blowinbig, I'm not currently having any problems, they seem to be doing pretty good though I do have some questions. First off, I'm using bag seed, I planted 6 days ago in my AG without germinating.

All 7 have sprouted now but I don't know how long I should veg or when to start flowering. I've read several posts here saying to start flowering after only a week of veg but that just doesn't seem right to me (I'm assuming they're talking about clones, not from seeds). Can you clarify for me please??

Also, should I keep the pump running 24hrs when I switch the lights to 12/12??

And lastly for now, what nutes do you recommend for now & flowering??

Other then that, identifying males/females will be my next challenge...

I'm also using bag seed...i threw mine into flowering like a week from seed...but i would recommend a little bit more time...maybe 2 weeks or so...
I keep the pump running on salad greens 24 hours and use the technaflora starter pack for success it was about 20 bucks
Another thing i do is top the water off everyday with nute water
i just have gallons of nuted water and just dump it in as I go...

what dat you at flowering? you should go realisticly 70 days but alot of people dont. the 70 day mark makes it not just good bud its called headies at that point.

Ok here are some pics of my setup. I went to Home Depot last night and picked up some supplies that let me mount more lights all the way around my AG. Basically converted an old end table into a portable growroom with adjustable lights to move as the plants grow.

Check it out, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Looks good Blow...you still have time tho...

Winn: I like your setup too.... your going to have great results as long as you get some good nutes and keep the ph steady.....

How are you going to keep it pitch black in there for 12/12 flowering?

Peace

Thanks...I have the window in the room completely blacked out. A friend of mine hung a bunch of blanket on the inside of the door to his growroom and it seemed to work pretty good (just very hard to get in the room), I was going to do the same and just not go in there obviously when lights are off. I will probably end up hanging a blanket on the outside of the door just to be safe.

What nutes do you suggest? The only thing I have now is what came with the AeroGarden. Some ppl told me they would work ok but I would prefer to get better. And I shouldn't use any for the first two weeks, correct? I don't have a ph test kit, picking one up tomorrow and I might go ahead and get a 400watt hps because I won $4,500 last night playing online poker and it's burning a hole in my pocket...WOO HOO!!!
