Petition For An Aerogarden Sub-Forum

[Old in the Way]

Please tell me your not referring to my grow.....unless you want me to start excerping quotes from your posts in that Aerogarbage-first grow thread of yours.

That set-up you are getting mad props about....was it the spider mites or the 4-500 you spent to grow those two plants they were the most impressed with??

 

[Old in the Way]

I guess his mom got home....had to stash the aerogarden and the laptop huh??

 

[pantzmtb]

No old it was someone elses.

Do you only get spidermites in aerogrows? Think not. And its the fact that I spent 400 on something i didnt need. I go to the store for weed. This was an experiment of mine that turned out pretty damn good. and i have 3 plants btw my roomate dosnt know and its nice and quite, i can pick up my grow site and move it whereever i made need to.

This is gunna be an endless pissing match, im happy with my aerogrow and so are the other guys and u guys are happy with ur DWC, rubbermaid things and were all good. We all have the same goal of growing bomb here so why bitch about a cool contraption?? I give u props for making a nice big grow site for 40 bucks outa rubbermaids, i wish i had the room and the balls.

Your only gay if you push back.... Lets put this one to rest already..

 

[Old in the Way]

Oh, its all good my man....was chiming in to get Al's attention and was confirming I didn't get my op caught in the crossfire.....

I have my opinion on just about everything but usually keep it to myself....for instance....your plants looked good....see I would leave it at that.

All good

Like I said, just trying to grab Al for a minute of his time.

BTW, its top-drip

i agree. granted i want to build my own dwc so badly, but i don't have the space. once i have the space, i will def. be using that, but for now to learn on and pump out a few ounces for my personal use that i don't have to pay for, this is great. i ultimately agree that dwc's are better, but better for larger scale. when i can build mine, i want to do 5-8 plants at a time. but for now, i'll settle for 2 or 3

 

[Al B. Fuct]

Al B.-- go check out my ag thread in my sig and tell me its a piece of garbage!

Yep, I've read all 12 pages.

It's an Aerogarbage. You've just made a stab at upgrading it.

You admit to 'not knowing anything before 7 weeks ago' and couldn't even be bothered to read the FAQ about the life cycle of cannabis (you didn't know how to induce flowering). Like a blind dog finding a bone, you have made every noob mistake you possibly could, blundering your way though, even managing to use an MH for flowering. You're doing pretty well for reinventing every wheel you've encountered.

Tell me what the aerogarden lacks that makes your grows that much better??

Where to start?

* HPS lighting for flowering.
* A watering system that didn't cost a fortune and which requires almost no maintenance. I spent about the same as an Aerogarbage on my flood trays & tanks, but I can run 96 plants in flower.
* A proper grow room with thermostatic ventilation control.
* Cooltubes!

I live in cali, i been to big grow ops and those guys are givin my lil system mad props..

What's cali?

Is something falling over? Is that what the props are for?

And to the other guy talkin trash, ur running 3 security lamps for your grow, you have no room to speak IMO.

What's a proper grow light, other than an HPS security light with a reflector more suited to growing plants... rather than keeping schoolkids out of your yard at night?

 

[pantzmtb]

Old- how could they look better?

I hear your spectrum bs and all that I got that light because it was all that was available, I get to return it in the end if im not happy.

Al- Inducing flowering is just turning the lights off. what special technique/ backflips do i need to do to do it your way? Cooltubes-why? My light is 75 degrees with the fan on with the thermostat right next to the light.

See you guys have failed already with your one track mindset. The work I am into involves thinking outside the box. you try things people say wont work and figure out why and improve them. Learn from your mistakes.

And yea, i could have built a 96pot growsite too. however i didnt want to. If you could fit 96 sites in my closet be my guest, id be more than happy to give you a stab at it!

 

[ripz]

i dont know much about aerogardens tbh i thought it wasa toy lol.sory dont mean to offend anyone using one they just look so tiny. if this many people are feeling them tho maybe they should have they're own forum.
peace
ripz

yeah i think a dwc forum would be good too seein as its my hydro method of choice, anyone got a pic of an aerogarden with some decent bud in it? (grown in it not being stored in it lol)

if its not viable to grow weed then what is the point? again not trying to offend just cant understand why you'd use something if there is no evidence of it being able to do the job properly.anyone got any figures on dry yield off one of these?

and ffs stop arguin you sound like a pair of girls, lets all just have a look at the evidence see if the lil thing works or nt if it dont then its shite and anyone who uses one is wasting there time and wasting there money.
peace
ripz

someone must have some harvest pics in an aerogarden and some dry weight figures

whats the actual imensions and wattage on these thgs from what 've seen they look like you'd be lucky to get a plant to run full term unless maybe if its a dwarf

im reading mate, thts all ive asked is that seein as you areogardeners are here asking for a forum it'd be nice if one or two of you could post some finished plant pics in hereand maybe give details of dry weight.
im genuinely interested in wether they are viable or not.
ripz

so and so says he gets dont mean anything mate i could tell youi just cropped a 50oz plant but that dont make it so. have you finished a grow in oe? or any of you here?

thats all leaf!! i wouldnt be happy with that

wtf just cos i aint agreeing with you no need to go on the offensive, i'm genuinely interested not trying to put it down at all if thats the way you've chosen to go then thats your choice, good luck to you. i just cant see how a decent yield would ever be attainable a 250w hps a few seeds and some dirt would do better tbh m8. please dont get offended again. why are you all so damn touchy?everyone can hav they're opinion and last time i looked this is a public forum so i will go where i please and post where i please.
ripz

i was thinking might be good for cloning with a humidity dome over it. but im gonna unsubscribe from this thread now anyway way too much hostility when all i've done is ask for info. i thought that was what we were here for. sicc take a valium or something mate

No, you havent been asking for info. You've been bashing. Go read your posts again.

i've just read my posts again here they are;
i havent bashed anything, i just gave my uninformed opinion and asked for you all to give me some info that might change my mind wich you were unable to do, at wich point you got mad cos not everyone thinks the same as you and all started throwing your toys out the pram, bunch of kids playing with what seems to be (with no evidence to prove otherwise) kids toys.
homegrownhairy suits you cos you is gonna have some weak ass fluffy hairy buds when that things finished.
good luck though i hope it satisfies you and who knows maybe next time you will be inspired to do a grown up's grow
peace

[YaK]

umm... so.... yeah, ... can we get a sub forum up in this bitch or what????


Did anyone ask a moderator?

 

[revtek]

/bump

I'm in!

 

[nunof]

Agreed! Start up an AG thread.

 

[n00604173]

i posted in the request section yesterday and talked to some moderators. i'm waiting to hear back if we're approved for our own forum

 

[Jonus]

Another case for a subforum

Something to think about, the AeroGarden gods have obviously got a few things wrong. AeroGardenists need to work out what these are and ram it home to them where they are fucking up.

If you look at AeroGarden 3, its just the previous model, that someone photoshopped the dimensions, shrinking the width.

Theyre up to AeroGarden 6 now which is just the same old shit with a 24 hour light cycle and 6 pods...big deal.

Just a few that come to mind. Too shallow a tank, not enough lighting, wrong lighting hood design, inflexible lighting schedules, heat susceptable nute tank, light leaks into the nute tank, needs an EC meter, needs a pH meter, needs an air stone etc etc

By the time you have made all the adaptions to AeroGarden, you end up like mine, and overpriced black plastic box with 5 holes in the top and an airstone doing the work inside.

Now I know we are not here to help some corporation get its shit right, but people are still going to try and grow weed in the AeroGarden so you either have to put pressure on the Aerogods to make whatever changes in further updated models, or build one that is based on the same desktop, countertop idea that works to its potential.

 

[Al B. Fuct]

The work I am into involves thinking outside the box. you try things people say wont work and figure out why and improve them. Learn from your mistakes.

You've been so busy making mistakes that you have PLENTY to learn... but will you have any dope to show for it?

Trying new things is all well and good if you are an experienced grower with a productive op. THAT'S the time you should be trying new things.... NOT when you are a noob on your first grow! Noobs should be using every tried and tested method they can find.

..and speaking of mistakes, here we have another 1st time growing noob, this one in a skirt, trying to make herself look good:

Al just shut the fucc up already, you aint shit and neva gone be shit

Well sweetie, there's 217,722 readers who think your training bra straps are too tight:

When you become better read than I am, you can try your catty little schoolgirl jibes again sometime. You'll have figured out how to spell by then, I hope.

Now go back to the other noobie's circle-jerk thread and tell him how well he's doing.

 

[n00604173]

that's why i'm rockin the classic. it's basic and i can adapt it. i don't see the point in telling aerogrow how to improve a product that is built specifically for their needs of growing veg and herbs with pre-set nute tabs. they've got it set up nicely for what the sell it for, but to grow buds with it, it's always going to have to be adapted and updated. although once you get your nutes down and get an external 400w hps, you'll be fine with just using the base for a cuople plants. i'm just using mine until i get the money saved up for an hps and get my dwc built.

 

[HomeGrownHairy]

Why would you spend $200 on something that just waters plants (and that's all an Aerogarbage does), if you're going to immediately replace the weak CFL lighting with HPS anyway? It's like jacking up the radiator cap on a Hyundai and driving a BMW under it.

Why not spend a little time researching and then $50 at the hdwe store to make a simple watering system and use the remaining $150 on improved ventilation?

Al - I like my little herb garden. LITTLE is the key for me. If you get more time, you might check out some of the finished product here. It's not bad when you get the hang of it. I can grow the strain I want at a reasonable price and not run out and have to go look for it..Solves my problem of high prices and scant availability locally here.

Keep in mind we AG folks know what it does and accept it's limitations. I dont need more than I can personally use so it's actually GREAT for me. It'll solve my problem of paying $100 for 1/4, like I did earlier today. Man,that sucks, especialy in this economy.

Thanks for all your input.kiss-ass

THIS is the first post you quote.......hmmmm, go back just a tad further.

 

[fitzyno1]

I agree that an AG is a total waste of time and money.

But i cant see RIU making a sub forum for it as it is still a hydroponic system.

People here who grow in them keep saying, 'so what, i'm growing in it and whats it got do with anyone else'. Well it has alot to do with everyone else who reads the post. If a newbie comes on the forum they are misinformed and reads the bullshit about how good they are. It will direct a newbie from setting up a proper system, and wasting months of their time and money on pure rubbish, when they could've grown alot more dense bud faster and at the same cost or cheaper.

 

[Broozer Bud]

as much as i would love to not be cheap and be creative, i have very little usable space. Maybe in like a year or so ican have my own place and do that shit official. but for know this is the best option.

there sould be a subforum for aerogarden, despite how much people say they are no good. this way our conversations and questons won't bother others.

 

[ismokedyoblunt]

put up the sub-forum
