how come no body likes to read any more knowledge is powerful you should of read all the aero threads 3 times over before you even bought 1 ,,,but im going to give you the truest aero garden start up plan 3 plants a 42w cfl on top of each plant 1 inch away honestly kick the aero tabs to the curb and get 1 liter of flora nova grow and bloom and start plants off immediately on 1/4 strength nutes and plenty of good circulating air ,,, i helped alot of rollit up members and never a good rep whats up wit the appreciation ,,,
420 u'll all thank me when u see my advice pans out
tape the mylar to the back not the sides to let air circulate get the extra cfls or you'll pay 4 it in the long run and a big size fan if you r useing the ag inside a grow box,closet etc make sure temps are correct or u will get a 2 inch plant in 2 mths,,,trust me, i have read just about everything i could find about aerogardens and growing mj. i am just confused as how to set up the mylar paper. am i just supposed to tape it around the aerogarden? i also have put a mini fan up to circulate air in there. as for the rest of my questions, i still haven't found the answers. damnit. im sorry! im a total beginner here. i will be crushed if this doesnt work cause so far the plants are looking craptacular!
420 im here 4 u bro!!!
damn, it seems like i need to smoke. its been one hell of a day, let me tell you!!! ps. im not a bro, im a chic!
good luck with your growsorry fist for assuming you were a dude ,,, ur safe with fires just use a good surge protector its not allot of volts like hps (go to walmart and ask 4 emergency blanket 2.00 )to many plants pick strongest in each pod not tallest most likely males you'll have 7 after 3 weeks you should be able 2 have a idea which ones are female shorter fater males tend to be long and skinny but a malnutrioned female can be stragley and skinny now you'll pick 3 plants out of 7 outside right corner outside left corner and middle pod ,the temperature will get real hot when the ag is on i dont suggest putting it in your closet in the summer to much heat will slow your grow to a crawl closets with ag better in winter but still need allot of strong air movement to keep temps down and make stems real strong ,if you have a room were there are no windows or cover it so you cant see lights on 24/7 outside, grow on a dresser or a cedar chest or a table but u will need 4 extra cfls from walmart 42w equivalant to 150w they are 2700 lumens each and they perfect veg lights you could do a whole grow under them they are so good !!!!!!!!!!!! no miracle grow anything ever not designed 4 ur needs next your not working with allot of room so get flora nova grow and flora bloom (as soon as they sprout give them 1/4 strength nutes and week later give them little less than 1/2 strength and 3 week half strength 4 week full strength 1 tsp.) 1 ltr bottles 20.00 ech i consider it to be the best 4 hydro or soil keeps them growing fast with many side branchs without pruning them check them in the mornig and the night my plants 2 they drink half the res in mornig and night so i keep extra gallon water already nuted for their thirst dont let the roots dry out this grow i didnt use my airstone because they use the water 2 quick any help you need i am here 4 u beautiful ,,,thanks for all the help! ok. so i went to walmart today (unfortunately) and they had no clue what mylar was. i heard you could substitute some sort of wrapping paper or camping blanket. i couldnt find anything like that. but i did manage to find an air stone, some tubing for it, and a pH test kit. im not sure how to put in my airstone (i am blonde, and a stoner, so thats a double whammy for me lol). i also dont know what pH levels are supposed to be at. i also purchased some generic miraclegro nutrients that are all purpose, supposed to work for any type of plant, and it specifically says for hydroponics on the container. you are supposed to add a tablespoon per gallon of water once every 2 to 4 weeks. do you think that is ok to use instead of the aero garden nutrients? also, im trying to figure out the sexes of my plants. i still need to do some research and look at some pics. i have planted 2 seeds in each pod, yeilding a total of 10 plants growing. my friend said thats too many for the aerogarden, and i should try planting like 5 or 7 instead. i wanted to pull out the male plants and leave only the females in. wtf is mylar anyway? is that what i am supposed to ask for when im at the store? maybe you can answer some of my questions.
also, is there a risk for fire? if i were to put my aerogarden in my closet, and move my clothes somewhere else, would that be ok? im worried about the fan thingy too. i have like a 12x12 fan that i have, but should i directly aim it at the aerogarden (of course about 2 feet away and not blasting at it) and keep it in my closet too? fire is what worries me the most. i walked into my house today and it felt especiallly warm in my bedroom. it could have been the heat from outside, but i have a feeling its from the aerogarden. is that something i should be worried about or is there little cause for concern in this matter?
420 p.s i love blondes and stoners lol420 p.s i love blondes and stoners lol[/quote]
id take the mylar off the sides bad for air circulation its illegall to order seeds from any country you just need to find a seller who has the customers best intrests at heart and i can only think of -1 -(uno no dos) and no matter if you rotate every daty all your roots are going to form one big huge webbed mass so if you pull a plant be carefull and have some hygrogeime i think its how u spell it your roots will eat dead roots with this sh@t ,
420 start off 1/4 tsp then week 2 -1/2 tsp and so on get ur babbys used 2 feeding thats what i do with flora nova nothing betttter!!!!!!! or u'll b sorry
