[QUOTE="SICC";4051103]Lookin good man, give em a week or so and they will be nice and fully green, in hydro, pH is key. As long as its in line your plant will do fine[/QUOTE]

Hi Everyone,

Today is officially 21 days from seed and I have to admit, the girls are looking better than ever. With the help of SICC (thanks man), and everyone else giving input, I've been able to maintain little young healthy plants. I've attached some more pics.

Nice man, they look great, veg them out for a couple weeks and you will be set. The AG base looks a lil dirty tho, gotta keep the grow space clean haha.

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for all the advice as well as positive input. It's day 14 today, and the girls are looking real healthy. I finally ordered my LED grow light. Very excited to try that out. Heard nothing but great reviews. I've attached more pics. Any more advice?

You should cover the unused holes to keep light out of your reservoir.

Day 25:

The girls are looking fantastic. The quad spectrum LED light finally has arrived, and the girls seem to love it. It was perfect timing, because one of the AeroGarden bulbs had burned out. I find that a little odd that the bulb would burn out in a little over 3 weeks, but at least the LED is doing its thang.

I've attached more pics with the LED swap. Let me know what you think.

The more I look through these pics in my AG journal, the transformation is just simply amazing. SICC has helped me tremendously throughout this past month. Thanks buddy. I also thank everyone that has given me their inptu as well. I plan on vegging them out for another 2-3 weeks or so, and then it's time to flowers these bad girls. I have the bat guano ready to go, to get some insane buds. The techniflora success grow kit is phenomenal. For those of you that need something is consistent, that kit is the best!

Hey SICC, they're definitely back to a nice green. Plants are growing pretty quickly and the LED seems to be phenomenal. What would you recommend as far as ideal heights before flowering?

The plants will just about triple in size during flowering. So just calculate that into how much room you have to grow.

Topping is where you cut the plant at a certain spot to promote the lower growth to take over and become the new main cola's. So in stead on one fat cola, you have about 4 when done correctly. It keeps the plant short and you can tie down the tops to maximize your space since its just a lil cab.

Yeah its just a suggestion, i just started getting into it and its pretty simple, lets you shape your plant the way you want it, look up LST as well.

Props on the grow so far, jazzy! So did you just throw the seed in the sponge and let the AG do its thing?

Hey SICC, what size should the plant be before being topped?

i like to veg mine out a lil bit before topping, but it can be done fairly early after a node or two of growth, i plan to clone so i want the top im taking to be stacked full of nodes and mature

Bang,

To answer your question...I didnt let AG just do its thing. There is a custom air pump (Rena 200). Custom Tubing. New LED light. And a whole gangload of nutrients to encourage healthy growth and intense flowers.

1 Month today!!!

The girls are looking real healthy. It's about 6" tall and thriving strongly. I've attached pics. Let me know what you think.

Sicc,

What up man, happy Monday to ya. The girls are looking teriffic and technically its only been 2.5 weeks because of that slight period when the girls were all yellow and sick. In your honest opinion are they ahead of schedule, on schedule, or behind schedule?

FYI - The seed strains are:

Purple Mr. Nice Guy (front right)
Medijuana (front left) - slowest growth
God Bud (back left)
