SpiderBall [First Time] Aerogarden Grow Journal

Thanks for the post dude. Ya, they're pretty damn big
I vegged for a super long time. not sure if you've seen the other grows on this forum before but I'm not too worried just yet as I've seen some MONSTER plants come out of the AG.

Is it too late to prune once in flowing state? I don't know but I'm guessing yes as I'd be cutting off all the new sprouting flowers it seems...

Anyways...I have high hopes for them...soon I expect to be loading my Volcano with some BOMB ASS AG BUD

I'm jealous of your Volcano. lol Gotta love those AG's, you think they're going to outgrow it? How high do the lights go on your model?

I'd have to go in there and measure it...but the girls are sleeping right now
I'd say like...3 feet? I have to detach the lights tonight. Gonna set up another set of CFL's also, right in front of the plants cause it looks like the front is getting limited light... I'll take some pics. I think the only worry is lack of space in the Res for the roots....but I don't think it'll really be a problem.

Yes the Volcano is the shit
I'm fucking DONE with pipes. Starts irritating my chest too much...
I can hang with joints and the Volc....
Used to use the a pipe so much mainly cause it was fast and instant...but I threw it away.
Better to roll a J or just pack this V. Way better....
And the J and the V result is different highs....I think, lol

hey man thanks for the info on my journal just took a close look at yours and it gets me excited about the future lol but good look with everything ill be watching and taking notes

Yo dude, Np. Just subscribed to your grow. Bout to post some pics I just took...

Sup

Continuation UPDATE
Ok, so here's a continuation update from my last. I had alot of shit to do with things and tonight I got around to doing them and wanted to get some updated pics up.

Things I did:
I was using gift ribbon to tie my fuking CFL from the closet hanger.....
I finally replaced that shit with some good metal hanging chain.

I drilled 4 holes in the AG hood and I used Zip Ties to secure it to the closet hanger.
NOTE!!! ZIP TIES RULE!!!!! I even used them to help support some of the nodes....I'll take those pics next week prolly.
I moved 1 of the CFL's from the side to the front. Take a look at the pic.
The plants are getting LOTS of light now.

Made little clone set ups

-----

The Clones!
I took pics of one that I set up in the AG (her roots coming out the side of the moss) and the other clone that was just in a clear glass of water (roots coming straight out of stem).
So, I gotta go back to the post where we were talking about clones, cause one of the dudes that posted there got me to think about the light issue. And I mean about using a solid color cup to keep the light away from the roots in order to avoid root rot. Thanks GOODness for that dude....cause I'm suprised it hasn't happened yet, but I made these little clone set ups for now...
I realize I'll have to get them something better as they grow. I plan on changing thier water out every 1-2 days until I get a proper set up done...

OK here some pics!!

Ok, it was HSA that got me to fix my clones
Thanks dude!! ^_^

Everything looks great man, nice work

Looks like the time and effort invested is paying off well. Really looking goooood man.....gonna be great !

Thanks Mr. Natural and thanks SICC!!!
Ya I'm super happy with how it's turning out. My only sad thing is that I'm so busy and just don't get the time I'd like to be around it more

Ok, I'm about to post pics for this week! No real updates or news...but got some pics.

Thanks again!!!

Not sure if i asked before how many watts are you flowering with?

look at those hairs coming in. Your lady is goin through puberty! This is awesome man. Keep it up. Question: do you ever just sit by your plant and smoke? I find myself doing it everyday just imagining what its going to look like, smoke like, taste like.

@ SICC - Yo, so there are 4 x 100w Equiv Soft White CFL's + the AG Hood

I had to turn the 2 that are on the right side off last night cause the plant is SUPER tall now and I have to mount those lights from the ceiling now...prolly gonna do it now actually...

@ KappnKush - Dude, the post before my last update, I mention the little time I have...and that's EXACTLY what I mean. It's been 4 weeks now that I've been working at this new freaking insane time sink job....and what I miss is exactly what you said.... I usually roll my desk chair over, with a lit fattie or a bag full of vape + my headphones and just CHILL with the plant. So therapeutic....SOOOo fucking therapeutic.
I mean, I still do when I can, but not like before.
I didn't actually wonder what it would smoke or taste like....as much as feel like it was my hoe chillin with me....lol
I blow her some smoke...but then I feel like...that's like on the South Park DVD's where they gave their pet Pig bacon to eat? Eatin Bacon with Makin....or whatever...haha.

Thanks for the comments guys...

oh ok, you should get more light for her.

Done! Ok, I just added 1 more CFL, except this one is a 75W equiv Soft White.
So now it's...

4 x 100Wequiv Soft Whites
1 x 75Wequiv Soft White
1 x AG hood

I re situated a pair of the 100's. I installed a little hanger from the celing and I got the lights hanging from that now.

check out the pics, let me know what you think.

Good lookin out!!!!

Nice work Spider. They look great.

Hell yeah Spider. The only thing I see is you should turn those cfls sideways. The plant will get more of its light that way instead of you pointing then at the light. Lights without reflectors your only gettin fractions of what you would if you ghettoes up some kind of reflector. I just saw female pistils on one of mine today and Im super stoked now. Keep it up and I have updated pics now on my thread so drop by.

What is the actual wattage of your CFL's? Plant is looking good, how tall is it now?

WEEK 15 since Germination (FLOWERING - START Of 6th Week)

Hmm...trying this out...
Pics tomorrow

I wanna know how much longer I need to flower?
