First time grower attempting Aerogarden

[FuturesPast]

what kind of water are ou using? It looks like cal mag def I think. Are you using Ro water? Try a little tapwater once it is dechlorinated. Or use cal mag but I bet you dont have any. I am not sure, that is what I would do but ask someone else. I dont think you need any nutes yet either.

I have an RO system my dad uses for his salt water aquariams that i get my water from. dunno what cal mag is, but i took out all the water and replaced it with nothing but RO water, no nutes, nothin. Only other thing running right now is the airstone and i have that on 24/7. sitting on herb/basil cycle as of now, have a small fan rigged in my closet just for a little air flow..

for weed if you use a setting them tomato or salad greens are the best settings i read that in a hightimes

i dont have any extra lighting as of now, but i can always get some. suggestions?

well currently the ones on the A/G hood are for the vegitative state of the plant cause its more blue spectrum light which is whats needed for vegging. for flowering i would suggest cfl's 23w=100w replacement, but use soft white or 2700k or lower these bulbs give off more red spectrum light which is what plants love when flowering.

as for those spots i know you said your checking ph but it looks like ph to me i had the same problem until i got a digital meter and saw my ph was off the roof 8.0-9.0
needs to be in the range of 5.5-6.0
After that my new growth never showed signs of it again. hope this helped good luck

Bumpdate-

So guys, my plants are kinda iffy. Im planning on taking 4-5 out of my aerogarden and blocking up the holes, but i dont know which plants i should keep. Is it a wise idea to keep more than 1? heres some pics.. alot of my plants except for my biggest one have those red dots, but some seem to be growing ok still.. but im not sure. check out the pics and give me some advice please!

edit-definetely keeping the plant in the 7th pic and last pic(same plant).Should i keep another or just stick with this one? thanks in advance everyone

always good to keep more than 1 I would suggest 3 you dont want that one to be a male lol. The more you have the better the chance to get a girl . To bad the A/G is not equipped to handle all seven cannabis plants. Keep the healthiest plants

Just read some of your stuff about using the aerogarden. How did that work out for you, I am using one and am a month in with 7 going strong. Any advice on when to start budding?

Thank

I noticed on your grow that you took the paper covers off the AG nets. I was reading somewhere on here that it was important to leave those on to prevent mold becuase to much light gets in. And in one of your pics it looks like there is some green stuff on top of the foam. But it could be the pic. I am very new to this, so I'm wondering if the paper is important cause I peeled some off. Maybe it doesn't matter but would like to know for sure.

Hello, on my first grow as well with the aerogarden. Had the same dots on my leafs as well i flushed the system and held off on the ferts!! cleared right up they are now plush green and on the right track ====== Did you get the cord needed to plug your lights into a timer for bloom time? dont use any other setting except the SALAD GREENS its the only one that will leave your pump on 24/7 and there is no 12/12 for light so you need the cord! hope i didnt repeat and info... good luck

be careful with the ag pump... I have a black 7-pod and that mother fucking pump heated my water up to 90 degrees when i installed my cfls. Bought the figure 8 cord just using airstone now and the temp is low 70's. When the roots are hitting the water its good to turn off the pump anyways. Happy growing and keep dat ph in check!
