Let me just say how greatful I am that I found this site though I can't seem to get a response to a new post. I purchased an AG deluxe a little over a week ago, and my first issue was the roots growing upwards towards the lights. Reading several posts here, I see pretty much everyone else who has used an AG has had the same problem. I flipped them over and tucked the roots in, and they seem to be doing very good after about 7 days (I did not germinate, just dropped 3 bag seeds about a cm down in each one of the AG sponges). I will provide pics ASAP.
My question is, do anyone of you who use the AG add any additional nutrients or anything else to the water tank? Or if you use the provided nutrient tablets, how many do you use every two weeks?
Also, several post said that the AG is not sufficient for flowering, when some posts said it was. Will the plants flower using just the AG? obviously hps would be better, I just wanted to know if I'm wasting my time if I don't plan on using anything but the AG...
Thank alot for any help, winnn420
