    My Reservoir is in the 80s. Please help!!

    Oh yeah sorry. I do run it continuously. I am building a custom, wooden 3' x 2.5' x 1' aeroponics box with a water proofed and plastic covered interior. I'm hoping the bigger res will help keep the temp down as well. What do you think? Sent from my SPH-L710 using Rollitup mobile app

    Aerogarden first experience. First 16 days fail!!!

    I used GH Flora Series and started with half strength nutes during all cycles and changed reservoirs once a week. If the plants look healthy with no sign of nute burn, the next week I up the strength to 75-100% suggested strength. I found the suggestion online and it worked great for me on my...

    First Grow - Looking for suggestions and advice

    Already smoking on the finished product. I finished with 6 ounces of some fairly sticky buds. Its not as strong as some hydro I've purchased on the street but it definitely gets the job done. I just placed a seed order so the next grow will contain solid genetics. I ordered Blackberry and...

    First Grow - Looking for suggestions and advice

    So the plants are beginning week 10 of the 12/12 light cycle and week 8 since the first female flowers started to show (not just the pre-flowers). Below is a pic of a test bud I clipped from plant #2 a few days ago. Its been drying in a little cardboard box until today. I just tested it for my...

    Sexing during veg...need guesses! LOL

    Just curious. Roughly how long does it take for the pollen sacks to open after the first begin to show? I read up on the subject because I am a beginner on my first grow and most information said to pull the males as soon as you know they are males. Based on that, I pulled all of my males as...

    Vertical hydroponics closet grow

    Man I think this is a sick idea! I'm at the tail end of my first grow (2 plants in an aero system and 1 in a drip system) and I would have to say this is some creative thinking to deal with a confined space. Please post pics along the way.

    ***UPDATE*** I have 3.5 weeks left of flowering just based on time. However, I am buying a 60-100x microscope this weekend to check out the trichome colors. And BTW the trichomes are very prevalent on each of the 3 plants. (pics below) Plant #1 Plant #2 Plant #3

    Dewey Mister Aeroponic Buckets? Anyone use these misters?

    So far so good with the Misters. The only change I had to make was a reduction in res water. I had to drop a gallon so the entire Mister wasn't under water. My reservoir temps have dropped about 5-7 degrees, and my roots are looking awesome. I will post root pics next week as I am headed to the...

    How do the roots in an aerogarden grow?

    On my first grow. I started my seeds in 1 inch rockwool cubes in aerated water until roots were growing out of the bottom of the cubes. Then I placed each cube with a seedling in its own 5 inch net pot filled with hydroton. The pots are now in my aeroponic system, which is a 1.3' square box per...

    PH

    Any particular reason why 5.5 is ideal? Just out of curiosity.

    PH

    I am on my first grow and I am using a 4-pot aeroponic spray system. I have been keeping my pH in the same range as you (5.8-6.0). I am on month 2 of the grow and week 3 since female flowers appeared. I am using General Hydroponics Flora 3 Series and I found that it brings the pH of my res water...

    Dewey Mister Aeroponic Buckets? Anyone use these misters?

    I will be installing them tonight. I will report back after a day or 2. I can say that my root rot problem is damn near gone from the Botanicare additive I used. I was shocked. Sent from my GT-P7510 using Rollitup mobile app

    First Grow - Looking for suggestions and advice

    ***UPDATE*** I changed reservoirs today and reverted back to GH "Transition to Bloom" nutrient strengths to fight signs of nitrogen deficiency (bottom leaves are yellowing and falling off). I have also observed root rot on various areas of the 2 root balls in the aerosystem. To combat this I...

    Dewey Mister Aeroponic Buckets? Anyone use these misters?

    Well guys I broke down and ordered 2 Dewey Misters, one for each of the 2 plants in my aeroponic system. As previously noted, my res temps are way in the danger zone and I have about 6 to 6.5 weeks to go. I already know my res temps will drop because the water pumps are creating the heat...

    Dewey Mister Aeroponic Buckets? Anyone use these misters?

    I just checked out the website and videos, and I would really like to know if these could be used to grow full size plants. The reason being that my current Aeroponic system uses a submersible water pump, which keeps my water temps from 75-80 degrees. One of the 2 females in the system is...

    First Grow - Looking for suggestions and advice

    ***UPDATE*** After changing the reservoirs yesterday, I pinched and bent the tops of all 3 plants. The plants ranged from 4' to 4.5' tall and I was out of head room. I pinched and bent them about a foot from the tops of each plant. All 3 tops (horizontal after pinch & bend) are now standing...

    First Grow - Looking for suggestions and advice

    As of right now I am running out of head room for my babies. All three are currently 3.5' tall and I still have 6.5-7 weeks left of flowering. Either way, below are a few close-up pics of the flowers and the full plants, which are developing quite nicely I might add. Just one thing though. I...

    Question how often to change water and nutes??...

    I am on my first grow and I use 1 AeroFarm drip system and one 4-pot aeroponics system. I change my reservoirs every week because my temps are kind of high 75-80ish. I add 5ml/gallon of 35% H2O2 every other day and have not had a single mold issue. The roots are nice and white. I am at the tail...

    First Grow - Looking for suggestions and advice

    Thanks again man. I'm going to order a 50-100x magnifier so I can keep a extra good eye on them. If I do find balls, would you suggest I trash the plant or branch it may be isolated to?
