    My first grow experiment

    Thanks, I'll try and take a better pic tomorrow. What do we think about pic 2?

    My first grow experiment

    Ah, Nute burn I can cope with. Look at Thyme 1510b and open the pic up full and zoom in a little, surely you can see the little white girly tendrilly things? Again if you zoom into Dill 1510b and open the pic up full and zoon in a little, that looks like little boy buds. I know the pics...

    My first grow experiment

    Definitely my plan. For now, this is still all experimental and small. Ok, for an update. I went away for two days and they went Icarus on me. Got a little too close to their bulbs and crisped a little. Not sure if I should trim/remove the damaged leaves. Since they are on 17.5 on and 6.5 off...

    My first grow experiment

    Latest update. Thyme and Dill seem to be doing fine. I've upped them to a whole AG nutritab. I've topped them as I don't want them much taller and I want to concentrate on the side shoots now. Basil is still alive, though the poor thing was hit by it's CFL falling on it. It's next to...

    My first grow experiment

    That's my plan, just started working again so..... :) The soil plant isn't taking up much room and it's just aborbing water, might as well see what happens to it for now. What are on the stalks? Probably no sign of anything useful, just curious.

    My first grow experiment

    Quick update... The two I left in the AG seem to be doing fine, though still haven't had time or money to get the pH adjusted, will do eventually. They are still growing and it's still early days so I'm not stressing... I did a close up of the stalks near the main leaves, not sure what these...

    My first grow experiment

    Will both together make them greener looking? I planted some soil based seeds from the same packet. They are a much darker green in colour. Still not too sure what to do with poor little Basil. The deformity has me worried. I'm tempted to just remove the plant from the AG and concentrate or...

    My first grow experiment

    Haven't had chance to get the pH modifier, but here's how they look now, they're almost 4 weeks old now.

    I'll get some pH modifier as I'm currently on about 6.

    My first grow experiment

    Well this is how they looked before I changed the reservoir again and added another half of the small nutritabs. Dill looks fine, albeit a little yellow. Thyme also looks fine, though there are a few small brown spots on the leaves and the one browned tip. The dying bottom leaves don't concern...

    My first grow experiment

    Thanks :-) At the moment the AG nutritabs are all I have, will try and get some from the local hydro store when cash permits.

    My first grow experiment

    4 days later. I gave them fresh water with a half of the small nutritabs. Some are still looking a little yellow. Any thoughts?

    My first grow experiment

    Hi all, Just thought I'd share my little attempt with my AG. It's all experimentation and I'm not going to stress out if this fails, though I'd rather like to succeed :) I planted 3 "Big Cheese" seeds into a SpaceSaver 6 AG two weeks ago. They have lived on the salad cycle, which is 16.5 hours...

    Dutch Master Hydroponic Nutrients

    Thanks "SICC" much appreciated :) I just thought it was funny going into a hydroponics shop, finding a brand called Dutch Master, going home googling it and only finding links to marijuana :-P and nothing about the hydro nutrients.

    Dutch Master Hydroponic Nutrients

    Hi, I came across Dutch Master Hydroponic Nutrients while looking for Fox Farm ones in my local Hydro store. Can anyone tell me if they've used these in their Aerogarden and if so, which from this line they would recommend? Thanks!

    Has anyone any experience with these "Big Cheese" seeds?

    Well so far 8 out of the 10 have germinated, though I managed to snap one as I was transplanting it (don't ask me how I don't even know myself how I did that!!). So I'm down to 7 possibles, with maybe 2 late showers or duds. Once they are growing, how long until I'll be able to take a photo and...

    Seeds and Leaves Question

    Thanks Brick Top, sounds like it's a balancing act between timing it well enough to get viable seeds and still get something more from the buds. Anyone able to provide any insights there?
