my last grow was with the ag classic and no extra pump and i turned out some nice lowryders so adding an aquarium pump and some extra lights would do nice. also i used ag nutes all the way from the second week.

I take back what I said earlier about the HPS, I didn't realize you were growing Lowryder. The HPS will be great all the way through, since Lowryder doesn't stretch much anyway! Looking forward to seeing some pictures!

here a lil write up i made

AEROGARDEN GROW SHEET
:leaf: BY "SICC" :leaf:

light hours:

1. 27/0 for seedlings (first 2 weeks)
2. 18/6 for vegging
3. 1212 for flowering


Grow Time:

3-4 weeks vegging
9-12 weeks flowering

Lighting:

Stock AG lights for vegging. ADD additional CLF's DURING VEGGING, Connect a figure 8 cord (found at radio shack, or PS2 cable) to a timer to control light schedual. DAYLIGHT blue spectrum for vegging, and SOFT WHITE, red spectrum for flowering. Mix of two should be placed throughout grow. or you can invest in an HPS/MH to set up, cheaper and better, but either is good :razz:

Nutrients:

Stock AG nuet tablets, DO NOT ADD UNTIL THEY ARE ABOUT TWO WEEKS OLD!!!! 2 small tabs every two weeks, 1 big tab every two weeks. Or you can do 1 small tab every week for 8 weeks, last 2 weeks stop using tabs flushing before harvest. Crush one side of the nute tab and pew mix into water that you will be addding into the rez, then wait a day and add the other half, making sure you dont burn any of your plants. Or you can use the Fox Farm line up, they have there own feeding schedule that you cn find online.

Preparation:

Fill to brim of AG, past the "fill to here" marker, use bottle water if you can, or you can buy gallon water jugs at like 5o cents each or somthing, let the water sit out for a day with out the cap on before you add into the AG rez. once in flowering, the plants will triple in size and drink alot of water. Place an Airstone into AG, cover any unused grow spots, blocking any light from reaching the roots. Have a fan to keep rez water at a cool temp, and to strengthen the stem. A thermometer for proper temperature, and a PH tester. paper towel germination. Place seed into a damp paper towel, place that into a zip lick bag, put in a dark cool place and they should crack within two days. Your plants will show sex after you put them into flowering, will show within the first month or about 14 days. Poke hole through the Growing sponge, then cut that in half. once connected to the Timer, the setting on the AG are just for the pump, keep it on Salad Greens to keep the pump on 24/7.


:leaf: END :leaf:

reading the whole thread is the best way to learn, this is a good idea of what go's on, reading an putting it into your owrns words is the best way

just noticed today each plant has a set of seven finger leaves. One of the plants has perfect leaves but the other has some wierd leaves. one leaf has 4 big fingers but looks healthy. could this be a male?

What's the ideal temperature of the area of the AG should be for your seedlings. I'm on my 3rd day after germination, now in the pod and the highest the temp in the room gets to 82-78 degrees. Lemme know what's ideal. thanks...
