where can i buy just grow nets and sponges? this isnt for the aerogarden, so anything similar, or what other people use would be fine.

I got white hairs popping out of all the nodes of my plants, how long before visible large buds will start growing? Also is I got a new aerogarden growing some clones, however one of those roots has furry stuff all over it but looks healthy, is that early sign of mold??

Give em some times, you wont really notice big growth of bud until the last couple weeks when the swell up before finishing. I dont think that is mold, just the roots, mine kinda look furry too haha:weed:

Got Aerogarden classic at target for 40 bux, cant find a cheaper cloning machine out there. I was stunned when I saw that just had bought that one I am using to flower in right now used for 70, and got a new one for 40. Yall might want to check up with targets in yalls area, real good deal.

Yeah... I put 4 of them into the AG last nite.. lets see what happens, the tap roots were barely pokin out of the seed shell.. Am I going to have to remove the seed shell myself or wil it come off as it grows... My first time around the tap root was real long and the shell had come off... Will it take a few days to actually grow out of the shell?? Just curious... I'll be hawkin them either way

I had one that sprouted with the shell still in place. I was going to remove the shell, but thought I should just let Mother Nature take care of things. It never grew further, and when I finally removed the shell myself, it was done growing. So I tossed it, and when my next one sprouted, I gently removed the shell immediately. At the least, I wouldn't let it stay that way for more than a couple of days, tops.

I tried a shotglass germ with an AG sponge/net in it and some water to keep it moist.

Took a while to sprout, I just stuck it on 12/12 with my other plant , the seed is in the dark inside the sponge, then when it sprouts it should be on a light cycle and it shouldn't stretch very much.

Hey Everyone,
I was wondering how important the air stone and pump is. Any pictures of people's set ups would be sick. Thanks
