready to deal with odor yet. I wanted to have it all set up 2 weeks ago, but it just hasn't worked out, and the plants (bless em) just keep vegging away like a freight train!
