GOOD LUCK MAN! u might want to add another light for the flowering stages. get some CFL's or LED's or better yet an HPS. i started my babies in the AG and transplated them into a waterfarm w/ 400w HPS. im getting about 1oz + per plant doing it this way.

hey ghost im new 2 the rollitup site and got my aerogaren a lil over 2 weeks ago.. i germinated them in a papertowel for 4-5 days then put them into pods and then into the aerogarden.. I lost 2 seeds and replanted 2 more.. 5 of the plants are going along good and the 2 I replanted are just now sprouting.. I am still using the herb nutez it came with and i think they look fine.. They are getting pretty bushy actually .. Im waitin for the 2 to get to about 2 inches then im going to start flowering.. I have seen a few guys on this site buy the figure 8 cord from radio shack and plug it into the lights and put a 12/12 timer on it this way.. Then put a chain to be able to extend the light up higher than the 24" the arm extends to.. I also put a 4" air stone w/ a 10 gal fish tank air pump. Im about to be at 3 weeks veg now and just joined yesterday and have learned alot.. Thanks guys this site is awesome

Hey All,

I just started 2 Fem Snow Whites in my Pro 200; about how many days went by before they shot out of the foam? I just put mine straight in; no germ etc.

Thanks!

Need some help here... My babies have been growing for about 6-8 weeks now (I don't know the exact date that i started, rookie mistake). I'm using the fox farm trio pack (Big Bloom, Big Grow, and Tiger Bloom). It seems to be going pretty good but now looking at some of the other pics on this thread idk. My babies seem to be alot smaller for the amount of time that they've been growing. I have the lights hooked to a timer and set to 12/12 with the pump on 24hrs a day. I have two air stones in the water, i check the pH daily, two fans hooked up to improve air flow, and i have a sweet digital temp/humidity gauge (keeping temp/humid. between 70-80. Check out my pics below... Anyone have any suggestions?? Also how do i determine sex?? Is it too early??
I'm going to be building a box setup, lined with foil and insulated, and have a light bar hanging above the plants in the next couple of days. But other than that i think i'm doing everything right.... Any other ideas?!?!?!
I no there's a lot of pics but i just wanted to give ya guys everything I have to look at to see if ya can help...

hey man. u might just have a short stocky strain. do u kno what they are? and i hear that foil is not good. use mylar. its cheap and it reflects light way better. foil can also cause hot spots and burn the plants.

im new to this to bro but for 1 ur lights are way to high.. U should raise the light when the plant is 2-3" away from the light.. Looks like ur plants arent getting enuf light man.. I would lower the light. Ive read alot and it says to try and keep the temperature in the room around 68 degrees and ph is supposed to be at 5.8.. And also u need to check the temperature of the water needs to be 72 degrees or lower.. Hope i was a help bro.. O ya last when did u start ur 12/12 light schedule.. People say u should start seeing lil white hairs come out after 14 days of flowering on the 12/12 light schedule.. And if ur still having trouble i was told to do 48 hours of darkness to force flowering..

i agree. keep the lights low as possible. ive made 1inch spacers so i can gradually move up the lights 1 inch at a time.

Yea no I just raised the lights up to take the pics and i was changing the water and adding nut.'s, I always keep the lights about two inches above the plants. It usually is sitting in a big rubber made container that i lined with foil as well. I have no idea what the stains are i just kept finding seeds from some really good nug's lately so i decided to give this a whirl. I actually just started the 12/12 cycle and hooked the lights up to a timer using the ps2 cord. So i guess i'll start to see some changes. I just ordered some ferminized northern bright seeds and i think i'm gonna get a 2nd AG and have two of them going so i can start the new seeds and start some clones from these plants at the same time. Thats a good idea to use the mylar, never thought of that, gonna change that out tomorrow. I have the pH between 5 and 6, the water temp is usually about 70, i try to keep the humidity about 70% and the temp kinda fluctuates but usualy around 75 on avg. This is kinda my test run i guess ya can say. Gonna try to work out all the kinks and see what happens. When i get these new seeds tho... than its on!! I'll keep ya guys posted when i get some new growth and put some more pics up. Is it too early to determine the sex tho?? Thats what i'm having the toughest time with... I'd hate to have a male sitting in there fucking my females to death... no pun intended. Thanks for the advice tho guys, really appreciate it!! If anyone can tell the sex let me know... peace and happy growing

Use the hps for the entire life of the plant. The autos grow just as well under 2700K as they do 6500K, you dont need 2 different kelvin temps and your HPS will put out a lot more lumens. More lumens = bigger plants. with the autos bigger plants = more bud.
