First grow in a long time...

Hello all,
I am growing a few local strains of killer bud, I currently have 19 sprout's had a few here and there that didn't make it out of the original 22. I am going to be growing them in my Botanicare Turbogarden Aero. They are 15 day's old from seed and are all doing well, as for lighting I am useing a few CFL's and have a HPS for when they get a little larger. Picture quality isn't the greatest is from a camera phone. Also this is the first time I have used Aeroponics so any input would be greatly appreciated and I look foward to your comments.

Here are the nutes i use also.
I have them on a 18/6 lighting period.

Here is some pics of the inside of my setup. Uses a mag-drive supreme 7 700 gph pump more info on it here.

Nice setup. I have the turbogarden and it is simply amazing. Check out my thread and you might want to think about how many plants youre going to have in the end. My system got real crowded real fast. I ended up with 8 females and now I have wall to wall canopy. I vegged for about 35 days and when I started flowering they were all almost 3' tall. Well Good luck with your grow!

Thanks for the advice glad to see someone else with the turbogarden, its a damn nice machine. I too was concerned about them getting crowed but though I would tie them and bend them a little idk just an idea.

So here's a little update they are 3 wk's now and I'm going to transfer them over to my turbogarden

lol do what the alaskans do to thier "special" children and drown it in the river.

lol muffy, i like that lil plant. I find that's is the little one's that surprise you and turn out to be big busy mother's. Also here's a little update today I transplanted them over, went with 1/4 strength nute's.

A quick update, I have had them in my aero table for a week almost going to change nutrient's tomorrow. They are actually starting to look good, got a few inches out the bottom of the pot's going to increase nutrient strength a little tomorrow to...

Looking good

Two more pic's, damn i lost my lighter

looking good and healthy. So whats going to be your plan of attack? Are you going to squeeze in a bunch of small, single-cola plants, or go for a few monsters?

I truely haven't decided, tomarrow i'm going to flush and maybe set up my little dripper tray that should hold about 4 plants, i'm thinking the strongest will make it or someone is getting a plant for christmas !!! lol

Lovely babies.

Here's some pic's, damn that light is crazy they perked up quite a bit and seem's like they are greener. Also I added some hydrozyme and some SUPERthrive.

Just a quick update, had a few problem's with high temp's (got that taken care of) also bumped my nutrient strength up to 50% which they didn't take too well, so next change I am going to change to 1/3 strength.

Another update, they are growing great now. It's amazing how much they grow over night.
