Yeah good luck with your grow man. I would like to see what other ppl make of them and also want too see what morp's 400w hps does to them. I had a good cfl light source but the hps should get you well over an oz of each one, poss 2.
Are you u.s drgreenthumb? if so maybe you could share with the others where you are going to get your seeds from.

I'm smoking one now and it's doing the job well 
The smoke i have is not really buddy due to the seeds, but what was left is nice and sticky.
I got it in jars now and it gets tastier by the day.
If i were to pollinate again i would definitely do what i saw abudsmoker does and just pollinate the pistols on the stem. I got way too many seeds and way not enough smoke

How many plants did you have in your AG? I,m down to one now that I pulled two that were males.
How long was your grow (how many days from plant to harvest?)
Thanks for the help, O2

O2,
I was left with only one female also. After i pulled the last male out she just took over the room.
72 days from seeds popping to harvest
When i harvested i wanted to see lots of fat brown seeds and i was also checking the trics. The point i harvested the trics where 50/50 cloudy amber.
Again not sure how long she will go unseeded, maybe a little less.
I read this guy's post, on another site, who seeded one in soil. He said he harvested at day 75 but he thought his where way too early. He got lots of green seeds. I got hardly any , just a few around the top of the bud sites, and i harvested mine 3 days before him(gotta love hydro/aeroponics).
Over 70 odd days i reckon i ended up about a week or even 2 ahead of hi.
Not sayingit flowered faster cause (i dont think you cant change that), but the veg time must have been reduced considerably.
Apparently they take 7 1/2 flowering weeks.

hey greenthumbs, i ended up with just one girl too. will be at four weeks on wednesday. lots of hairy branches and a very hairy top. need to tie her down a little i think
i left her on 12/12 400w hps for a while as i was away for a few days and she seems to of stretched a bit so im whacking her on 18/6 again today. 12 hours 400w hps and 6 hours 145w cfls.
ill let you know how she goes!

dursky nice site some of those look tasty.
morp i dont know if you need to worry about the stretching. try tying her down and see if that works to get more light through , otherwise i would let her stretch.
Do you think it was the light hours change or the fact that your hps would be further away?

GreenThumbs,
Thanks for the info-I was beginning to think all the AG people had vanished.
I'm currently at 58 days. I actually germinated in the AG so that probably cost me about a week of time. I've been in the 12/12 stage for about 26 days. I'm using fox farm big grow, tiger bloom & big bloom. I 'm sort of varrying their use and using 1tsp to one gallon of distilled water. My unit was using about 5 cups of nutrients a day until I pulled the males which were my best plants. Now I'm using less than a cup a day. The female has stretched some & I have her tied town in two places. You can check my pics if you go back through my posts but I'll post a fresh one of my girl later today.
I don't understand what you mean about seeing seeds on your female. It was my understanding that you would not see seeds unless she was polinated. What did you mean?
I'd like to start a second grow in my AG. I certainly have the room. I haven't done that though as I would have to start the grow on 12/12 and I have no Idea how that would work. Any suggestions. Also can I insert a clone in there while the unit is on 12/12?
Thanks for your help. I hope you keep posting.

O2 she is pollinated dude you must read better it is clearly stated a few times in this thread.
I would like to see pics of yours , where you the one with the low aswell as another plant in your setup?
I am not experienced i'n growing or cloning so i couldnt comment really on them. But as a guess i would say it was a no no. You'd have to get another setup.
I have built myself another aerogarden mock up that i will use to flower in and i am using the ag for clones. Hopefully i got enough room in my box for a couple of small mothers in soil.

i think the stretch was due to both to be honest. the light hour change, and the fact that my hps is about 1.5' away from the top of the lr2. i cant bring it any closer because of my other, taller girl.
hopefully the stretch is complete now, specially as she'll be getting 18/6 now. ill let you know whether the 18/6 makes much difference over the 12/12, or whether it was the hps distance that made the stretch. i hate stretch!
anyways, i have a journal too which i havent updated in ages, the links at the bottom. ill get some new pics and info up this week so you can see the progress.

oh, and o2, you can grow straight from seed on 12/12 lighting, it will just produce less. check out this link for the home of the green chicken!

Sorry greenthumbs-missed your thread on polination. I read through all of the ag threads starting with Tek's. People just seem to quit writing though & I wind up on threads that I don't remember.
Got it!! You polinated some lower branches of your female. I was hoping to do the same thing. After I moved my males outside we had some late frost. They look sad but I think they will make it. Any polination will be delayed.
Here are the pics I said I would post.
Peace, O2

burnin_one,
The smoke isnt the best i've had but i hope for improvements. You should start your own thread on your little babies.
O2,
I let nature take it's cause and pollinated the whole thing. Next time if necessary i would self pollinate a few bits.
I dont know why the ag ppl stop talking maybe tek got bombarded with too many pm's all asking the same questions over and over again. Even though all they have to do is read what was already written.
Are you flowering with just the ag lights?
Adding any amount of red light will help increase your yield. The more light you give them the higher the yield.

My plant really doesn't fill up the unit yet but I have three additional grow lights in addition to the AG light. I agree that more light is better in most cases.
Did you get a chance to look at my pics? What do you think?
Thanks, O2

Yeah o2 looking good , your coming up to half way through flowering probably ,so they should fill out some more soon.
When you say extra grow lights, what are they exactly (watts,spectrum and bulbs)?
Start your own thread so you can keep us updated on your grow

It looks a little sparse to me but I had so much in there until I had to pull the males.
I'll get the light information for you tomorrow. The lights are 40 watt grow lights, flourescent thats all I know until I check my paperwork tomorrow. I've been flowering for about five weeks. Do you think I have about another five weeks until harvest?
I've actually posted on this grow since day one. As someone who has never grown hydropohonically and esentially hasen't grown in over 20 years I was trying to get my information from more expereinced growers and not waste anyones time. If you look at the history of my posts you will see the chronological history of my grow.
It seems as if all the Aerogarden people I was following have vanished.
Hope you hang in there.
