Hey Vette, which model of the aerogarden do you have? I was looking at them online and there are quite a few to choose from, I am having trouble narrowing down which one I'd like to save up for.

you always make me laugh in the mornin CJ, im pretty sure i like you.
yeah, she just got done pancakin it up, i just popped in Goonies...who remembers Goonies?!?
i take it one step further...i dont even take the tree apart, i just pick it up and carry it to its corner in the basement. it take me 5 minutes to set up my tree!Same here Miss Moffit, and mine even has all the lights attached, lol. No mess here. My dogs would either eat the tree, drink the water or pee on it, lol.

I am super thrilled. It worked beautifully, I am grinning from ear to ear. Thanks!Hi girls..
I am using HPS but this last plant had a lot of sativa like qualities and I like real dense buds, you know super super tight where you break it apart and it puffs out a little. Compressing them in the paper really worked.

So you only veg under the areo garden, you don't flower under it? Where do you get HPS, and what kind of imprint does it leave on your power bill? I've only used CFL's myself and they kind of suck for flowering, I'd like to get more for my efforts.

i always looked at those and thought they were a joke....you really think an aerogarden is worth having? it just seems so small and built for a housewifes countertop(no offence to my wake n bake housewives, i love ya). do you like it because its small?

The power bill might go up $12.00 every month you use it
I have just used CFL's in the past ,But Im done with them for flowering..Im going HPS .. its the ONLY true way besides the sun to get tight dense buds

i get most of the lights ive bought at my local hydro shop used. ive gotten a full air-cooled 1000W rig for 180, a full non-cooled 600W for 120, a 250W with a batwing for 75, and i bought 6 1000w ballasts for 50/each once. i love used lights!.
as for you light bill, your ComEd right? @ .18Kwh heres what your light will cost - 29.81 for a 400W, 44.06 for a 600W, and 71.28 for a 1000w
its worth it too....the proof is in the pudding

That is my plan too, I've also been looking at wood burning kitchen stoves, wouldn't hurt to have one, just in case.
I'm way south of you Slik, we're Ameren around here. No hydro store to be seen for many miles either.

They da shit, if you don't mine feeding them. Kinda a pain to learn how to get goin, but I am one hell of a firestarter now! I love mine, when it is REALLY cold I pay $45 a week for heat. When it is like it is now, sorta cold, I pay $45 every 2 weeks. And I keep it toasty! (Hate the cold. This swamp bunny shudda never left the south.)
The only reason I may stay on the grid is so they can pay me for my excess. Oh, and you LET them be late, I will fine tham mercilessly! It would be so satisfying to get a check from THEM every month..... Now if I can figger out how to do it with the phone......

I have the same feeling about this as you do, but i wonder, will they pay me the same price for power as they expect me to pay them? There's the rub.
I would keep a regular kitchen stove, but they way I see it, things on earth are only going to get worse. There may be times where things improve for a bit, but then they'll go back downhill. Not to menton, those winter storms with power outages. Those seem to get worse every year. We get lucky, we've never been without power for weeks at a time like some people are, but you never know.

Wow Sunny, nice buds. What is this newspaper method ? I haven't heard of it?

I read it out here. You wrap the bud in newspaper and tie them with cord and then dry as normal. It compresses the buds down so they are real dense. I am going to weigh this as soon as my batteries re charge, the buds done are heavy and thick. I am impressed with this method so far....
