You can't go wrong using the Aerogarden as a cloner, I've heard nothing but rave reviews about the AG when used this way. Check out Linen's and Things or Bed Bath and Beyond, they're liquidating the Aerogarden Classic inventory with 50%+ price cuts. I picked mine up for about 60 bucks, totally worth it!!
Cool man thanks. Its so cheap cause they are going out of business right? Yeah man, they would be great for cloneing I would think, as Aeroponics is.

Nah, the guy at Bed Bath and Beyond said they were just making room for the newer models. I know that Aerogarden stock has been doing poorly lately, hopefully they'll stay in business though!

I'm still not seeing any bud growth on the main stem of my tallest plant, does that seem a little strange this late into flowering? The other two plants are just bursting with buds, what do you suppose could be the problem? The top of the tallest plant is about 8 inches away from the light now, could the heat be stunting the growth?

You said late flowering, but they look like they are in early flowering from their size... That seed is just one that requires a long period to flower. A sativa, maybe. Problem with diff seeds from diff bags is that you just cant be sure where it came from.

Yo, Been keeping up with your grow from go. Congrats on your journey... you may want to write a letter to Envy : )
Where did you get it from?

Hey Joe, thanks for following my grow! :mrgreen: That's a great idea, I'm definitely going to write a letter to the fine makers of Envy, they're the best!! I got it from a local hydroponics store, it seems hard to find online; if you can't find it in either place, drop me a PM and we can work it out!

Are you working on a grow?

how do you have your CFL's set up. I have HPS, but I wanted a few CFL for side lighting. I want to hang them down on the sides. I know what to get for lights, but really not sure what I can get that I can hang like that, And not sure what there would be to buy that the CFL light would go in.

I usually grow with just HPS, but more lights the better, and I wouldn't mind adding 2 CFLs hanging for side lighting.

You could say I have a dynamic CFL setup ;-) I have two desk lamps on flexible heads, with the hoods taken off. I have two splitters on each lamp, giving me three bulbs per lamp. I keep the CFLs craned as close to the plants as possible--about an inch--and I readjust the CFLs daily, as the plants grow outward. I also position them so they are flooding new budsites, or areas shaded by fan leaves. CFLs are a great way of getting the hard-to-reach areas, you should do it!

Your grow is going great by the way!! :clap:

Day 55 - Saturday, 1/12/2009

Day 27 of Flowering
Day/Night Schedule: 12/12
pH: 5.5

1) Tied a string to the tallest plant to bend the main stem, and flood the lower budsites with light.

2) Buds grew overnight on the main stem of the tallest plant.

I have been reading this thread since the beginning...great work...inspirational. I only wish my wife would let me set up a grow area. But it is still fun to watch your progress and if she ever changes her mind I'll have your postings to guide me.

I have used an Aerogarden for 'regular' herbs, mostly basil and it works great. There is nothing better than making home made pizza and putting fresh basil on it...except if I had something growing in it to “stimulate” an appetite before the pizza!

Keep up the great work!

Kirk!!!! Thanks for following my grow man! I'm definitely going to try growing the standard Aerogarden herbs after I finish up this harvest, pizza and fresh basil sounds awesome :) You've just gotta unleash this little number on your wife:
